Banana Banana Bread

Posted by Shelley Albeluhn  

Made this in a bundt pan, which I usually do for banana and zucchini breads. This results in a delicious banana pudding cake - I think "banana bread" is a misnomer. I would serve this fresh out of the oven with some vanilla bean ice cream for... — karenrae Sep 13, 2009

Steven's World Famous To-Die-For Sour Cream Chicken

(2 people found this helpful) Posted by Steven Loeffler  

I used light sour cream, a different combo of spices (smoked paprika, thyme, salt, & pepper), and only about 1/2 cup butter. It still came out a little greasy - I think you could cut back the butter even more. I'm a veggie so I didn't try it... — karenrae Sep 10, 2009

Peach Jam

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by DiB's  

This never jelled for me - wah. I had added a few more peaches and I thought the right amount of sugar, but I boiled it for more than an hour and it stayed at 200 degrees F. I finally gave up and added 1/2 t. cinnamon and 1/4 t. nutmeg along with... — karenrae Aug 24, 2009

Supper Huevos Rancheros

Posted by Ginny Sue  

I made this for a hearty breakfast. The salsa I used (plus the Tabasco green pepper sauce) added a little too much heat, but it tasted delicious! I minced some cilantro and sprinkled it on the top. If I make it this spicy again, I'll want to add a... — karenrae Jul 11, 2009

Guava Mojito

Posted by mama's kitchen  

Delish! A perfect pink color for a girly get together. I'll go heavy on the mint sprigs next time, as not much of the mint pieces come through the strainer, and I like my mint pieces in a mojito. Thanks for the great recipe! — karenrae Jul 5, 2009

Pancakes

Posted by Ellen Brody  

Giving 5 stars because I was a dork and gave it 1 star yesterday... because, I just realized, I used baking SODA instead of powder. Oops. Sorry. — karenrae Jun 13, 2009

Unbelievably Easy Potato Soup

Posted by Vina  

I love this soup. I've made it several times now, always with great results. It's so budget-friendly and tastes so good. Perfect with a green salad and some crusty bread for dinner. Thanks! — karenrae Jun 12, 2009

Raspberry Syrup

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Vicki G.  

Great! A little runny, but I think I'll just need to cook it a little longer next time before adding the raspberries. Thanks for the recipe! — karenrae May 30, 2009

Bev's Macaroni and Cheese

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Bev  

Perfect. This will be my go-to mac and cheese recipe from now on! We were running a little low on plain cheddar so I used about 1/3 Tillamook smoked sharp cheddar — added a nice unique flavor. — karenrae May 12, 2009

Teriyaki Marinade for Chicken or Steak

Posted by papergoddess  

Really, really good. A huge hit. We marinated chicken breasts four about 4 hours, and grilled them on the BBQ along with some fresh pineapple slices. — karenrae Apr 26, 2009

Red Pepper Dip

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Mille® ™  

I am very sorry, but we all thought this was not very good. It could be because I roasted my own red peppers instead of buying them in the jar, but I thought that would amp up the flavor if anything. Instead it was very, very bland. Sorry! — karenrae Apr 23, 2009

Easter Nests With Jelly Bean Eggs

(4 people found this helpful) Posted by winkki  

Awesome! I took another reviewer's suggestion and used butterscotch chips instead of the corn syrup and sugar. And we used mini Cadbury chocolate eggs instead of jelly beans. The light blue look so cute, like little Robins' Nests! I may crunch up... — karenrae Apr 9, 2009

Mandarin Salad

Posted by Marie  

I want to love this salad, but it's a bit too sweet. I want to take this to Easter dinner (it's so pretty and colorful!) so I did a test run last night, exactly as stated, and all three of us thought it was just a little on the too-sweet side. I... — karenrae Apr 9, 2009

Spaghetti & Puttanesca Sauce

Posted by Maine-iac  

I thought this was excellent. I did add a chopped onion that I let cook a little too long, so the sauce was on the sweet side — my fault! I'll follow the recipe exactly next time, and I'll love it even more. It very closely resembled the... — karenrae Mar 31, 2009

Plain Roasted Artichoke Hearts

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Kumquat the Cat's friend  

These tasted yummy, but they cooked a little faster than I expected - I had to remove them from the oven 15 minutes early, and they were nearly burned. But they were still good. Just not sure I would want to make them very often, because they're... — karenrae Mar 31, 2009

Irish Rosie's Irish Soda Bread

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by 1Steve  

Excellent! Only one very minor complaint: I'm not crazy about the flat sides from the springform pan. But it sure does make it easy to form into a nice round loaf. Yummy, yummy, yummy. A keeper. — karenrae Mar 18, 2009

Vegetarian Irish Stew

Posted by That is Dr House to you  

Very good! I subbed Better Than Bullion No-Beef base for the Marmite, and added a cup of Guinness, doing my best to ignore the fish bladder thing. I subbed some homemade veggie broth for the water for some extra flavor. I also left out the fake... — karenrae Mar 18, 2009
