5-Star Reviews: October 2017

"This is my husband and my all time favorite chili! The poblano peppers give it a little kick, but mostly add to the richness of the flavors! It is easy to spice up a little bit more if that's how you like it. I now keep the ingredients on hand to make it anytime we're in the mood for a great, warming meal!" —leaogozelec

"Fantastic. Veggies were perfectly crisp tender and the sauce is fantastic. Paired with coconut jasmine rice. Like one reviewer, made some without chili paste for the kids." —JFrankH

"I make this for my son to share at work. He says that it makes grown men cry it is so good." —Dorothyjeter

"A delicious fall recipe with easy to use ingredients. I used a boneless chop just because that is my preference. It was easy to cook and very tasty." —MrsDana

"These were wonderful. Used cabbage slaw as a topper for the tacos which made them even better. Definitely a keeper!" —LindaEtzold

"This soup is delicious and incredibly filling. I usually substitute frozen mixed vegetables for the carrots and the celery. My whole family loves it!" —SousChefLinda

"This dessert was to die for. My friends couldn't believe it was light! I did need to make more crust for the bottom. (Next time I'll double it.) I also loved the topping so much that I'll probably double that part too. Absolutely scrumdiddly!" —Afifi514

"Will make over and over and OVER again! keeper!" —Lenochka

"I used spinach instead of the lettuce and endive because it was what I had on hand, and it was delicious! Definitely a keeper!" —SandiePAC

"I absolutely love this recipe. I've made it several times, including an appetizer at my bridal shower. I serve it with butternut squash or tomato basil soup to make it a meal. I use the Pillsbury thin crust (follow the directions on the package), and bake it with cornmeal on the outside to give it a nice crisp crust. Yum!" —sciencegirl

"This is such a great recipe to keep in your fall-winter rotation. I change it up each time I make it depending on what veggies and meat I have. One of our favorite additions is red potatoes and mushrooms. Try adding grilled chicken for extra protein!" —jldillon

"Wow, this is really good! Most pumpkin pie is so heavy, but this is really light and fluffy. This may be my new favorite holiday pie." —buxtrosion

"This sandwich will knock your socks off. The combination of salty ham, the bite of blue cheese and the sweet smoothness of pears is a sensation for your tounge. My guests have unfailingly asked for the recipe EVERY time I've made them." —JessAK

"Excellent recipe! And I've had it in Brazil, too. The texture of the base is velvety: so delicious! This was my first attempt and I altered it a bit by adding in clams and mussels. Yummy!" —DanRains

"Absolutely worth make and will make again. My husband (picky eater) loved it—even as a leftover the following evening. Homemade marinara sauce is the way to go and will make this for a company dish." —EastMadison

"This recipe is absolutely WONDERFUL. Rarely, do I ever write reviews, but this recipe deserves mega attention! This is absolutely wonderful, don't change a thing. The pork was perfect and great to use in a variety of ways!" —Speace

"This is delicious! I do not need to look any further for a good Brussels sprouts recipe. This is it!!" —racingchef

"Delicious! We had it for dinner tonight and loved it. It was more spicy than I expected, but not overwhelmingly so. The sweet potatoes were a nice addition to the creamy grits, which were a lovely balance with the spicy shrimp." —WildJoy

"Rich and delicious! Group agreed the apple was an ideal serving spoon. Tasty!!" —mmayer

"Made this for our annual Halloween dinner party. It was well received by our guests, one of whom is on a gluten-free diet. Used two bags of Pop Secret 94% fat-free microwave popcorn. I like the sweet/salty combo! And it stayed crispy for several days in a ziploc bag." —KristieV

"I have made this numerous times now and it has easily become one of my family's favorite salads. It is good with a formal dinner or a casual pasta night dinner. And it comes together so easy. Definitely use fresh parm as it makes all the difference in the world." —Amanda8899

"Spectacular. The homemade dressing is amazing! I did assemble the whole sandwiches and then cook them in a pan, like a grilled cheese, so that they would be warmed through" —sukeedog

"I get a CSA box and am always trying to find new ways to use veggies. I loved a new way to use kale. The flavor profile is fabulous. I'll definitely add this to my rotation." —inwinecountry

"Absolutely fantastic! I will never use any other sauce again. So easy to make a batch and freeze most of it for later" —amd0716

"I liked the entire recipe, but I especially liked the pistachio-lemon vinaigrette! I've actually made it on its own three more times to use as salad dressing—so very good." —wonderwab

"Wow, great texture and flavor. Everyone raved. Was going to omit the glaze but it really made it perfect. This will be my go to banana bread recipe." —SueConnell

"Fantastic recipe and so simple. I served with egg noodles. I will use this instead of my regular pot roast recipe. I made this for my inlaws and they loved it." —Mccombss

"Delicious! I've shared this recipe with many friends. These are great anytime of year, despite pumpkin and cranberries being holiday foods." —fortworthlisa1

"My husband loves when I make these. Sometimes I use spicy ground pork sausage and it turns out great as well. These are a staple at our house!! :)" —Sroecker

"Made this for my family of 6. Used the ground turkey and veggie chili with beans. Will definitely make this again. We all agreed the hash browns, after they brown, need to be mixed up with the chili. Then put the cheese on top to melt. I made the recipe in a 9x13 pan. One recipe fit the pan nicely. We even had a little bit left over for lunch the next day. There was a fight for it though!" —Terre43

"My daughter-in-law made this cake last night. It was incredible - I'd highly recommend it! This will become a family favorite!" —BesteJ
