Penne con Sauccia

Reviewed: Oct. 6, 2008
This was pretty good, but I made a few changes to suit our taste. First, I used a full pound of Johnsonville sweet Italian sausage, browned it on the stovetop and then cut in diagonal slices. I recommend starting with maybe 1 tsp. of the crushed red pepper and adding more if you want more spice. I used 2 heaping tsp. of minced garlic and sauteed it in a pan with olive oil, a whole onion sliced very thin, and 2 cups of fresh sliced mushrooms (after removing the stems). Then I added it to the sauce ingredients and simmered for 45-60 minutes on the stove. I also added 1 tbsp. of cocoa powder to the sauce. It cut the bite out of the tomatoes and made the sauce a deep rich red/brown. I served it with a fresh salad and crusty bread. Yummy.

Cheesecake Supreme

Reviewed: Oct. 6, 2008
This is excellent, my husband can't stop talking about it. I did change a few things as recommended by other readers. I decreased the sugar to 1/4 cup in the crust. I added 2 tsp. vanilla to the batter. I baked as was directed by other reviews at 200 degrees for 3 hours and 10 minutes. However, as beautiful at it turned out, it was not quite set in the middle. The next time I make it, I'll try baking at 315 degrees for about 3 hours and check on it. I served it with sliced fresh strawberries. The taste is wonderful. Thanks for sharing this great recipe. I needn't look any further.

Tomatillo Salsa Verde

Reviewed: Oct. 6, 2008
Great way to use the 5 pounds of tomatillos that a friend dropped off. I subbed cilantro for oregano and added lime juice and a few cherry tomatoes. Wanted to suit our family's tastes as well as use up some stuff in the house.

Baked Beef Stew

Reviewed: Oct. 6, 2008
I loved this. I completely forgot to add the onion and it was still fantastic. Since I had it on hand, I used tapioca, and it was a great consistency. I did not add the cubed bread, because that didn't sound good to me. I would definitely make this again, it was full of flavor. I don't think this recipe needs as much reworking as some others have suggested, it's really good as is.

Shrimpcargot

Reviewed: Oct. 6, 2008
Let me start off by saying I HATE shrimp. This was my first time cooking them and the recipe turned out good. I even ate some of this....and liked it. Next time i'm gonna dice up the shrimp before stuffing the shrooms (since its the texture of shrimp im not a fan of). Also, as suggested by the sumitter, I sauteed the mushrooms in the butter/garlic sauce for about 10 min.

Exquisite Pizza Sauce

Reviewed: Oct. 6, 2008
This is absolutely amazing. I added everything except the marjoram (because I didnt have it). I doubled the recipe for once of the Jay's Signature Crust pizzas from here and instead of letting it sit. i let the sauce simmer for about 15min. This is sweeter than your typical pizza sauce.

Jay's Signature Pizza Crust

Reviewed: Oct. 6, 2008
Great recipe. I dont have a KA so i did this by hand and followed the recipe. I started with about 2.5 cups of flour in the mixing bowl and then kneaded in the rest. I kneaded it for about 5 min before letting it raise. Will definately make again.

Allison's Cold Crab Dip

Reviewed: Oct. 6, 2008
This is very easy to prepare. I did add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice for more zing. And yes I did make a full batch. Took it to a social hour at the RV park and everyone loved it.

Sour Cream Chicken Enchiladas

Reviewed: Oct. 6, 2008
This is an excellent recipe. I only gave it 4 stars because it had way too much cilantro for my taste. Next time I'll only use a couple tablespoons of cilantro. I also wish that I would have read more reviews before I made this dish. I should have tasted the sour cream sauce as I was adding the jalapeno salsa because it was a little too hot for my son. That's okay...lesson learned. Lastly, I used a rotisserie chicken for added convenience. Over all, I'll probably be making this dish for years to come.
