PunkyB rated and reviewed the recipe Slow Cooker Bourbon Chicken

"This recipe somehow fell flat. Not sure what could be done to make it taste better... it was just greatly lacking the flavor that I expected it to have after smelling the wonderful aroma it created while it was cooking. Nobody in my family particularly cared for it. It wasn't horrible, there just wasn't anything memorable about it. Definitely not worth wasting 1/2 cup of bourbon on or the 5-6 hours cooking time so unfortunately it won't be a keeper."

"Great meal! These are the tweaks I made to make the recipe to my family's liking: I added some Italian seasoning while sauteing the chicken, it helped to give it a little more flavor. I also added a small onion with a few extra cloves of garlic to the chicken/garlic as well. One other addition I made was putting matchstick carrots in with the zucchini and tomatoes. Do to lactose-intolerance in the family, I left out the Parmesan cheese, and it really wasn't missed although I think it would taste wonderful with it as well. The family loved it and it is a keeper!

PunkyB rated and reviewed the recipe Beef Burgundy

"What a simple yet delicious recipe!!! I pretty much followed the recipe but I did double the sauce (2 cans of soup and 1/2 cup of wine) as I had increased the amount of meat some to feed more people. My family thought I slaved away for hours to make such savory meal. This is definitely a keeper and is a great one to have on hand when you need to put something together for unexpected guests that you want to impress!"

PunkyB rated and reviewed the recipe Ground Beef Risotto

"My family loves this recipe. I modify it a little bit. I usually add twice as many carrots as recipe states and I always add other veggies in as well (zucchini, asparagus, broccoli, peas). I also serve the Parmesan cheese on the side for those who want we have milk intolerance in family. It is good with it, it is also good without it, especially with extra veggies to add flavor. A nice change for serving hamburger!"

PunkyB rated and reviewed the recipe Southwest Chicken Skillet

"This was a very simple recipe that tasted great! I used fresh veggies rather than frozen, substituted celery for onion, omitted mushrooms (my kids don't like them) and since fresh corn is in season, I cut up an ear of that and added it in (ended up being about a cup of corn). I also sauteed the chicken in some fresh garlic and fresh celery leaf which gave it a very yummy flavor. Like others, I opted for chips instead of the tortilla. Also, due to milk allergies, I didn't use cheese but it still was very flavorful. Definitely a keeper!"
