Hash Brown Breakfast Casserole

Posted by Sheri in Georgia  

I made this back in May when some awesome friends were visiting, and I'd forgotten to review. I liked the hashbrowns instead of using bread as a change of pace. — newspapergal Nov 19, 2009

Sugar Free Banana Bread

Posted by AngAustinBrody  

I made a few changes for my 9-month-old — I used an egg white; I left out raisins & nuts; I added about 1/4 cup shredded carrot; I used 1/3 cup applesauce and just 1/8 cup vegetable oil. I also just mashed the banana with a fork instead of... — newspapergal Sep 18, 2009

Easy and Tasty Barbecue Chicken Sandwiches in the Crock Pot

Posted by Kree  

Surprisingly delicious! I am back to work after having a baby, so Quick & Easy recipes are at the top of my list right now. I thought this recipe would make a serviceable, but not exciting, dinner. Wrong. I used chicken that was still mostly... — newspapergal Jun 16, 2009

Kathleen's Peanut Butter Frosting (Barefoot Contessa) Ina Garten

Posted by Cookie16  

This is very creamy & light - great consistency. It's not too sweet either, which is what I find with a lot of frostings. I wish it had a bit more PB flavor. I used it to frost chocolate cupcakes, then I covered them with Reese's Pieces. — newspapergal Apr 28, 2009

Veggie Lovers Baked Ziti

Posted by CTRmom  

As a new mom who's just gone back to work, I'm looking for quick-to-prepare filling recipes that reheat well for lunches. This one fit the bill perfectly. I used zucchini, baby portabellos and frozen spinach. I didn't bother thawing the spinach,... — newspapergal Mar 24, 2009

Fried Egg Sandwiches

Posted by ratherbeswimmin'  

Yummmm. My dad has made these my whole life, minus the honey mustard. We also like the egg yolks pretty firm. I personally like to use a grainy bread spread with just a bit of butter. My dad uses Miracle Whip on his. I made one for lunch today,... — newspapergal Jul 21, 2008

Marshall Field's Chicken Salad (With Sandwich Variations)

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Sharlene~W  

Yum. I made these for a bridal shower, easily increased the recipe, and served on mini-crossiants. The seasoning is perfect. I baked my chicken with a little S&P the night before mixing up the salad. I really like the flavor the toasted pecans... — newspapergal May 10, 2008

Cucumber Open Faced Sandwiches

Posted by JoAnn  

I made these for a bridal shower, easily tripling the recipe & using both rye cocktail bread and sourdough cocktail bread. I mixed up the cream cheese mixture the night before, and then we assembled the sandwiches about an hour before the house. I... — newspapergal May 10, 2008

Raspberry Cream Bars

Posted by mandabears  

Very tasty. These are buttery & delicious, and in no way taste "boxed." You could sub any fruit-preserve flavor you wanted — the raspberry flavor wasn't strong — and they would be great, too. I served these as a quick dessert during a monthly... — newspapergal Apr 2, 2008

Amaretto Margaritas

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Vino Girl  

Wonderful!! I tried an "Italian Margarita" at a bar last year, and thought of that when I spotted this recipe. I followed it exactly, and made a small pitcher that served four of us sizable drinks during our monthly Ladies Card Night. The fresh... — newspapergal Apr 2, 2008

Texas Beef Skillet

Posted by Karen From Colorado  

This was not as good as I thought it would be. I used ground turkey, but otherwise followed the directions exactly. I felt it needed more rice to be a real one-dish meal; instead, DH & I wrapped the mixture in tortillas & topped with cheese &... — newspapergal Mar 10, 2008

Four-Cheese Baked Macaroni

Posted by Alan in SW Florida  

The flavor of this is wonderful, though I think I need to adjust the baking time. I used a high-quality sharp white cheddar, and subbed swiss for the jarlsberg. I topped it with 1/4 cup of breadcrumbs instead of the tomatoes. When I combined the... — newspapergal Mar 10, 2008

Hot Cocoa (many ways and many tastes)

Green Tortilla Chili

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Mommy Diva  

This is WONDERFUL! I used Pace's new Salsa Verde and Miller Lite as the beer, and followed the recipe exactly, though I did reduce the lime juice to just one lime. I was really surprised just how much flavor this has for such simple ingredients!... — newspapergal Mar 10, 2008

Pineapple Punch

Posted by Color Guard Mom  

Great, easy recipe. A friend made this for a wine & cheese party we hosted a few years ago for a nonalcoholic option. You wouldn't think 2 ingredients would make such a tasty, refreshing punch! — newspapergal Feb 19, 2008

Black and White Mexican Bean Soup

Posted by Chef #367901  

I only found this 'OK.' I think it calls for too much flour — it seemed overly thick. I followed the recipe as-is, except I halved the amount of corn — as written, it would be "Corn soup with beans." — newspapergal Feb 17, 2008

Creamy Tomato Sauce for Pasta

Pasta With Chicken, Broccoli, and Sun-Dried Tomatoes

Posted by nsomniak6  

This is very, very flavorful. I enjoyed this at a friend's house, and he followed the recipe exactly. The white wine/chicken broth really add a lot of flavor to the vegetables. It does, however, make at least 6 and likely 8 full servings. — newspapergal Feb 4, 2008

Balsamic Tortellini

Posted by Charmie777  

Sooooo quick & tasty!! I cut back on the amount of onion & bacon just a bit, probably added 2 more Tbsp of parmesan. This has a lot of flavor to have so few ingredients. A great change from my usual crazy-weeknight meal of doctoring some jarred... — newspapergal Jan 24, 2008
