recipe

Greek Easter Cookies

-my2sun

recipe

O'Charley's Loaded Potato Soup

"This is very rich, cheesy and full of flavor for a potato soup. In my opinion, this recipe is better than the O'Charley's version."

-Bev

recipe

Banana Cream Pie

"My family loved this! As for the bananas, I used the ones on the ripe end but that were still firm. It makes the pie taste more banana-ish."

-Arashijing

recipe

Pineapple Upside-Down Cake

"Following other reviewers' suggestions, I melted the butter first, and I used pineapple juice instead of water. The cake could not have been more flavorful or moist."

-njgirl1404

recipe

"This was divine, lightly tangy and very flavorful. I think the dry mustard makes it taste extra special. I'll make this over and over again!"

-SaraFish

Easy Biscuits

-Christylee

recipe

Angel Food Cake

"The directions were easy, and the cake turned out awesome. One trick: When trying to get the cake out of the pan, use a plastic spatula. It does wonders and won't wreck the cake."

-Brown2013

recipe

Parmesan Crusted Tilapia

"This is great tilapia. Per another reviewer, I added olive oil to the crumbs to moisten them and they stuck well. The seasonings were just right, and the Parmesan cheese added delicious flavor."

-jean

recipe

Garlic Shrimp Pasta

"This is great for a weeknight meal. I added some lemon juice to the shrimp just before tossing in the pasta. I also tossed in a good amount of Parmesan, allowing it to melt before serving."

-Tiggrr

recipe

Cheese Pound Cake

"The texture is perfect — dense, but not heavy. Make sure to allow it to cool for 5 to 10 minutes in the pan. Then the cake will fall right out without sticking."

-Chef #581920

recipe

Ham with Pineapple-Honey Glaze

"It was my first time trying this technique to cook ham and it was fantastic! It was super moist from the first slice until the last one."

recipe

Deviled Eggs

"These are sweet and have a great zing to them. I added more mustard, because I couldn't taste it enough for my preference."

-Distant Goddess

recipe

Roasted Asparagus

-MEAN CHEF

recipe

Hummingbird Cake

"I made this for a bridal shower and it was a big hit. It's wonderfully moist with a chunky texture. Try toasting the pecans for added flavor."

-MilChef

recipe

Scalloped Potatoes

"Definitely a five-star recipe. I made as written except to add some onion in the layers. Really delicious."

-Carolyn in Toronto

recipe

Spinach-Stuffed Chicken Breast

"The breading came out crunchy, and the chicken was moist. I used basil-and-tomato-flavored feta, which worked perfectly. I baked it on parchment paper, which saved me the clean-up."

-manrat

recipe

Frizzled Cabbage

"I just love the natural flavor this recipe brings out of the cabbage, and it's so quick and easy to prepare. The only thing I do different is add a few shakes of hot sauce."

-ChefTraylee

recipe

Creamy Parmesan Leeks

"I simmered the leeks in a bit of water and followed another reviewer's suggestion and used sour cream. I used just enough to coat the leeks nicely, then sprinkled on Parmesan cheese."

-Paja

recipe

Oven-Baked Sea Bass

"This is a simple recipe if you're short on time and ingredients. One tip: If you plan on adding wine/vinegar, it's better to pour that on the fish first, then add the garlic mixture or you'll end up washing the mixture off."

-gonzonyc

recipe

"The dough spread after they were shaped, so they were not perfect round-shaped buns, but square-ish pull-apart shaped instead. They were soft and fluffy, though, and smelled fantastic."

-Chef #1333028

recipe

Coconut Cake

"Make sure you follow the directions exactly and be sure to use self-rising flour. It creates this wonderful light cake."

-ROV Chef

recipe

Incredible Lemon Cake

"This cake was so buttery and lemony from all that wonderful fresh zest. The smell alone will take your breath away."

-Kozmic Blues

recipe

Honey Baked Ham Copycat

"This is the best copycat of HoneyBaked ham I have ever tried. It was so moist! The key for me was placing the cut-end down and basting often."

-Shabby Sign Shoppe

recipe

Cinnamon Rolls

"These are wonderful cinnamon rolls. It's a very versatile, yummy dough — we've used it to make bierocks, pizza pockets, and a ham and cheese loaf."

-Larry Penrod

recipe

Grilled Lemon Salmon

"There wasn't a flake of salmon left on any of my family's plates. The marinade was not overpowering, and the lemon gives it a little extra tang that is just right."

-OzzieKath

recipe

Ham Salad Sandwich

"This is the ham salad of my childhood. I pulsed the celery, onion and ham in my food processor. I substituted cornichons for the hot pickles, which added a nice spice element."

-Artetc

recipe

Hard-Cooked Eggs

"It's definitely easier to peel eggs in the water — or while the eggs are still dripping wet. The egg white comes out fluffier and less rubbery than traditional hard-boiled eggs."

-Kimberly D.

recipe

Sausage Frittata

"I added some of the green onion with the sausage, then I also added some diced red bell pepper. I placed it in the oven for a few minutes and it was done perfectly."

-diner524

recipe

Honey Glazed Carrots

"I served this with chicken and steamed beans for a delicious dinner."

-**Jubes**

recipe

Fruit Salad with Pudding

"This is really good! However, I recommend that you make the pudding in a separate bowl. I added only a couple of scoops to give the fruit just a coat of pudding, and it was perfect."

-pure_heaven

recipe

Spicy Sausage-Stuffed Mushrooms

"I used hot sausage and decided to broil the mushrooms so the mushroom stayed crisp and fresh. I prepped the filling first, and the mushrooms were easy to fill at the last minute."

-luvmybge

recipe

Oven-Roasted Sweet Potatoes

"The potatoes were super tender and the onion had just a tiny bit of snap left, which I like. This is a great recipe that makes eating healthier a little easier."

-Kerry G

recipe

Southern Sweet Iced Tea

"I'm in love with this recipe. Talk about an iced tea that hits the spot! I wouldn't change a thing."

-Chef Treenie

recipe

Fresh Green Bean Casserole

"This was delicious. I used more onions and mushrooms than called for. Next time I would probably cut the amount of cheese in half, but overall this was a winner with everyone."

-vivmom

recipe

Creamy Garlic Penne Pasta

"I took some advice from other reviews and added mushrooms and chicken to make it a meal. I loved this because it was like having Alfredo sauce, but better for you."

-ACBL17

recipe

Soft Peanut Butter Cookies

"Yum. I could just eat the dough! It's so light and fluffy with just the right amount of peanut butter. Watch the oven, though; the cookies took longer to bake than expected."

-Tashaarr

recipe

Ultimate Lemon Meringue Pie

"The crust is a golden flaky treat and the lemon filling is tart, but still sweet enough to make you want another mouthful. Plus, the meringue crusted beautifully."

-rsarahl

recipe

Steamed Asparagus With Lemon

"Excellent! The most simple, perfect, veggie dish."

-CookiePuss

recipe

Potato Salad

-Ms. Mother Earth

recipe

Cracker Barrel Hash Brown Casserole

"This is close to Cracker Barrel's version. Thaw the hash browns first otherwise it gets watery. I added more cheese and stirred about halfway through — it helped crisp things up."

-LAURIE

recipe

Brown Sugar Glaze for Ham

"This is the best glaze for ham I have tried."

-cook5

recipe

Basic Quiche

"This is a wonderful recipe. The frozen pie crusts make it so easy and they are inexpensive. Plus, since the pie crust comes with its own pie pan, there's no dish to wash."

-Kumama Chef 579262

recipe

Banana Bread

"This is the only banana bread recipe I use. I substitute chocolate chips for the walnuts and it turns out perfect. I usually split the batter and make two loaves."

-kayluhlicious

recipe

"This uses a great combination of cheeses. It was very full of flavor and I really liked the addition of seasoned salt. I added some seasoned bread crumbs on the top for a crunchy crust."

-Missyb3

recipe

Molten Chocolate Cherry Babycakes

"Gooey, decadent and delicious. I made them ahead of time and kept them refrigerated until ready to bake and they turned out perfectly."

-May I Have That Recipe

recipe

Easter Nests with Jelly Bean Eggs

"These were so cute! I used butterscotch chips rather than the sugar and corn syrup mixture. I used mini-muffin tins to form the nests and let my 2-year-old help by putting the jelly beans on top."

-Lil Sis

recipe

Roast Leg of Lamb With Rosemary

"I've made this using both bone-in and boneless leg of lamb, and it's fabulous. It made the perfect Easter dinner. As an added bonus, we have enough leftovers to make lamb curry."

-Marion in Savannah

recipe

Easter Italian Bread

"I have tried for years to make good Easter bread, and I was ready to give up when I tried this recipe. This was delicious and as moist as any I have ever tasted."

-mzizi123_11035494

recipe

Macaroni Salad

"This is a nice, basic macaroni salad. I used mayonnaise and added some sugar and vinegar to add some tanginess. I added some onions for a nice crunch as well as flavor."
