grjen3 rated and reviewed the recipe Black Bean and Salsa Noodle Soup

"I made this as listed using medium salsa, ditali pasta, and no cilantro (didn't have any). It is delicious and warming for a cold day. Easy and quick to make."

grjen3 rated and reviewed the recipe Smoky Sausage Penne

"This recipe did not have enough pasta so I ended up using the whole box of penne. I used cubed smoked mozzarella because that is what I had on hand. Added some spicy cheddar on top. It was good and something different. Will make again."

grjen3 rated and reviewed the recipe Cheesy Chicken Enchiladas

"I made this but used 6 flour fajita tortillas and shredded habanero cheese. It was delicious with just the right amount of heat. I found the Progresso soup at Kroger. It was very easy and will definitely make again."

grjen3 rated and reviewed the recipe Cheese-Garlic Biscuits

"I thought these were easy and delicious. I mixed the garlic powder and butter into the dough although butter brushed on top would have been better. "

grjen3 rated and reviewed the recipe Beefy Nacho Soup

"I made this recipe as written with the following changes: added whole packet of taco seasoning, can of drained corn, and can of drained and rinsed kidney beans. It was heartier this way. I think if you used half the milk it would make a nice, thick nacho dip."

grjen3 rated and reviewed the recipe Parmesan Orzo and Meatballs

"I made this as listed except added a can of chipotle diced tomatoes instead of a fresh tomato. This gave it a different flavor. I think I would use the Italian seasoned diced tomatoes next time. I thought this was good and easy to make but my fiance didn't like it as well."

grjen3 rated and reviewed the recipe Chocolate Chip Swirl Cake

"I will definitely make this cake again. It was delicious and moist. I made it exactly as written except I sprinkled the chips on top of the cake instead of mixing them in the frosting (to make frosting easier) and I didn't put chocolate syrup on top but I think it would be good that way. I got many compliments."

"I made this as directed. My boyfriend ate it as a chip dip but has said he wasn't impressed."

grjen3 rated and reviewed the recipe Smoky Mac 'n Cheese

"I substituted half-and-half for the whipping cream to decrease the fat. I used shredded habanero cheddar cheese and topped it with more cheese instead of bread crumbs. I thought this was good but I wish I could find petite diced fire roasted tomatoes because I don't like big chunks."

grjen3 rated and reviewed the recipe Asian Meatball and Rice Toss

"I made this with the Kraft dressing and left out the carrots, peanuts, and onions. I added some Teriyaki marinade and Plum sauce and topped servings with Chow Mein noodles. I thought this was delicious and simple. The noodles gave a nice crunch and the meatballs were great (I halved them but might quarter them next time). "

grjen3 rated and reviewed the recipe Three-Pepper Pasta

"I made this using large chunks of peppers instead of strips because I thought it would be easier to eat. When completed, I combined the sauce and pasta so it could be taken to work. It was good but the past absorbed some of the sauce and extra was needed. The peppers added a nice sweetness."

grjen3 rated and reviewed the recipe Nacho Chicken Casserole

"I made this as listed except I used canned shredded chicken, diced tomatoes with green chiles (so I left out the can of chiles) and I didn't put the tortilla chips on top. We thought it was good as a chip dip but I don't think it had enough substance for an entree. I will make this again as a chip dip."

grjen3 rated and reviewed the recipe Pizza Biscuit Bake

"This was good but next time I would bake it in 2 8X8 pans so that the middle will cook completely. I accidentally used about 20 oz of pizza sauce and that was pretty good. It's great that you can use whatever pizza toppings you like."

grjen3 rated and reviewed the recipe Beefy Nacho Soup

"I liked the flavor of this soup but I think it needed more texture. Next time I will add beans and corn. I ate my soup with broken tortilla chips and my boyfriend ate his as a nacho dip."

grjen3 rated and reviewed the recipe Easy Snickerdoodles

"Very good. I thought I made small cookies (2 bites) but only got 3 dozen. Will definitely make again. Always have the ingredients on hand which is great."

"Very good. A hit with all mint/chocolate lovers."

grjen3 rated and reviewed the recipe Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff

"This is delicious and easy. I leave out the cream cheese and just stir in the sour cream at the end. It is great served over Amish egg noodles. I used one can of cream of mushroom soup and one can of cream of mushroom with roasted garlic. "

grjen3 rated and reviewed the recipe Light and Creamy Chicken Enchiladas

"I made this last night. I thought it might be a little bland so I used habanero cheddar cheese instead of regular. It was really good and creamy. I will definitely make again. "

grjen3 rated and reviewed the recipe Slow Cooker Beef Stroganoff

"Made this for dinner tonight and it was great. I left out the cream cheese because I thought the sour cream would add enough creaminess. I also cooked it for 4 hours on high because I didn't have 8 hours. I thought it was delicious and I will definitely make this again. "
