5-Star Reviews: April 2015

"This is one of the best pasta salads I've ever eaten. I made it for our Life Group meeting and everyone raved about it. Will definitely make again and often." —Jerlinej

"This is sooooo good!!!!!! Easy, cheap, healthy, and filling! This will be a regular meal in my house. If you like spicy drizzle with Siracha after plating. Yum!" —khaos2442

"This came out very tender and moist. I cooked mine longer since my husband prefers it more well done. I didn't use bay, but used fresh oregano instead. I will definitely use this recipe in the future. I marinated it for about half the time. Still was very good." —martyj

"Out of hundreds of recipes I've tried, this is incredible! The flavor combinations come together in an amazing way and it is absolutely delicious. It feels like a high end gourmet dish yet is relatively simply to make. Give it a shot and you (and your family, guests, etc.) won't be sorry!" —AlwaysRm4Jello

"Super easy and very tasty! Makes lots of yummmy bars so may be best for a small get together or you may find yourself eating lots! Top with the garnish for looks but really good without the extra cream and strawberry." —Bella30

"I lived in SE Asia for two years and visit regularly. This recipe is spot on. It makes me really, really happy." —TokyoJim

"Great way to prepare carrots quickly and deliciously! Will most definitely make again!" —contentedgirl

"My only complaint is that I can't stop eating it! This is so incredibly delicious--I followed the recipe exactly." —Suze02

"I have never been so pleased and just thrilled with how great and easy this recipe is. The puff pastry made this so light and fluffy not dry like standard crusts. The filling was perfect." —concordnc

"Directions were perfect and easy to follow, and my husband -- a pie fanatic -- said this was in the top three pies he'd had in his entire life!" —CaroleKay

"So easy and incredible! The cooking spray you put on before baking really gives it that crunchy deep-fried texture!! They tasted better than some I''ve had in restaurants." —Jennifer

"The dish overall reminds me of something a 5 star restaurant would serve. This is definitely a great recipe that I plan to make again and again." —beingoofy

"Amazing! I couldn't believe how easy this was and how good it was! Definitely good enough to serve to company, but so quick it can be a week night meal. I've made it with garlic mashed potatoes, put the chicken on top and sauce for nice presentation and that lemon sauce just bursts with flavor. For a quick weeknight meal I've left out the fresh sage, just sprinkled some dry on the breasts and it still worked." —cvillecook

"One of the best fish tacos we've had! I've made it two weeks in a row and seconds was requested! :) success! I didn't change anything but will def make the sauce with 2 jalapeños so I can taste a little kick to it. Keeping this recipe!" —larvizu09

"Perfect crockpot recipe. I cooked it on low for 6 hours and it came out perfectly. I can't help but think mushrooms would be a great addition. I served it over mashed potatoes. The family loved it." —daneanp

"These cookies seriously are the easiest and most delicious cookies I've ever made! I love peanut butter and love chocolate chip cookies, so why not combine the two!! I always get people asking me to share this recipe after they've eaten the cookies!" —loripikeinca

"So good! Used ground turkey instead of ground pork but followed the rest of the recipe exactly. A lot of the sauce does cook away so if you want a really saucy slider, you might want to double the marinara sauce. I'll probably use 2 cups next time." —sweeti8030

"REALLY good! My new favorite side. Served with spicy honey chicken thighs and roasted garlic potatoes. Will make again and again." —kindy

"This one is absolutely fantastic! Never again will I make any other kind of banana bread! Added nuts because, well, you just have to. The boozy flavor is just a perfect nice touch for the overall balance of this recipe. Will definitely be making it again and again!." —Achsah17

"This recipe was amazing! I love the taste and texture. My coffee cake came out looking exactly like the picture in the Cooking Light Magazine. I had one slice and can't wait for another!"

"Hard to believe how simple this cake is. I kept re-reading the recipe to make sure I hadn't left anything out. Took just minutes to make and is absolutely delicious. I had half and half instead of cream, so I added an extra egg yolk for richness. The strawberries are fabulous—just a first-rate combination." —island2

"My husband is the master of risotto (the non-light kind, with lots of butter and oil) and he even said this was amazing. Followed the recipe to a T, except used a bit more liquid to get the right consistency. Amazing!" —Rebeccacdm

"Wow! I'm glad I picked this carrot cake recipe to try. The cake is excellent just as is—very moist and tasty! I made the cake into cupcakes instead and reduced the baking time by 10 minutes. It produced 18 cupcakes and they are so good as is that I didn't even bother making the icing." —anonymous

"I really enjoyed these, and will keep the recipe to make again. They are simple to prepare, but have a complex set of flavors. The sauce is also delicious. Next time I may make them into a sandwich with english muffins." —E

"I've made the original King Ranch Chicken Casserole for years, but when I made this Mac & cheese version the other day, it became an instant hit with my entire family. Definitely not a diet dish, but very worth the occasional treat." —chocoholic66

"I made this for my husband for his birthday.......IT WAS DELICIOUS. We had guests for dinner and they all agreed the flavors were crisp and clean. Even the non clam lovers enjoyed the meal." —GrandmaKY

"WOW this was delicious!! It was easy to make, the skin was crispy and the chicken was tender and juicy. Baking this on the broiler pan is brilliant as the fat drips down and the chicken isn't cooking in the drippings. The next time I roast a whole chicken, I will be using this method." —Karen

"Great salad for a hot day. Used non-fat greek yogurt instead of sour cream. Excellent way to use up leftover chicken." —Momthra

"I made this a few weeks ago, and I'm embarassed to say my fiancé and I finished the whole thing in one night. It was incredible! My fiancé doesn't like chipotle so I just used fresh jalapenos instead, but this was soooo delicious. It felt healthy too with the sweet potatoes, but still felt like an indulgence. Make this when you're looking for some serious comfort food." —aesorensen
