catpoe728 rated and reviewed the recipe Impossibly Easy Sausage Breakfast Pie

"This is incredibly YUMMY! I used spicy sausage, maybe a tad bit more cheese (sharp cheddar) and a tad bit more of the wet mixture and it was GREAT! I'm guessing it is the shredded frozen potatoes in it but it just melts right in your mouth! I cooked the sausage, onions and red peppers the night before and stuck those in the fridge. Next morning, heated them slightly and proceeded with the recipe. Was done putting together in like 5-10 minutes. Highly recommend!!"

"These are YUMMY YUMMY YUMMY! And I love that you start with a cookie mix. So incredibly easy. Hmmmm, the smell of maple, Christmas time and a warm cup of coffee all together...FABULOUS!"

catpoe728 rated and reviewed the recipe Creamy Seafood Pasta

"This was good. A little more time consuming for me than the 30 mins indicated :-) Don't think I used the right shrimp b/c it wasn't available at the store so may have had some impact on the taste. Unsure about this one, it was good but neither my daughter nor I were WOW'ed."

catpoe728 rated and reviewed the recipe Banana-Nut Cake with Peanut Butter Frosting

"This was okay, but was just too much like banana nut bread instead of "cake." The icing was YUMMY, I even added more peanut butter to it. But even as sweet and peanut buttery as it was I was surprised that the flavor still seemed to be somewhat overpowered by the banana. Also, I added some semi-sweet chocolate chips to it, which were a welcome addition."

catpoe728 rated and reviewed the recipe Cheesy Mexican Corn Bake

"This was just "ok". May have been my fault b/c I didn't use the poblano (?) peppers. Used chopped green chilies instead and probably should've used more. Would've been better with slightly more "kick" to it."

catpoe728 rated and reviewed the recipe Seaside BLT Pasta Salad

"This was an interesting combination. I used the imitation crab meat (sort of shredded it) in this and spiced it up a little with Phillips Seafood Seasoning (to taste) before adding to salad. Everyone seemed to enjoy for our Father's Day gathering."

catpoe728 rated and reviewed the recipe Broiled Tilapia Parmesan

"First try at fish in a long time...and oh my goodness, this was fantastic! Fish was cooked perfectly and the sauce is to absolutely die for! So super easy and FAST...you gotta try it! Bet this would be great for chicken breasts too!"

catpoe728 rated and reviewed the recipe Strawberries and Cream Dessert Squares

"Made this for Easter and everyone LOVED it...had to fight to keep one small piece to carry home. My crust was a little thicker (made in 13X9 pan)so thought maybe I should try jellyroll pan next time, but everyone said that's WHY they loved it...the crust was so yummy! Will make again, although to me a little labor intensive with chopping all those strawberries!"

catpoe728 rated and reviewed the recipe Tastiest Turkey Meat Loaf

"First time making turkey meatloaf and it was YUMMY! I did use a combination of wheat loaf bread pulled into small pieces and the italian breadcrumbs and added a pinch extra of italian seasoning. Other than that, followed recipe and it was great! Love the sauce on top!"

catpoe728 rated and reviewed the recipe Oatmeal-Chocolate Chip Cookies

"I'm sure these are yummy, but here's a little time saver...just use the Oatmeal Chocolate Chip BC cookie mix!!! I then add chopped dates (the baking kind, sort of sugary coated) and pecans and you have the BEST cookie...it's my signature cookie and one that EVERYONE loves and asks for! The secret is NOT TO OVERBAKE!!! Take them out when they look just a little underdone then let them sit/set on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes!"

catpoe728 rated and reviewed the recipe Healthified Chicken Tortilla Casserole

"This is YUMMY YUMMY YUMMY!! Even my 13 year old daughter LOVED it! I know people hate when you change the recipe but just a few notes/suggestions...used Southwestern chicken breast from Perdue Short Cuts, omitted green pepper (hate chopping) and used a can of Rotelle tomatoes w/ chilies and added a can of Southwestern corn (corn, black beans, etc). For cheese on top I used some of the Taco flavored cheese with Mexican blend. It has a little bite to it but is oh so yummy! You won't be disappointed."

catpoe728 rated and reviewed the recipe Easy Cheese and Bacon Quiche

"This was yummy and pretty easy to throw together. Love the little "kick" of the cayenne pepper. Pretty much used any shredded cheese on hand...didn't want to buy a whole block of swiss to shred myself. Want to try with sausage instead of Canadian bacon too!"

catpoe728 rated and reviewed the recipe Slow Cooker Cheesy Potato Soup

"This is YUMMY! I actually put the potatoes in the slow cooker still frozen and it worked just fine. Also, I did use 1/2 c of half and half plus 1/2 c milk with the flour mixture. Otherwise did just the same and it was GREAT! Will def be a staple for cold winter nights!!"

catpoe728 rated and reviewed the recipe Brined Whole Turkey

"I haven't tried this recipe but hope to this Thanksgiving...sounds yummy! Not to sound dumb, but can someone explain to me the significance of "skewering" back the neck skin and folding up the wings? And is all of that supposed to stay like that during cooking or is it just trying to get things in the best position while brushing the turkey with butter? I'm confused...HELP!"

catpoe728 rated and reviewed the recipe Gluten Free Mushroom Pecan Appetizers

"Took this to a scrapbooking event and everyone LOVED it. Only thing I may try differently next time is to do 1/2 shredded swiss cheese and 1/2 shredded pepper jack cheese for a little kick!"

catpoe728 rated and reviewed the recipe Pumpkin-Cranberry Muffins

"These muffins were yummy...definitely better "served warm" as the recipe says. Also, would possibly add a TAD bit more of the spices with the next batch for a LITTLE more flavor. Please note, the coarse sugar should be MANDATORY not "optional"...it really made these muffins in my opinion!"

catpoe728 rated and reviewed the recipe Halloween Cookie Pizza

"Made this for a recent Halloween party and thought it was YUMMY! Loved the peanut butter and the mixture of flavors...would even consider adding chocolate chips and chopped peanuts as well! Will def make again..."
