The Best Garlic Butter

Posted by ~Nimz~  

This definitely is THE BEST garlic butter I've ever had! I served it at a dinner party with some foccacia bread and it was the most-requested item on the table. I crushed about 7-8 fresh garlic cloves instead of using bottled garlic and it was... — dessertgirl718 Sep 29, 2008

Spinach, Apple and Pecan Salad

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Sharlene~W  

The dressing on this salad is FABULOUS...and so easy to make! I tripled it so I'd have a little extra to serve on the side. The other changes I made were to add dried cranberries and feta, use romaine instead of spinach, and glazethe nuts in some... — dessertgirl718 Sep 29, 2008

Congo Bars

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Mimi in Maine  

These bars are wonderful! My grandmother used to make these all the time, so one day when I had a craving for them I decided to do a little web-searching and found this recipe. As soon as they came out of the oven both my boyfriend and my dad were... — dessertgirl718 Aug 12, 2008

Spinach Artichoke Lasagna

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by ~Rita~  

Fabulous recipe! I served this with some foccacia bread (Rosemary - Garlic Focaccia) and a side salad and everyone LOVED it. If you like spinach artichoke dip, then this is the dish for you. The roasted red peppers are a wonderful addition and add great flavor... — dessertgirl718 Aug 12, 2008

Italian Black Bean & Zucchini Risotto

Posted by Dancer^  

Made this for a dinner party and it was raved over! I changed a few things though that I would recommend for better flavor: start out by sauteing some garlic and onion in the olive oil, add 1/2 cup of white wine to the rice before adding more... — dessertgirl718 Jul 28, 2008

Lasagna Spirals

(3 people found this helpful) Posted by * Pamela *  

VERY good recipe! I actually doubled it and did one pan using the noodles and one pan using eggplant: slice the eggplant lengthwise about 1/4 inch thick, brush with olive oil and broil 2-3 minutes on each side, then add filling and roll up like... — dessertgirl718 May 5, 2008

M & M Dream Bars

Posted by GaylaJ  

These were SO good. I took them to a Superbowl party, froze the leftovers, and served them at another event. They freeze well too! The combination of the sweet, crumbly streusel, M & Ms and thick peanut butter layer is to die for. They're quite... — dessertgirl718 Feb 26, 2008

Extra Moist Cornbread with Sour Cream

Posted by Stewie  

If you like dry, crumbly cornbread, then this is not the recipe for you. It is soooo good though. I made a batch for a chili cook-off at work and everyone kept asking for the recipe. It doesn't need any sugar in my opinion - there's sugar in the... — dessertgirl718 Feb 26, 2008

Martha Stewart's Baked Eggplant (Aubergine) Parmesan

Posted by Sana  

I've been wanting to try my hand at eggplant parmesan for some time now, and this recipe caught my eye because it wasn't as high-fat as others I've seen in which you FRY the eggplant. I used seasoned breadcrumbs and added fresh basil to the... — dessertgirl718 Feb 5, 2008

Spinach Mushroom Lasagna Roll-Ups With Gorgonzola Cream Sauce

Made this for a dinner party...alongside eggplant parmesan...and it was fabulous! Great flavor, and not that difficult to prepare. The sauce took a bit longer than stated, but other than that, prep was fairly easy. I also reduced the fat by using... — dessertgirl718 Feb 5, 2008

Cheese Cilantro Cornbread

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Derf  

I've made this recipe several times and it always turns out heavenly. The combination of the cilantro and cheese goes great with a bowl of chili. And regular cheddar or a Mexican cheese blend is just as good as the jalapeno cheese. It's lowfat too... — dessertgirl718 Jan 23, 2008

Cheesecake Factory Carrot Cake Cheesecake

Posted by MissMeagan  

Made this as a Thanksgiving dessert and everyone LOVED it! I wasn't as impressed...seemed to have too much carrot cake and not enough cheesecake. But everyone else wanted the recipe - so I guess that's all that matters! — dessertgirl718 Jan 23, 2008

Bourekakia (Baklava 'cigars')

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by evelyn/athens  

Absolutely wonderful! I followed the recipe exactly except for putting a little more filling in each cigar - only made about 4 dozen but that was plenty. A little labor-intensive, but not anymore so than regular baklava. They're also not as messy,... — dessertgirl718 Jan 23, 2008
