Butternut Squash Gratin

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by BonnieAnn  

This will be a new Thanksgiving tradition in our house! It tastes like pumpkin pie in a bowl! This was the first leftover to be eaten up! I love the texture and flavor. The only thing I did different was leave out half the sugar (we're... — Amy - Ellie's Mommie Nov 17, 2007

Beautiful Burger Buns

(3 people found this helpful) Posted by Hey Jude  

This recipe is also known as Moomie's Beautiful Burger Buns - I have no idea why, but that's how it was passed onto me. It's a great recipe, and dead easy to do. The buns are very soft and light. I've also made this dough into a loaf, with... — Amy - Ellie's Mommie Jul 19, 2005

Instant Pudding Biscuits (Cookies)

Posted by Evie*  

These were okay, a bit dry. They were nice, because I used sugar free pudding (which may be why they were dry, so I don't fault the author at all) and they are nice sweet that is allowed on my diet. — Amy - Ellie's Mommie Jul 19, 2005

Bisquick Pudding Cookies

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by mandabears  

I made this with sugar-free pudding and homemade baking mix, and they were very good. A nice morsel to satisfy a brownie craving in a diabetes safe way. I would suggest using butter instead of the oil, for flavor, if you have it. The cookie... — Amy - Ellie's Mommie Mar 15, 2005

Mrs. Allingham's Light Fruitcake

Posted by Lennie  

I've not made this either, but for those that are considering it, I belive "fruit sugar" would be Fructose. Although a cup would be very, very sweet. Fructose is sold near the sugar substitutes, usually on the top shelf above the sugar, in the... — Amy - Ellie's Mommie Jul 25, 2004

Carolina Pork BBQ

(4 people found this helpful) Posted by stimied  

This is my second review on this dish. I've made it 4 times since the first time I made it in February (it's now June). It gets better and better each time. I've found that if I use a pork picnic shoulder (whole, not portion), it turns out... — Amy - Ellie's Mommie Jun 17, 2004

Laundry Detergent Powder

Posted by Jellyqueen  

I haven't used this yet, but I wanted to add my comments anyway! I just made this with one 5 1/2 ounce bar of Fels Naptha and one bar of glycerin soap (as an added fabric softener and for the strawberry scent!), and two cups each of washing... — Amy - Ellie's Mommie Jun 15, 2004

Country-Style Ribs

(3 people found this helpful) Posted by Denise in NH  

This method of preparation was wonderful. The ribs were very moist and tender, and the sauce was just perfect. I, too, did not have the brand name sauce indicated in the recipe, so I made recipe# 57176 (Drew's Special Rib Sauce by BeachGirl).... — Amy - Ellie's Mommie Jun 12, 2004

This dish was beyond excellent! My mother, myself and my two-year old all loved it! We had it as a side dish tonight, and I plan on eating it for lunch for the rest of the week. Some recipe notes: There are easily 8 side dish servings in... — Amy - Ellie's Mommie Jun 12, 2004

Drew's Special Rib Sauce

(6 people found this helpful) Posted by BeachGirl  

I cannot begin to even describe the deliciousness that is this sauce. I haven't even COOKED with it yet (I'm making ribs with it) and I've eaten about 1/4 cup just "tasting". I had been a fan of Sweet Baby Ray's. No longer...this is the one and... — Amy - Ellie's Mommie Jun 12, 2004

Homemade Velveeta - Substitute / Copycat

(10 people found this helpful) Posted by Connie K  

Love this! Made it with sharp cheddar, monterrey jack and colby and it came out delicious. Next time, I will use the whole packet of gelatin, as we like a firmer cheese, but that is the only change I would make, and as that is based on... — Amy - Ellie's Mommie Apr 8, 2004

Carrot Cake

(10 people found this helpful) Posted by Bertha C.  

Add me to the fans of this cake! This cake was super moist, very dense and just wonderful. I made it in two 8 inch rounds (I havled the recipe) and left out the nuts as the cakes were for a party and I wanted everyone to have some.... — Amy - Ellie's Mommie Mar 21, 2004

Mom's Famous Pound Cake

Holy Cow, this was a good cake! This recipe was suggested to me in response to a question I asked about making a true pound of butter, pound of sugar, pound of flour cake. And this is that cake! Just for fun, I weighed the flour and three... — Amy - Ellie's Mommie Mar 21, 2004

Cauliflower Kugel

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Caryn Gale  

I've never made a kugel before, so I wasn't sure what to expect. When it came out of the oven, it looked a little like scrambled eggs and cauliflower. But then I tasted it! Wow! Was it tasty! The texture was a tad odd (but I might have... — Amy - Ellie's Mommie Feb 9, 2004

Sweet Potato Polenta

Mom gives this one a 6! Great recipe! The whole family, including Ellie (19 months) loved it! Very creamy and delish! I even used whole milk instead of the cream, and it tasted so rich to this skim milk drinker! Wouldn't change a thing! — Amy - Ellie's Mommie Feb 9, 2004

Crock Pot Smothered Steak

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Braunda  

First, the substitutions: 1. I used chuck steak as I didn't have any round steak in the freezer; I don't think this affected the recipe at all. 2. I omitted the peppers as Mom can't eat them. 3. I subbed canned stewed tomatoes instead... — Amy - Ellie's Mommie Feb 8, 2004

Baked Steak with Pan Gravy

Posted by yooper  

Great recipe! The chuck steak I used was a 7-bone steak, and I removed the bone. The steak was also only a little over a pound, but it took the full cooking time (I wasn't sure if it would, but that old shoe leather cut needs that much time to... — Amy - Ellie's Mommie Jan 12, 2004

Sloppy Joes-Manwich Style

(4 people found this helpful) Posted by DiB's  

August 3, 2003 A very tasty recipe, but doesn't taste exactly like Manwich - hence the four stars. A few tips - puree/grind the peppers and onions in a blender rather than a food processor. A whole medium yellow onion is about half a cup. A... — Amy - Ellie's Mommie Jan 10, 2004
