I have some frozen, dark sweet cherries (unsweetened) that inadvertently became UNfrozen. I was looking for a recipe to use them up and found a cobbler recipe online that calls for mixed berries (frozen blackberries and raspberries, thawed). It calls for 1 tsp. lemon juice in the filling and 1/2...

Has anyone ever used of these? It is the Butter Bell Crock that keeps butter fresh and spreadable at room temperature. I wonder if it would be worth investing in....I use butter sometimes, but not every single day. Butter Bell Crocks

I didn't realize I had bought this when picking up ketchup at the store last time. I had some fries today from McDonald's and got the ketchup out. It tastes terrible! It is so sweet it is almost inedible to me. From what I understand, this is Heinz's attempt to make nice with all of the high...

I tried this recipe by request and I'm very pleased with how good it turned out! It is from our local electric cooperative newspaper. I followed the recipe exactly, except for the fact that I couldn't find a tri tip roast. I used a similar roast as recommended by the meat department attendent. I...

I would love to try this recipe with a few revisions....the first being to replace the peanut butter with something else. I do not like peanuts or peanut butter in savory foods. I would also replace the pre-packaged grilled chicken w/ my own. Looks like that would greatly reduce the sodium in...

Here is a recipe I tried this weekend. We used it to make soft tacos. Please see the notes at the bottom of the recipe. It can really be tailored to your personal taste. It just happens to be low cal and low fat! Enjoy! ************************************************* Creamy Mexican Crockpot...

Here we go.....!! I'm trying a new recipe in the crock pot. Mexican Crock Pot Creamy Chicken, making soft tacos out of it. Will report back later! Also using up some overripe bananas and making some Whole Wheat Banana Bread today.

I'm making a double batch of banana bread today. I only have a few pecans. Have some cashews (salted) in the freezer. Do ya'll think it would ruin the bread if I chopped those up with the pecans and threw them in?? Thanks!

I was doing some searching this morning re: Sloppy Reuben thread and found this website...interesting ideas for those that like horseradish.:chef: Horseradish Recipes - Seafood Recipes, Beef Recipes and Appetizer Recipes

I am considering making chocolate covered strawberries (if I can find some locally) for Valentine's Day. One of the recipes I'm looking at calls for 2 Tbsp of shortening. I have butter flavor Crisco and don't want to go buy regular shortening just to use 2 Tbsp. Would the butter flavor work?? I...

We were at TJ Maxx tonight and my boys saw Voss water for sale. ( Sparkling Mineral Water | Bottled Water Suppliers | Artesian Water Company) The only reason they wanted it was because they had seen a reference to it in a recent comedy movie we had watched.:rolleyes: On a whim I bought them each...

I bought a new gas stove in August. It's a Kenmore and I really like it. The only thing I have had a problem with are the grates on top of the burners. They are a black, glossy finish and are very slippery. For example, when I use my stove top grill/griddle...it slides all over the place. I...

I have some jasmine rice that I have kept in a tin container with lid. I put the package cooking instructions in to remember cooking time, etc. The package says "Best If Used By November 2010". Think it's okay to use? I don't worry about getting sick or anything, but wonder if the flavor will be...

Please give input on the technque to making a good grilled cheese sandwich. I have never had much luck at all. Usually, the bread gets burned before the cheese even starts to melt. I have skillets and I also have a grill/griddle that can be placed on the gas burners of my stove. I found a...

I've been wanting to make a roasted pork loin. I've never made one and found a recipe that I thought looked yummy. Went to the local grocery store (Homeland) and all I could find was the pre-packaged Hormel "Original" Extra Lean Pork Center Cut Loin Filet. It has a note: "Containing up to...

Has anyone successfully replaced heavy whipping cream in a recipe (soup in this case) with fat free half-and-half? I'm just wondering if it would change it too much or ruin it.

I notice we have an area labelled "Health, Nutrition and Special Diets". I have looked there and have not found what I am looking for. Is there an area or specific thread that includes lighter, healthier or low calorie recipes or tips? If there is, forgive me...I missed it! Thanks!

I made this bean salad recipe this weekend. I wanted to try it as it looked good and will fit in with my healthy eating plan. I followed the recipe exactly and something is missing. I cannot for the life of me figure out what it is.....but I want something added, I just cannot put my finger on...

I am posting the recipe in its original form, but I did tweak it to my liking.:chef: My tweaks included: I used chicken broth instead of vegetable. I reduced the amount of onion to 1 cup. I stirred the parsley into the soup just before it was done instead of using it for garnish. I did not...
