Lemon Cream Cheese Cookies

Posted by podapo  

I am torn when it comes to how to rate these cookies. They were good, but not great. My kids (ages 5 and 1) LOVED them. I liked them. I baked them on a foil-lined (and sprayed) cookie sheet at 350 for 10 minutes. I added 1/2 tsp lemon juice to the... — Melanie2590 Oct 12, 2009

Mexican Chicken Corn Chowder

Posted by miss gracie  

This was good but I ended up making a few changes. After I made it according to the directions (with the exception on the tomato- I left that out to please DH and DS. I also added only about 1 1/2 cups of cheese- simply my preference), I decided... — Melanie2590 Oct 10, 2009

Frizzled Cabbage

Posted by Boxerwing  

how can something so simple be so good? it's one of those "DUH" recipes- when you wonder why you've never thought to try that until now. i've cooked cabbage before, but just until it was done. i had never even thought to keep cooking it to let it... — Melanie2590 Aug 12, 2009

Texas Red Enchilada Sauce

Posted by Mark H.  

My sister and I discovered this sauce on Christmas Day of 2006. I now use this at least once a week for my family. I usually double or triple the recipe and freeze my leftovers. Once thawed, it tastes as good as fresh! (although it does need a bit... — Melanie2590 Aug 11, 2009

Jamie Deen's Eggnog Custard Pie

Posted by Lvs2Cook  

this was pretty good. i'm not sure what i expected, but it didn't just blow my socks off. THAT BEING SAID, it is still really yummy and easy. i used 3/4 c water and instead of the 1/4 c rum i used 2 1/2 t rum flavoring. i could taste the "rum"... — Melanie2590 Jul 30, 2009

Peanut Butter Pumpkins

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Sue L  

these were good but hard to make!i couldn't get all of the sugar to mix in- and my arm hurts from all the stirring! i even employed my kitchenaid mixer, but even it had a hard time. i doubled the recipe, and only got about 24 oz of sugar into it,... — Melanie2590 Jul 23, 2009

Easy As Pie No Roll Pie Crust

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Marie  

i have made this crust twice now. the first time, i substituted butter for the oil. it was delicious, but it stuck to the pan pretty badly. the second time, i used half butter and half oil. it had a nice buttery flavor and didn't stick. i love... — Melanie2590 Jun 5, 2009

Chocolate-Covered Cherry Pie

Posted by KITTENCAL  

i rated this the other day but for some reason it's not here! this pie was good. i thought it was kind of a pain to make, but not hard at all (just time consuming). the end result was a beautiful, tasty pie. i don't know that i'll make it again,... — Melanie2590 May 17, 2009

Charlie's Famous Chicken Salad with Grapes

Posted by Sherri35  

a good, basic chicken salad recipe. i used mayo instead of miracle whip (can't stand the stuff!) and green onions. had cashews on it because they're my favorite! i was a little concerned about the worcestershire sauce so only used 1/2 tsp- that... — Melanie2590 May 17, 2009

White Chocolate No-Bake Cheesecake Pie

Posted by MizzNezz  

this was pretty good but not quite as amazing as i had expected. i'm hoping the flavors will blend together a little more after it sits overnight in the fridge. it was definitely easy to make and that's always a plus! — Melanie2590 May 3, 2009

Kittencal's Overnight Layered Caramel French Toast

Posted by KITTENCAL  

this was pretty good. all i had on hand was splenda brown sugar mix, so i think that's the reason my caramel didn't turn out syrupy the way i expected it. the flavor was good and cooked into the bread, but not exactly what i had hoped. next time i... — Melanie2590 Apr 29, 2009

Green Sauce Chicken (Crock Pot) OAMC

Posted by Huskergirl  

i am re-reviewing this because i made a few alterations and have enjoyed it MUCH more since then. i've been baking this in the oven instead of putting it in the crock pot... one step that i think is an absolute must is thawing and draining the... — Melanie2590 Apr 23, 2009
