To Die for Brownies

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Cheryl E  

We all have our ideal of what the perfect brownie should be. Well this recipe is it for me. I loved the moist texture with rich chocolate flavor. I don't need to search any more for the perfect brownie recipe. This one is it. — bella214 Apr 6, 2004

Shrimp Tacos

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

My husband made these tacos for supper last night. We both thought they were delish and something different for a change. The shrimp took on a very zesty, spicy flavor. We should have gotten bigger taco shells because they didn't hold everything I... — bella214 Apr 6, 2004

Zucchini with Walnuts

Posted by Barb Gertz  

This was so delicious and awfully easy to throw together. I used fresh thyme which added wonderful flavor and aroma. The walnuts were a real bonus. Thanks Barb. — bella214 Feb 28, 2004

Pork Chops Casserole

(4 people found this helpful) Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

Great family dinner casserole. I was looking for some comfort-type food and this was exactly what I had in mind. I used boneless pork loin chops which came out very tender. The rice had a good flavor and the gravy added a rich, creamy taste. A... — bella214 Feb 27, 2004

Frosted Pretzels

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

I made these for a Christmas party and they were a total hit. I added food coloring to the frosting (red and green) to make them more Christmas-y. Looked nice and tasted even better. Very quick and easy too. Thanks Nurse Di. — bella214 Dec 16, 2003

Maryland Crab Soup

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Dancer^  

I made this soup last night for dinner. What a treat. Very delicious and different from other crab soups I have tried. No rich and cream based, but savory and tomato based in flavor. My husband and I both loved the Old Bay seasoning and used all 1... — bella214 Dec 16, 2003

Spicy Baked Shrimp

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

This shrimp is the BEST!! Spicy, buttery, and a kickin' lemon-garlic flavor. You have to serve this with hot French bread to sop up the sauce with. Cold beer is a must, too. We ate until we almost burst. Hats off to you, Nurse Di. — bella214 Sep 17, 2003

Big Chewy Oatmeal-Raisin Cookies

Posted by RecipeNut  

Mmmm, these cookies were very good. Oatmeal-raisin are my favorite and I like them chewy, not hard or crisp. These turned out as promised. My husband and I ate them warm with a big glass of ice cold milk. Thanks Recipe Nut. — bella214 Sep 17, 2003

Long Island Raspberry Iced Tea

Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

We had a small dinner party and I made these drinks for everyone. They had a delicious raspberry flavor. Smooth and verrrrry dangerous. I could only drink one but I think I am a light-weight when it comes to liquor. As good as it gets. Thanks... — bella214 Sep 17, 2003

Frozen Strawberry Delight

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

I made this last night to serve at our 4th of July cookout today. It has been safely tucked away in the freezer. I sliced a little piece so I could try it before everyone gets here. Soooo delicious. Rich, creamy, and fruity. Just what I was hoping... — bella214 Jul 4, 2003

Curried Lamb Loaf

(4 people found this helpful) Posted by cmacooks  

This was very good and "the" something different I was looking for. The flavor of the curry and cayenne went well with the lamb. The meatloaf was moist and retained its shape when I sliced. The sauce was good too--a little sweet and tangy. I made... — bella214 Jul 4, 2003

Island Honey Burgers

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

We made these burgers last weekend thinking that they would be good to serve on the 4th of July. We gave them a trial run and my husband and I thought they were delicious. The only change I made was to use 1 teaspoon of fresh grated ginger. We... — bella214 Jul 4, 2003

I thought this salad was so refreshing. The dressiing had a nice sweet tart flavor. The combination of fruits and vegetables was unusual but worked well together. Looked beautiful too. Thanks Dancer^. — bella214 Jun 1, 2003

Black Forest Martini

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

WOWZER!! This is one potent drink. I shook it probably longer than most because I needed to water it down some with the ice. I had mine over ice, too. Very good but not for the timid drinker. A good chocolate-raspberry flavor. — bella214 Jun 1, 2003

Mushroom Meatball Soup

Very easy and yummy soup. I threw in 1/2 t. dried thyme for another layer of flavor. Rich and creamy. Took no time to get ready. A great week-night quick home-cooked meal. Thanks. — bella214 Apr 14, 2003

Curried Chickpeas & Potatoes

(3 people found this helpful) Posted by Dancer^  

Great recipe, Dancer^. My husband and I both thought it was very tasty. I increased jalapeno to 1 t. and that was perfect for our tastes. Potatoes and chickpeas go well together and we are carb lovers so the comfort level was high. The curry,... — bella214 Apr 14, 2003

Vegetarian Shepherd's-Style Pie
