French Macaroni Salad

Posted by Jan in Lanark  

I only gave 4 stars, not because there was something wrong, but because I reserve a 5 star review for those recipes that are a real knock-out. This salad was a great change from the mayo-type or Italian-type. It had a lovely freshness and really... — mom24boys Sep 7, 2009

Garlic Pasta

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by FamilyChef3  

This is a wonderful start for Garlic Pasta. You are right that one needs to adjust for their own preference in flavors. I add more Parmesan (I use about 3/4 cup) and 2 tablespoons butter. The second time I made this, I melted the butter with... — mom24boys Jan 11, 2009

Frugal Gourmet Chicken

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by KCShell  

You can also use this method with a whole chicken which is how Jeff Smith demonstrated it on his show. When I want to cook a whole chicken for shredded meat, this is the only way I do it now. Just skip the grilling and bbq sauce. You can even... — mom24boys Jan 11, 2009

Stroganoff

Posted by Chibi  

I doubled this and omitted the onion, garlic and salt and substituted a package of onion soup mix for that stuff. It came out great. — mom24boys Oct 28, 2008

Crock Pot Chicken W/ Black Beans and Cream Cheese...yum!

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Jen Santiago  

We made this last night. I did have to change a few things because of what we had on hand. I used 5 leg quarters, extra garlic, fresh salsa and frozen corn. I also didn't add the corn until about 1 hour before serving because we just hate the way... — mom24boys Jan 31, 2008

Steak San Marlo (Crock Pot Stew)

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by rileyk2  

I made this with 2 inch thick, grass fed beefallo. The meat from this particular steer has been tough. However, the Steak San Marlo recipe cooked it up nice and tender. The only changes I would make are to add at least 2 cans of mushrooms and a... — mom24boys Jan 29, 2008

Shortbread

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by MizzNezz  

I made these as individual cookies. They were delightfully crisp and tasty. I brought them piled on a cake pedestal to a Sushi & Steak supper with friends. Even though key lime pie was also available, the cookies were the big hit. I used the... — mom24boys Jan 20, 2008

Rice Chile Verde

(4 people found this helpful) Posted by Engrossed  

This a wonderful side dish that my family has made often. However, I lost the recipe and my "guess work" never yielded what I was looking for. Thanks Engrossed for posting! We doubled the chilies and almost doubled the jack cheese. Plus, we... — mom24boys Dec 29, 2006

Sushi Rice

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Roosie  

This is what I was looking for! While the other reviewer found it a little to sweet, to my family, it was just perfect. It tasted just like the rice in the sushi from our favorite sushi shop. — mom24boys Sep 4, 2006

No Bake Cookies

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Sara C  

These are just a bit too sweet for my family. We prefer lightly sweetened but creamy, full of fat desserts. Just a tip: if you only have Old Fashioned Oats, just wiz it in a blender or food processor for a bit to chop up the oats. I was told by... — mom24boys Jul 8, 2006

Bacon Wrapped Jalapeno Poppers

(12 people found this helpful) Posted by AZRoxy63  

These have been a family favorite for years!! If you use a grapefruit spoon, it is easy to remove the membranes and seeds. We have also 1/2 cooked the bacon first so that it gets a bit more crispy without overcooking the peppers. — mom24boys May 22, 2006

Flybanes ( Muchomorki)

Posted by Lorac  

These look great. I love having a show stopper at potluck dinners and picnics. Now I can turn the comfort-food potato salad that everyone loves (but looks about as exciting as pbj sandwiches)into the talk of the table! — mom24boys May 22, 2006
