Smooth and Creamy Peanut Butter Balls

Posted by Holly Harwig  

What a fun easy recipe! I used the exact amount of ingredients (used the almond bark instead of white chocolate) but I think I made my balls too big as I know I didn't get 24. I unfortunately couldn't get an accurate count because someone kept... — Sharon the Rocket Sep 30, 2009

Best Sloppy Joes Ever!

Posted by Holly Harwig  

WOW! This one was soooooo easy. And the title is right - absolutely the best sloppy joes ever!! My husband finished it off tonight and he seldom eats the same leftovers the next night. I might add a little chopped onion next time only because... — Sharon the Rocket Sep 28, 2009

Queen Valley Banana Bread

Posted by Holly Harwig  

This should really be a 4 1/2 stars. I loved this bread but my husband seemed to think it needed a bit of "something" (man thing, apparently). I might want to try either a little more vanilla or add a bit of cinnamon or nutmeg - not real sure.... — Sharon the Rocket Sep 28, 2009

Tater Tot Hot Dish

Posted by Holly Harwig  

This was wonderful. Made it for PAC 09 - great recipe to satisfy a hungry man. Followed the recipe but used fresh mix of veggies and it was awesome. This is definitely a keeper - and I agree with littleturtle - I'll try subbing a different kind... — Sharon the Rocket Sep 28, 2009

Apple Cake With Icing

Posted by Barefoot Beachcomber  

Only reason this wasn't a 5 is because of my DH (he's my expert taster) It really should have a 4 1/2 - it is soooo easy to make and really tasty. I did add cinnamon and nutmeg but apparently not enough. Just needed a little more flavor. I... — Sharon the Rocket Feb 1, 2009

Candied Sweet Potatoes

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Dani Jean  

This probably should have a 5 so I will have to make it again and have husband review a 2nd time. I only used 1 cup marshmallows but next time will use the right amount of 2 cups. I had to bake mine a bit longer so it could have been my oven... — Sharon the Rocket Nov 30, 2008

Cinnamon-Honey Sweet Potatoes

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Shirl (J) 831  

WOW! This was an easy 5-plus!! It was soooo easy to make and tasted absolutely delicious. I didn't change anything with one exception. I didn't have any real orange juice so I had to substitute with "Sunny D" drink. But it worked out... — Sharon the Rocket Nov 30, 2008

Bourbon Brown Sugar Sweet Potatoes

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by chef victoria #2  

This was a tough one to rate. I followed the recipe "almost" to the letter. It is difficult when it lists a number of sweet potatoes instead of the number of cups. There are way too many different sizes of sweet potatoes (I used big ones and... — Sharon the Rocket Nov 2, 2008

Awesome Whole Wheat Dinner Rolls

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by ranch-girl  

This was a great recipe - didn't make any changes other than doing the half wheat and half white flour as suggested. I don't think I let them rise long enough because they didn't get very thick when baking. My husband liked the flavor (again,... — Sharon the Rocket Oct 19, 2008

Fruit Dumpling

Posted by Kasia#3  

This was a tough recipe for me to make because I don't think the directions were clear enough as far as how to separate the dough (what size, roll out to what thickness, etc.) I intend to try it again as I figured out some things "after the... — Sharon the Rocket Oct 19, 2008

Banana Fondue

Posted by Kristen Porter  

What a cute and quick recipe - and great tasting. Though I put toothpicks out for everyone to try this recipe, everyone wound up using their fingers to dip the banana pieces (I think so they could get some extra chocolate to lick off their... — Sharon the Rocket Oct 19, 2008

Easy Homestyle Banana Bread

Posted by KaityKay  

Great recipe! I had to cook it in my oven for 70 minutes but it turned out wonderfully moist (I was worried it would be dry but not at all!) I didn't use the banana extract (didn't even know there was such a thing!) but I will probably do so... — Sharon the Rocket Oct 16, 2008

Breakfast Strudel

Posted by Kasia#3  

WOW!! This was fun to make and fun to eat. I DH loves breakfast food for dinner so that's what I gave him and he gave it ten fingers up! I did put salsa on top of one strudel before braiding (folding) puff pastry over top. I also mixed in some... — Sharon the Rocket Oct 13, 2008

Ham and Potato Casserole

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Heather the Flutist  

This was great - my husband ate the ENTIRE casserole for dinner!! He's a big eater but I must admit, he's never done that before! He loved it - just said that he needed to put a little more pepper in it (and now that I think of it, I might... — Sharon the Rocket Oct 12, 2008

WOW! This was awesome! My hubby put everything together and then realized that I forgot to pick up the pineapple juice. So he went and got it but decided to just mix half the recipe as our friends decided not to join us and this recipe really... — Sharon the Rocket Oct 12, 2008

Brown Rice & Goat Cheese Cakes

Posted by ranch-girl  

This was tough for me to make because I wasn't sure on "real" quantity of "scallions". I used regular yellow onions because technically, they are scallions but I'm not sure if I should have used green onions or something else. I'm better knowing... — Sharon the Rocket Oct 9, 2008

Calypso Chicken Casserole

WOW! This was soooo unique and different for me to make. Easy and fun, too. Hubby thought it needed a little more kick or spice - but then thought it would be great in a flour tortilla or over spaghetti squash. Lots of variations can be done... — Sharon the Rocket Oct 9, 2008

This was such an easy recipe - and tasty, too. I took the suggestion of the previous reviewer and added 1/2 red pepper and also 1/2 yellow (we love those here!) The taste was great and this is a recipe we will have often. It will be a great... — Sharon the Rocket May 11, 2008

Spicy Shrimp

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Food Frenzy  

WOW! Definitely a unique recipe for shrimp. Only thing I did different was cut the hot sauce in half (just to be safe the first time). It was actually perfect so I will do that again the next time I make it. I also had a tough time with not... — Sharon the Rocket May 11, 2008
