Cold Spinach Dip

Posted by mrsmeduck  

This was fantastic for a hot summer day. I accidentally forgot the green onions and Parmesan, but it didn't seem to need them. I will try them next time though! I also switched out the vegetable soup mix for a packet of Uncle Dan's ranch dressing... — queenofeats Aug 4, 2009

Means' Classic Pie Crust

(3 people found this helpful) Posted by kiwidutch  

From the bottom of my heart, I thank this recipe. When my husband requested peach pie for this birthday this year, I felt an intense dread creeping in on me. You see, I have always had great difficulty in rolling crusts for anything in the past.... — queenofeats May 30, 2009

Fresh Peach Brown Sugar Pie

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Courtly  

Thanks so much for helping me live through my husband's birthday request this year! I'm a novice to pie, let alone peach pie, so I'm really proud of myself for succeeding. My husband was thrilled, and I would be very surprised if I manage to get... — queenofeats May 30, 2009

Bow Tie Pasta With Broccoli and Broccoli Sauce

Posted by sugarpea  

My husband and I really like this recipe, and use it frequently. I recommend using salted butter. (You're splurging on butter anyway, right?) If you don't, be aware that adding salt will bring out a good deal of flavor in the finished sauce. Most... — queenofeats Feb 18, 2009

Cathead Biscuits

Posted by xtine  

These are fabulous, especially given how easy they were to make! I've made them twice now, once for Christmas dinner and once again for my family while traveling. Everyone raved about them! I recommend serving with a spicy topping like apple or... — queenofeats Feb 18, 2009

"blond" Minestrone

Posted by Glori-B  

This is now officially one of my favorite recipes on Zaar! I will be making this as often as I can. I really enjoyed the ease of preparation and cooking - it was one of the nicest times I've spent in the kitchen in recent memory, and the flavor... — queenofeats Jan 12, 2009

Bacon and Cheese Cocktail Swirls

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Humble Bee  

This made for an excellent impromptu Christmas morning breakfast, as my husband and I found ourselves snowbound and unable to fly out to be with family as intended, let alone get to a grocery store. We love asiago cheese so we tried replacing the... — queenofeats Jan 12, 2009

Oatmeal and Raisin Spice Cookie Bars

Posted by Cookin-jo  

This was an excellent recipe - so simple and easy to make! I had to substitute almond extract for vanilla, and I didn't have any raisins - the end result tasted great, if a little bit different from the typical oatmeal cookie. I plan on making... — queenofeats Nov 23, 2008

Creamy Tomato Basil Tortellini Soup

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by DianeNJ  

This was, simply put, divine. I was a little bit hesitant to try this because my husband and I are not fond of tomatoes, but I thought there might be enough other flavors in the dish to balance it out. I am SO glad I took the plunge! We halved the... — queenofeats Nov 11, 2008

French Onion Soup

Posted by Grandpa & Grandma Williams  

This was a wonderful recipe to try out on a cold, rainy evening. I am normally hesitant to try crock-pot recipes that require pre-prep, as I am not a morning person and bad things tend to happen if you ask too much of me before noon - this was... — queenofeats Nov 10, 2008

Fried Portabella Mushroom Strips

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Mitch G.  

I can't find where to give a fifteen star review, so I'll have to settle for five. This was one of the best recipes we've tried from Zaar so far, and it couldn't have been easier. If you love mushrooms, particularly the fried mushrooms they serve... — queenofeats Nov 10, 2008

Katrina's Turkey Wontons

Posted by Lisa in Chicago  

These were great! It took us a couple of tries to locate wonton wrappers, and I accidentally bought spring roll wrappers meant for fresh rolls first. Don't get confused, folks! Look for a brand called Nasoya if you can find it, they are the most... — queenofeats Nov 7, 2008

Curry Soup With Meatballs

Posted by CulinaryQueen  

I'm going to come back and review this once I get an opportunity to make it again. My husband had to take over for me about midway through, and though he followed the recipe exactly, the recipe does not specify when to add the broth. As a result,... — queenofeats Nov 7, 2008

Red River Pumpernickel Bread

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Dreamer in Ontario  

This was fun to make and tasted really great too! We needed a side dish for our Halloween feast and I couldn't help trying this recipe out as "Tombstone bread!" On any day, however, this bread is a wonderful quick way to make something good. My... — queenofeats Nov 3, 2008

Zesty Potatoes With Sour Cream & Chives

Posted by gertc96  

This was a great accompaniment to a simple peppercorn pork tenderloin bought from the store. Used the bowl method since I didn't have the right kind of Ziplock - no problems, but I did need about five minutes longer in the microwave. I will... — queenofeats Nov 3, 2008

Ghost Cocktail

Posted by *Alia*  

We really enjoyed this at our little Halloween party for two! The amount of vodka was a little bit strong for us, but we are not frequent drinkers, so the amount is probably fine for most people. We ended up lessening it to just one ounce for all... — queenofeats Nov 3, 2008

Italian Chicken

Posted by Mysterygirl  

Well, this recipe doesn't really need another review, so I'll keep it short. We loved this simple way to add a lot of flavor to our chicken. We used butter instead of margarine (I just don't do margarine, I'm sorry) but I did the rest as directed... — queenofeats Nov 3, 2008

Beef Stew

This was just as easy as everyone says it is! I admit to making a somewhat sizable change though - an oversight in shopping led to my running out of red wine for this recipe! Some quick thinking later and I ended up combining a couple of... — queenofeats Nov 3, 2008

Mushroom Pie

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Ms*Bindy  

From two mushroom fanatics to you - thank you so much! This recipe was fantastic. I confess to using storebought crust the first time, just because I've had mediocre results with other similar recipes and didn't want to go to the trouble of making... — queenofeats Oct 21, 2008

Chicken and Dumplings

This was an awesome recipe. My husband was the chef this time and he said that the recipe was nice and clear and had no trouble with it coming together, which is always a plus! I am normally not fond of chicken thighs, but since he went to the... — queenofeats Oct 15, 2008
