Um…where to start….This is the lowest on our list of favorites.  NOT a hit with us.  We do not want to have this again.  I would say that the main issue is that the rice seemed a bit soggy.  It smelled good.  The meat tasted good, but the texture was too mushy for our liking.  [...] Read more »

Nick chanted/shouted/yelled for joy, “Lasagna!  Lasagna!  Mom, is that Lasagna!?”   Apparently, it is his favorite food!  What a wonderful way to start dinner!  Again, I was the “best chef in the world.”  Penny ate 2 heaping helpings.  Dutch always loves lasagna too….so this was going to be a hit the second we wrote it on [...] Read more »

Yum!  The meatloaf was very delicious.  My entire family loved it.  I skipped the BBQ sauce on top that the recipe called for and went for a more traditional ketchup topping.  Both of my kids loved it!  Nick told me that I was the best chef ever…his best compliment he gives when he loves dinner.  [...] Read more »

I loved it!!!  I had to take Nick to swimming lessons, so I left dinner ready in the oven for Dutch and Penny.  Nick and I ate after we got home.  Before I took a bite, I asked Dutch and Penny (who had already moved on to the  Wii…Sports Resort…fun!) how dinner went.  I got [...] Read more »

This meal is pretty good.  If you like baked potatoes, hamburger, and cheese, you’ll love it.  However, even though we have eaten this before, my kids gave me some problems with this one.  Nick said it looked gross and didn’t want it.  Then he asked me if it was “Army Food.”  Army Food is what [...] Read more »

Ugh!  We only had the pork tenderloin with apples and mushrooms leftover.  And since I have already posted that I don’t like pork….chances weren’t great that I would like it as a leftover!  No one else complained, so apparently it was fine.  However, I ate about half of my meal, then scraped it into the [...] Read more »

Well, this just isn’t fair.  This is my mom’s recipe and potato soup is my FAVORITE soup!  So…you guessed it….I loved it.  Dutch ate 3 bowls….and now I don’t have any leftovers for Leftover Day.  Penny said it was very good, and that she would like to have it again.  Obviously, my family has had [...] Read more »

First of all, I need to preface the review by stating that pork cooked like this in not one of my favorites.  We love ham and bacon, but pork tenderloins and porkchops (those types of pork) are not my favorite…therefore, I rarely cook it.  So, my family is not used to eating it.  With that [...] Read more »
