Pastry-Topped Ginger Beef

Posted by Cecily Parsley  

This is good. DH, who is a meat and potatoes kind of guy, loved it. I think I would have liked it better if I had used rib meat instead of stew meat. Maybe next time, I will cook the meat in the crock pot too. — Scrivener1 Nov 9, 2009

Asian Pork Tenderloin

Posted by erinBOberrin  

I also tripled the marinade ingredients, lined my pan with foil, and I poured the marinade over the pork before I baked it. My family loved this. It is a keeper. UPDATE: I doubled the sauce and marinated the pork for 45 minutes. It was very good. — Scrivener1 Nov 2, 2009

Berry-Banana Smoothie

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Lainey6605  

I made this with pomegranate juice and a Yoplait mixed berry yogurt. I halved the recipe. I agree that this is refreshing. This would be perfect on a hot, summer day. UPDATE: I made this with Acai juice, and I liked it even BETTER! — Scrivener1 Oct 22, 2009

Chicken Stir-Fry with Cashews

Posted by Scandigirl  

This was OK. I used soy sauce instead of fish sauce. I thought the oyster sauce flavor was too strong. — Scrivener1 Oct 16, 2009

Sweet and Spicy Glazed Pork Cubes

Posted by Judedeva  

I made this to use up the habeneros a friend gave me. The flavors in this recipe are good, but next time, I would consider either the jalapeno or half of a habenero. Both DH and I like spicy food. I thought it was too hot. DH admitted that it... — Scrivener1 Oct 8, 2009

Marinara Sauce from Cooking Light

Posted by CIndytc  

I found this in an old Cooking Light magazine. It is very good. I liked the crushed tomatoes better than diced tomatoes. This would probably be good with a little sausage, too. — Scrivener1 Oct 5, 2009

Kicked up Banana Smoothie

Posted by Follow the Cook  

I have made this a bazillion times. It is a great breakfast. I soak my oats in the milk when I get up, and drink it about an hour later. Also, I add a little flax meal to it. This is a permanent fixture in my breakfast menu! — Scrivener1 Sep 22, 2009

The Lady's Chicken Noodle Soup - Paula Deen

Posted by Manami  

The version of this soup in my Paula Deen cookbook does not call for mushrooms or rosemary. So I made it without those two things, and I also did not use the cheese or cream. "The Lady" suggests leaving these out if you want to cut calories.... — Scrivener1 Sep 22, 2009

Avocado Ranch Dressing

I didn't like this as a dressing for salad. It was thick. I would consider adding it to a chicken wrap. — Scrivener1 Aug 25, 2009

I only use about 1/2 loaf of bread, and about 3/4 lb of deli corned beef. This is excellent. We love it! — Scrivener1 Aug 17, 2009

Delicious Asian Chicken Salad With Chow Mein Noodles

This recipe is really all about the dressing. You can add whatever you want to the salad. I thought the dressing was bold just as it is! It is the sesame oil that makes it bold. I marinated the chicken in a comercial General Tso's marinade and... — Scrivener1 Jul 27, 2009

Hamburger Noodle Bake

Posted by MizzNezz  

I had high hopes for this recipe because of all the rave reviews, but I found it to be very bland. Also, the flavors did not blend very well, and the sour cream flavor was over powering. — Scrivener1 Jul 23, 2009
