Baked Pork Chops

Posted by Mom of Five  

This was really good! The only reason I give it 4 (instead of 5) stars is it is very bad for you (butter! Ritz!) But it is quite yummy. Some of the breading came off when I flipped the chops, but I just picked it all out of the melted butter... — firealarmqueen Oct 12, 2009

Cuban Black Beans

Posted by Engrossed  

I don't know what went wrong. I followed the directions meticulously, and after I added my dry seasonings, I covered the pot and left it to boil (actually had it on Med). Imagine my surprise when billows of smoke began pouring out of my pot.... — firealarmqueen Sep 17, 2009

Homemade Microwave Popcorn

Posted by princesslisa of a galaxy far far away  

Thanks for posting this! My girls (1.5 and 3.5) love popcorn and have it for an afternoon snack nearly every day! You can imagine we were going thru quite a bit of microwave popcorn (which I didn't even really care for!) This turned out great;... — firealarmqueen Sep 17, 2009

Chicken Tortilla Soup II

Posted by Eddie Shipman  

YUMMO! I skipped the carrots--->onions, but did a dash of minced onions instead. I REALLY wanted to skip the tortillas b/c that part sounded gross to me, but I did it and was glad. The final taste was fabulous. Next time I will not incorporate... — firealarmqueen Sep 9, 2009

Sweet and Spicy Sweet Potato Bake

Posted by KITTENCAL  

I must've done something wrong. I had 1 lb of small sweet potatoes...but in the end we had wayyyyyy to much "sauce". Also, the mix of sweet and "spicy" just didn't work for us. We omitted the cayenne b/c of having 2 very young ones....so maybe... — firealarmqueen Aug 31, 2009

Barbecued Lima Baked Beans

Posted by ~Rita~  

Oh dear. This just didn't fly in our house. Don't know what went wrong but ours ended up in the trash (waste of good bacon . ) Also, we weren't quite sure what to do w/ the frozen limas--put in frozen? thaw first? Don't think it says... I... — firealarmqueen Aug 31, 2009

This DID NOT disappoint! Perfectly easy to prepare, played nicely with generic pork'n'beans. Great flavor, nicely colored on top. I'll definitely hold onto to this recipe! THANKS! — firealarmqueen Aug 31, 2009

Budget Stretcher Beef and Potato Casserole

Posted by nnreq  

I really enjoyed this. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 b/c I couldn't convince my 3 year old to eat more than 1 bite and DH said it was "ok". My 1 year old and I ate our full serving (and I kept sneaking bites while cleaning up.) I'm amazed at... — firealarmqueen Aug 10, 2009

Meatloaf

Posted by Rosemary Chapman  

This is really good and makes a large amount. We ate this and ate this for several days (2 adults and 2 very small children.) We had it w/ mashed potatoes and we had it on toasted kaisers. I'll make it again, but w/ the following changes:... — firealarmqueen Jul 7, 2009

Crock Pot Ham and Beans

Posted by Sue L  

My beans ended up more soupy than creamy, but the flavor was great. I used a country ham chunk, so I probably should've left out the salt (they were a bit salty). Also, I may cut back the garlic and onions a tad next time, but otherwise we... — firealarmqueen Feb 12, 2009

Kittencal's Italian Melt-In-Your-Mouth Meatballs

Posted by KITTENCAL  

These were so easy. I only had a pound of beef, so I just guestimated on the rest of the ingredients. Baked for 25 min. before popping them in the simmering sauce. Great, way better than smelly frozen meatballs. Can't wait to make these again... — firealarmqueen Jan 7, 2009

Puppy Chow or Monkey Munch

Posted by strawberryjane  

Saw this one Jon&Kate+8. Very easy to make, a nice sweet treat. We used wheat chex cause we had a lot of it. I would recommend going with corn or rice chex...wheat chex is rather hard and crunchy. Not messay to make at all--melted my sweets... — firealarmqueen Jan 7, 2009

Fabulous Beef Stew

Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

Super easy, just throw it in the crock pot and off you go. DH doesn't really like stews, so he wasn't impressed. I, however, enjoyed it. Meat was very tender and the flavor was yummy. Missing something, I don't know what, but overall, I'll... — firealarmqueen Dec 7, 2008

Peanut Butter Pie

Posted by PA Cindy  

The flavor of this was wonderful! I, however, was looking for something a little denser, creamier. This pie really needs to be served frozen because if you let it thaw it tastes too Cool Whip-y and fluffy (make sense?) I chopped Reese's and... — firealarmqueen Dec 1, 2008

White Chocolate Chip Cranberry Oatmeal Cookies

OH. MY. Sweet heavenly goodness! These were fantastic! I LOVED IT! I added walnuts, because, well, why not? I also might decrease the amount of white choc chips b/c they were plenty sweet and packed full of goodies. These--for me--didn't... — firealarmqueen Nov 26, 2008

Creamy Cajun Chicken Pasta

Posted by Lorac  

Made this when DH was outta town (he doesn't like white sauces and pasta--I LOVE THEM). The smell alone of the cajun-coated chicken saute-ing in butter is enough for me to make this again. I went with 2 c. cream b/c I wanted plenty of sauce.... — firealarmqueen Nov 20, 2008

Pizza Dough for Thin Crust Pizza

Posted by UnknownChef86  

I liked this. Here's the changes I had to make: this made one large pizza (I have a large round metal pizza pan and it fit it perfectly). Next time I'll do the pre-bake because, while it tasted "done", it was VERY soft under the toppings. I... — firealarmqueen Nov 19, 2008

Mexican Stuffed Shells (Oamc)

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by * Pamela *  

These lend themselves well to improvisation. I had no tomato sauce so I just used salsa. I put a cube of pepper jack and cheddar on each shell and covered the whole thing with shredded mozzarella that I had in the fridge. I think cheese in the... — firealarmqueen Nov 19, 2008

Chocolate Walnut Butter Bread

I had a little trouble making this recipe, as I'm somewhat new to bread making. Wasn't sure how to mix it (with a spoon, beaters)? I don't have pastry attachment on a mixer or anything like that. I ended up using my bare hands (what a sticky,... — firealarmqueen Nov 12, 2008
