Awesome Sausage, Apple and Cranberry Stuffing

Reviewed: Dec. 4, 2008
I used sweet italian sausage for this recipe, and 2 boxes of cornbread stovetop stuffing mix. I also used a whole can of chicken broth, which I am glad for or it would have been REALLY dry! Next time I will definitely try this by making my our bread and crumbs, etc. However it turned out fantastic the way it was! I would also add more apple to this, or maybe applesauce? Either way- this is a keeper and I won't ever be making the plain old boxed stuffing again! Thanks!

Oranged Cranberry Sauce

Reviewed: Dec. 4, 2008
I followed this recipe exactly- and WOW! I will NEVER ever serve canned cranberry sauce again! I simmered this down to a thick sauce consistency and everyone loved it! The orange was a perfect compliment to the cranberries, although I will leave out the zest next time. We have enough leftovers to freeze or have as jam! Thank you!

Deviled Eggs

Reviewed: Dec. 4, 2008
I've never measured my deviled egg ingredients before, but I was looking for a recipe to make it faster and easier and this fit the bill! This was SO super easy, the amounts were perfect and didn't need to be adjusted at all! My guests loved them, they were beautiful and gone so fast! Thanks for a perfect recipe- I've already passed it on! Just a tip- I beat all the ingredients together with a hand beater/mixer, spooned it into a ziplock baggy and cut a corner off- voila! I piped the filling into my eggs with no mess and super fast!

Reviewed: Dec. 3, 2008
I didn't use enough oil and didn't get the browning I wanted.. Next time I will follow the directions better! Good though!

Special Irish Beef Stew

Reviewed: Dec. 2, 2008
Sweet. This looks like what my mom makes. Serve in bowls with a pepper grinder and tons of bread. Drop dumplings go great with this, about half a dozen or so.

World's Best Lasagna

Reviewed: Dec. 2, 2008
Good. The trick is often to make the sauce yourself or start with your homemade spaghetti sauce.

Tomato Basil Salad

Reviewed: Dec. 2, 2008
The quality of the ingredients makes a BIG difference. We're lucky to live in the warm Californian area that was formerly prime farmland.

Chocolate Cream Pie I

Reviewed: Dec. 2, 2008
Better than my grandmothers, in a different way. It's very runny, I'd cut the liquid a little or possibly add a thickener like flour or corn starch.

Sugar Free Eggnog

Reviewed: Dec. 2, 2008
I love this stuff. I made mine with 4 cups of unsweetened almond milk and added a short of sugar free french vanilla torani syrup as a sweetener. Making it with this almond milk reduced the calories to 68 per 8 ounce serving. YUM! Thanks for the recipe

Turkey in a Bag

Reviewed: Nov. 30, 2008
Beware...your turkey will cook quite a bit faster in the bag. I had a 15 1/2 lb. turkey and it was done in 2-1/2 hours. I noticed how quickly it was cooking and lowered the oven temp to 325 and still it was that fast! My turkey was brined which also speeds the cooking process. I spread a mixture of butter, olive oil and spices under the skin of the breast and over the entire turkey. The bird brown browned nicely. I was concerned at first because I had tons of drippings in the bag but they weren't nice and carmelized like they are when you roast without a bag but I just added a bit of Kitchen Bouquet browning sauce to my gravy and it was wonderful! Great result. Next time I'll turn the oven temp down to 325 and plan for a much quicker cooking time.
