White Golden Punch

Date: 2012/04/23

Leftover Turkey Noodle Soup

Date: 2014/12/11
"This soup was a nice way to use the extra meat that is always left on the carcass. After cooking it the meat pretty much feel off. It was good soup but I used linguine noodles, broke in half, instead of egg noodles and it was a little hard to scoop up the noodles. Next time I will use egg noodles."

Baked Corn on the Cob

Date: 2014/09/11
"We just picked the last of our sweet corn yesterday so I wanted to fix it for supper. It always takes so long for a large pan of water to boil on our stove so I thought I would try this recipe once. It was easy to prepare and turned out great. You didn't even need to add more butter when you ate it, of course, my husband did. I wished I would have tried this sooner. I will have to remember this recipe for next year."

Strawberry Cream Cheese Dessert

Date: 2014/08/26
"OMG! I should have made two of these. I made it for my daughter's birthday party because she loves strawberries. She loved it and so did everyone else.

Date: 2013/10/22
"This super easy cake was a big hit at our house. Using a cake mix made it easy to prepare and the spider web was simple to make. It was funny how that simple decoration caught the attention of the kids. Usually they are too busy for dessert after dinner but they all wanted a piece of this cake."

Crunchy Salad

Date: 2013/09/27
"Great salad! I loved the crunch that the noodles and almonds gave the salad. This salad was easy to make and we all loved it. I did have dressing leftover so I am going to use it on just a regular lettuce salad."

Crispy Crumble Apple Crisp

Date: 2013/09/17
"I used apples from our apple tree to make this apple crisp. I wasn’t sure how the apples would be since I had never made anything from them before but it was great. We loved the apple crisp served warm with ice cream. I am going to make it again this weekend when we have friends over."

Lucky Charm Snack Bars

Date: 2013/09/05

Tomato and Corn Salsa

Slow Cooker Chicken and Rice

Date: 2013/07/01

Old-Style Potato Salad

Date: 2013/06/10

Rhubarb Custard Yellow Cake

Date: 2013/05/10

Cauliflower Lettuce Salad

Date: 2013/04/16
"We fix salad a lot with our meals so I am always looking for something different that is simple. This salad only has three main ingredients and a quick dressing. We really liked it and we just used bacon bits rather than frying bacon but it was still very good. I am sure it would have been even better if I would have used real bacon."

Mexican Corn Bread

Date: 2013/03/22
"This Mexican Corn Bread was tender but firm and it had so much flavor. I only used 1/2 of the onion and minced it pretty fine. The cheese, corn, chilies, and jalapeno really gave this bread a boost of flavor. It went great with the Taco Pasta."

Taco Pasta

Date: 2013/03/22

Easy Lemon Bars

Date: 2013/03/11
"Great lemon bars! They reminded me of the lemon bars my grandma use to make. I didn't have a 9 x 9 pan so I made them in a 9 x 13. They were just a little thinner than these look but were still delicious."

Crispy Powdered Sugar Cookies

Date: 2013/02/11
"Great sugar cookies! My kids couldn't stop eating them."

Hamburger Steak

Date: 2013/01/21
"This is the perfect recipe for my husband. He would just as soon only eat the meat all the time. He thinks the bun is too filling. I kind of liked it this way also. It was pretty tasty and I didn't need to worry whether I had buns in the house or not. We will probably have this quite often. It makes for a quick and easy weeknight supper."

Easy Fruit Punch

Date: 2013/01/04
"I am always looking for an easy punch to make when we have friends and family over for dinner, especially when there are a lot of kids coming. This recipe couldn't be any easier to make and it is just the thing for kids. It was perfect for Christmas but I will be using it a lot in the future."

Kool-Aid Punch

Date: 2012/12/06
"I made this punch for my son's birthday party. It was simple to make and all the kids loved it. I used fruit punch Kool-Aid. It had great flavor and the recipe made a huge batch. My kids thought that was great to have punch leftover for the next couple of days. I mixed the seven-up with it as they drank it so that it didn't get flat. I will definitely use this punch recipe the next time I need a beverage for a large group."

Famous Pumpkin Pie

Date: 2012/11/19
"I have never made a pie before but my 3 year old son kept asking for a pumpkin pie so I decided to try it. It turned out pretty good. I used a refrigerated pie crust so that made it easier. After I got it done may son was disappointed . . . I think he thought it should have looked like a jack-o-lantern. He did eat a little piece though."

Shredded Chicken Gumbo

Date: 2012/10/14
"Great recipe! Using the rotisserie chicken really made the recipe easier to make. I had my folks over for supper with I made it and my Dad loved it with all the different vegetables and he thought it was really flavorful. He ate two big bowls of it!"

Sausage Pin Wheels

Date: 2012/10/05
"These sausage pin wheels tasted great but they didn't look too great. They were hard to roll up because the dough was so soft. The crescent rolls wanted to stick to the pan with I tried to roll them up. Maybe greasing the pan first would help. Next time I might try cutting the rolled out dough into two sections so I am not trying to roll up such a long flimsy piece. Taste was good, just have to get the rolling technique down better."

Easy Spaghetti and Sauce

Date: 2012/09/18
"The perfect spaghetti sauce recipe for our house. There are not chunks of stuff in it that make my kids turn their noses up. They all ate it with no complaints. I couldn't believe it!"

Fried Green Beans

Date: 2012/09/16
"My new favorite way to cook green beans! These fried beans were easy to make but they are full of flavor."

Cherry Cola

Date: 2012/08/27
"I like to make these cherry colas for the kids once in a while. They think they are a special treat when I add cherry to each one. I usually add more cherry juice than what is called for just to boost the cherry flavor a little more."

Layered Chicken and Pasta Salad

Date: 2012/08/15
"I love recipes like this. It has everything you would want for a complete meal; meat, pasta, and vegetables. We enjoyed this as a light meal. I did add a little more dressing mixture."

Slow Cooker Beef & Gravy

Date: 2012/07/30
"I have been searching and searching for a recipe to use our soup bones in, other than soup. This recipe was fantastic. The meat fell of the bones and the gravy was the best I have ever made. My kids loved it over the mashed potatoes. I am not great at making homemade mashed potatoes but it was well worth the effort. I think the potato water help make the gravy so good. Will definitely use this recipe again!"

Broccoli and Bacon Salad

Date: 2012/07/06
"I have made this salad several times and someone is always asking for the recipe. The bacon and raisins really add to the taste."

Banana Cream Pie

Date: 2012/05/28

Grilled Peppercorn Chicken Sandwich

Date: 2012/05/25
"I can't believe what a great flavor this marinated chicken had. The chicken was moist and the flavor from the marinade was not overpowering."

Grilled Rosemary Potatoes

Date: 2012/05/14
"Good grilled potatoes but next time I think I will leave out the rosemary because I am not crazy about it. Also, had to grill for longer than 20 minutes for potatoes to get done."

Rhubarb Cherry Dessert

Date: 2012/05/07
"This rhubarb dessert was good but just not as good as some of the other recipes I have for rhubarb. Make sure you keep it in the frig, otherwise it gets pretty soft."

Vegetable Casserole with Broccoli and Zucchini

Date: 2012/04/30
"Good recipe to use zucchini in. The French fried onion rings on top were a nice addition. They add crunch and flavor."

Ham and Cheese Bake

Date: 2012/03/29
"Good breakfast bake! I left out the mushrooms though because we don't like mushrooms. I think it would also be good with asparagus in place of the broccoli."

Banana Split Cake with Cherries

Date: 2012/03/12
"This dessert was good and everyone liked it but you will want to make it when you know most of it will be eaten right away because it didn't keep real well. It was a little watery the next day and the bananas darken."

Grandma's Sugar Cookies 5

Date: 2012/02/23
"These were fun to make and I got lots of compliments. For cutout sugar cookies these were really tasty. I used almond extract in the frosting rather than vanilla."
