Kittencal's Spinach & Four-Cheese Manicotti (Vegetarian)

Posted by KITTENCAL  

Wow! This was great. My husband licked the bowl clean that I mixed the filling in while I was making this - that' how delicious it is! And with the sauce and cheese on top - even better. I used reduced fat for all the cheeses, except real... — Paja Nov 23, 2009

Easy Braised Meatballs in Red Wine Gravy

Posted by KITTENCAL  

Wonderful gravy!! I found a similar recipe on Epicurious and used their meatballs. I did NOT like the meatballs, the texture was too mushy for us. I used this recipe for the gravy (the other didn't have onion or garlic) and it was delicious. I... — Paja Nov 10, 2009

Rich Vegetable Stock

Who says you don't get something for nothing?? I am giving this 5 stars for the idea which seems obvious once you know it. But I sure didn't think of it without this recipe. I didn't use the method though, I couldn't see how it would be different... — Paja Nov 3, 2009

Easy Champagne Punch (Alcohol-Free or With Champagne)

Posted by KITTENCAL  

This was great! I was looking for a punch recipe to serve at my son's wedding and I wanted a recipe that was fairly light on the alcohol. (It was served with some appies after the ceremony, the reception was later on at a hotel.) I couldn't find... — Paja Aug 11, 2009

Dip for the Stars

Posted by FLUFFSTER  

Oh WOW! I had so many compliments on this dip! Rich and delicious, certainly not something you would eat every day, but for a special occasion, it is perfect (I served it with veggies and crackers at my son's wedding.) I wanted the tomato and... — Paja Aug 11, 2009

Finally! Lemon Bars That I Love!

Posted by Wildflour  

These were great! I used fresh lemon juice and added some of the zest as well for extra lemon flavour. These were enjoyed by everyone who tried them. — Paja Aug 11, 2009

Pecan Pie Squares

Posted by Wildflour  

This was very easy to make and tasted delicious. I lined the pan with aluminum foil which I greased to make clean up easier. It also made it very easy to take the bars out of the pan without them breaking apart. Great flavour! — Paja Aug 11, 2009

Mango Peach Chutney

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Sharon123  

Very delicious! I made this to serve with cold turkey. Since it was summertime, and I could use fresh peaches it went much better than traditional cranberry. I peeled the peaches by putting them in boiling water for about a minute, the skins came... — Paja Aug 11, 2009

Bok Choy-Broccoli Stir-Fry

Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

This was a lovely side dish. It's amazing how much flavour the small amount of lemon juice gives the vegies. This was a nice change from the usual stir fry I do with soy sauce. I will make this often! — Paja Jan 20, 2009

Halibut Steaks

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Derf  

My DH said this was the best halibut ever! (And he loves my "regular" recipe). As another reviewer suggested, I put the onions and lemon underneath the halibut and then squeezed a small amount of fresh lemon juice on top for the marinating time. I... — Paja Jan 19, 2009

Broccoli With Artichoke Hearts

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by ~Rita~  

Delicious and simple! Served it for Christmas dinner and it went over well. I actually added a little lemon zest because I think garlic and lemon go so well with broccoli and with artichokes. — Paja Dec 26, 2008

Delicious Blue Cheese Broccoli Casserole

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by KITTENCAL  

The name says it all! We love love love blue cheese and in this dish, even with the full amount it is a subtle, delicious compliment to the broccoli. I realized at the last minute that I didn't have cream cheese so I used light sour cream (less... — Paja Dec 20, 2008

Corn Stuffed Tomatoes

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Bergy  

These are gorgeous! I followed Kittencal's lead and put some Parmesan cheese in the roux. I used turkey bacon (which I am not crazy about normally) and low fat milk so they were really very healthy. They make such a lovely presentation. My... — Paja Dec 20, 2008

Way Easy Peach Cobbler

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by nanunanu  

The name says it all! 5 minutes prep? More like about 2!! And really delicious. I just realized that I only used one can of peaches (didn't read carefully enough) but it was still great. Lots of topping which was nice and crispy. I added cinnamon... — Paja Dec 16, 2008

Honey Ginger Glazed Chicken

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Sue L  

Really lovely! I used thighs they worked well with this flavourful sauce. Reading the reviews, I cut the fish sauce to 1 Tbsp. because I don't like my food salty. It was just right for me. (DH on the other hand would probably like it with double... — Paja Dec 16, 2008

Zucchini or Squash Casserole

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

This was very nice and a little out of the ordinary. I sauted the onion with some mushrooms before putting it all together. I like my veggies on the crispy side and thought the onions and mushrooms might not be cooked enough. I actually cooked it... — Paja Dec 16, 2008

Yummy Chicken

Lovely! This is one of of those recipes that is way more than a sum of its parts. Way better than you would expect from reading the recipe! So simple, but really great flavour. I found I needed more of the flour mixture to coat the chicken than... — Paja Dec 10, 2008

Grilled Flank Steak With Garlic-Parsley Sauce

Posted by MsPia  

I loved this! I used this sauce on some strip loin steaks. I chose it over other "chimichura" sauces because it had less fat and less garlic. Unfortunately I only had yellow onions, I think it would be better with red, but it was still great! I... — Paja Dec 10, 2008

Easy Cream Cheese Apple Dessert (Almost Cheesecake!)

Posted by KITTENCAL  

This was great! Kittencal had suggested it to me in a thread about super easy desserts and I chose to make it for her cookathon. It was extremely easy and very tasty. Not overly sweet, which I liked and the filling was s-o-o-o creamy! The walnuts... — Paja Dec 7, 2008

Chili

Posted by KITTENCAL  

My oh my! This was deIiciious! I chose this recipe for the cookathon for Kittencal because it hadn't been rated yet and because it looked good. I made very few changes-a red pepper instead of green because I didn't have green on hand and only one... — Paja Dec 7, 2008
