Radish Spread

I got a ton of radishes from my farm co-op and didn't know what to do with them - and then I found this recipe. I used low fat cream cheese and SKIPPED the butter. It was a great great dip. We snacked on it using crackers and cucumber rounds.... — Gidget265 Oct 21, 2009

I'm sorry to be a downer, but after forgetting the baking powder the first time - I made a second batch. The second time they were quite good... However, the part about not mixing too much and the gluten development is a bit heavy and impacted... — Gidget265 Oct 18, 2009

Like this recipe needs another 555th review... I doubled the butter / garlic and the breadcrumbs per other reviewers for 4 large boneless skinless chicken breast — each cut in half. I had more than enough to coat the chicken. May need extra to... — Gidget265 Oct 12, 2009

Southwest Chicken

Posted by cookinrooky  

I LOOOVED this chicken. Seriously 10 out of 10! Based on the two negative reviews - we only used 2 TBL loosly packed brown sugar. We put all the rest of the spices (plus the sugar) into a big zip lock bag. Then cut 2 lbs boneless / skinless... — Gidget265 Jul 12, 2009

Used this recipe as a base. Used wine instead of beer, red wine vinegar instead of cider vinegar. Also used 2 whole garlic heads — way more than 24 cloves and it measured up 3/4 C. Seriously 3/4 C garlic and the guests didn't even notice the... — Gidget265 Jun 28, 2009

Kfc Coleslaw

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Sharlene~W  

Recipe is excellent. Will use regularly! While I had the food processor out I actually chopped 2 heads of cabbage and doubled the dressing. Chopping the cabbage & carrots small is key. Hope it keeps the week - will mix new batch periodically! — Gidget265 May 17, 2009

Ok, so I'm going to be the dissenting opinion here... I made the pork mix without any problems. Wondered what everyone was talking about with the time consuming part... Let's just be clear it is the stuffing and sealing of the wontons. I used a... — Gidget265 May 16, 2009
