I was out of eggs but needed a cake! This recipe is outstanding!! I used yellow cake mix, and Diet Sunkist sparkling lemonade, SO GOOD! I also put in a couple cups of chocolate chips, so when the cake was done it tasted like chocolate chip... — Melvin'sWifey Nov 19, 2009

Stove Top Tamale Pie

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Fluffy  

I changed it a bit based on other reviews and it turned out perfect. Not dry at all. I used 1 can of rotel instead of the tomato sauce. I also put some shredded cheese on top of the meat mixture, under the cornbread mix, as well as the cheese... — Melvin'sWifey Nov 12, 2009

Delicious Drumsticks

Posted by Abby C  

I have no idea why these did not work for me. I followed the recipe exactly but the coating was not crispy at all (like fried is) and it just tasted way too floury. My chicken was also really light, even after an hour of cooking, I was hoping it... — Melvin'sWifey Nov 10, 2009

Garlic Potatoes

Posted by Miss Erin  

So good! I used regular russet potatoes. I also used shredded colby jack cheese instead of the parm. I used 8 garlic cloves and 1/3 cup butter for 3 potatoes. I cooked them for 25 minutes and they were just so delicious. The cheese got all... — Melvin'sWifey Nov 8, 2009

Perfect Rump Roast

Posted by Gone Fishin'  

I wanted to add my comments but not a rating. I had a 2.5lb rump roast but did not want it rare inside, we don't like to see pink! I cooked it just until the timer popped up that it came with. When I added the water, I also added half a packet... — Melvin'sWifey Nov 8, 2009

Crock Pot Chili Pork Chops.....a Must Try!

Posted by Jen Santiago  

These were okay. The pork did come out really tender and delicious but I wasn't crazy about the flavor of the sauce. Not sure if it was the ketchup or what but it just didn't do it for me. — Melvin'sWifey Nov 7, 2009

This rice is soooo good! I used 1 cup rice and 1 3/4 cup water. I used 2 garlic cloves and toasted them in the beginning with the rice and then added 2 additional garlic cloves at the end as directed. I also used 2 TBL butter and it was just... — Melvin'sWifey Nov 7, 2009

Pumpkin Layer Cheesecake

Posted by Rick Young  

Doesn't get any easier or any better than this! I have made regular pumpkin cheesecakes before but the layer in this makes it so much prettier!! I accidentally bought canned pumpkin pie mix, instead of just regular pumpkin so only added a little... — Melvin'sWifey Nov 1, 2009

Classic Baked Spaghetti

Posted by AngelaTN  

Love this simple, easy and straight forward recipe. I had everything on hand as well which is always nice. I also added a can of sliced mushrooms but other than that, stayed true to the recipe. I did not cover it at all while baking it, and it... — Melvin'sWifey Oct 31, 2009

Kerry Simon's Addictive Soft Steak Tacos (Fajitas)

Posted by MarraMamba  

I think this recipe should have LIME somewhere in the title!! Good thing we like lime because it really stands out here. It really was an easy dish to put together, I used a round steak but let it simmer a lot longer in the pan to make sure it... — Melvin'sWifey Oct 31, 2009

Ww Skinny Chimichangas

Posted by TeresaS  

Yummy! These were really easy to put together. Instead of a whole onion I used a whole red bell pepper and 1/4th onion. I also added 1/2 finely diced jalapeno. The taste was good, we really liked the combo of spices, but I think there was just... — Melvin'sWifey Oct 31, 2009

Easy Cookie Frosting

Posted by CarpenterGirl  

Not sure what went wrong. The frosting was really runny. Sweet, and tasted fine, but just not a good consistency. — Melvin'sWifey Oct 7, 2009

These were good, exactly what I expected really. Not too sweet. I added some lemon zest and juice for a little flavor and frosted them. They are really soft! — Melvin'sWifey Oct 7, 2009

Cornbread

Posted by crazycookinmama  

Can't complain!! Love the sweetness and the moistness. I also added 1/4 cup extra milk. It did however take 32 minutes to bake, which was fine, in my 8 inch square pan. I love that it didn't stick to the pan at all (greased) and cut real... — Melvin'sWifey Sep 29, 2009

Caramel Apple Pie With Crunchy Crumb Topping

Posted by Marg (CaymanDesigns)  

I ended up with 2 pies! I had 3 huge apples to work with and I sliced them (no peeling) and I ended up with enough apples for 2 pies. I did use 28 Kraft caramel squares but only about half the can of evaporated milk. I didn't want it to be too... — Melvin'sWifey Sep 27, 2009

This was really easy!! It tasted great too. On top of the chicken, I put a bunch of fresh parsley and dill and then removed it when I removed the chicken to shred it up. I then chopped some more fresh parsley and dill and added that to the... — Melvin'sWifey Sep 15, 2009
