Hawaiian Baked Beans!

Posted by Koechin (Chef)  

I have always made a Hawwian Baked Beans recipe that wasn't nearly easy as this "open a can" one. 3-bean salad? But I thought I'd give it a try and me, my husband and 2 cousins all gave it 5 stars! I used a smoky-type BBQ sauce and at first... — Mareesme Oct 24, 2009

To Die for Crock Pot Roast

Posted by yooper  

I'm joining the long list of cooks who rave about this recipe! What a great recipe to use over and over again. I threw a rump roast in the crockpot after rubbing it in the combined seasonings, sprinkled the rest around the pot, added 1 C water... — Mareesme Oct 19, 2009

Hamburger Soup

Posted by MizzNezz  

II feel bad I can't rate this a 5, but had a problem with the soup. Even though I didn't use the boullion I had to doctor it up because we thought it was too salty. I added 2 diced potatoes to absorb some of the salt and some more canned... — Mareesme Oct 14, 2009

Keftedakia (Greek Meatballs)

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by evelyn/athens  

I experimented making these to see if I should serve them at my party next week. Even though I sampled some of the ouzo while they were cooking, I do recall they were wonderful-- and a "must" for the party! (Later note: I have used suggestions... — Mareesme Aug 10, 2009

I have a few packages of Greek macaroni (hollow pasta the length of spaghetti noodles) and the pastitsio recipe on the back was in Greek, to my dismay! After trying so many recipes, I am so happy I ran across your's. It's just like I used to have... — Mareesme Aug 10, 2009

Bourekakia (Baklava 'cigars')

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by evelyn/athens  

I truly loved these, since they weren't sticky sweet as most other baklavas I've made, Since they are time-consuming, when I want to serve them, I make them ahead of time and freeze. The only change I made was to change syrup somewhat by using 1T... — Mareesme Aug 10, 2009

Mom's Cheese Ball

Posted by Jeff Hixson  

I was so glad to find this recipe while choosing a recipe for Chef Jeff's Cookathon! I made it alot in the 1980's, but then lost the recipe. I use garlic powder to taste instead of garlic salt. Since it is a large cheese ball, I brought it to... — Mareesme Aug 10, 2009

Orange Pineapple Vinaigrette

Posted by **Pebbles**  

I doubled this recipe and let people pour on what they wanted, since I was unsure if I'd have enough for a larger salad as written. Since I didn't have pine-orange juice, I drained some of the pineapple juice out of a can and added orange juice.... — Mareesme Apr 22, 2008

Shellbell's Easy Pumpkin Bread

Posted by Mommy Diva  

The first time I made this bread (in 3 disposable loaf pans) I found that it rose beautifully and was tasty. I don't know why, but even though I used pumpkin puree, I didn't think it had a real "pumpkin-y" taste. I made it again, using 1/2 C ea.... — Mareesme Apr 3, 2008

Chicken Piccata

Posted by Sydney Mike  

We really enjoyed this very tender and flavorful chicken. I did add a dash of garlic salt and cracked black pepper to the chicken stock, but I'm sure it still would have been good without changes. It was wonderful served with asparagus and rice... — Mareesme Feb 27, 2008

Triple Orange Margarita

Posted by AmandaInOz  

A potent and somewhat sweet margarita that I loved. The fruity taste the liqueur and fruit juices mixed with the tart lime flavoring makes it a zesty drink when II'm not in the mood for standard margaritas or martinis. Thanks for the recipe! — Mareesme Feb 25, 2008

4th of July Trifle

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by CJ Berry  

This is a beautiful and delicious trifle. I wish I could give it 5 stars, but when I make it again I will reduce almond flavoring to 1T and sugar to 1/3C in the fruit mixture and reduce confectioners' sugar to 1 1/2 C. I will definitely make it... — Mareesme Feb 10, 2008
