Loved it, classic french style, simply prepared with a flavor packed jus. One change I made was to brown the chicken breast in a non-stick pan (and then finish cooking by popping it into the oven) before making the sauce to build extra flavor.

Baked potatoes with all the trimmings, cheese, bacon, sour cream and turned into a hearty soup. YumO!

This crowd-pleasing, kicked-up casserole uses pantry ingredients and refrigerator staples topped with a refrigerated pie crust and baked until the filling is bubbling and the crust is golden.

Super easy to make, and it tastes delicious. A perfect one-pan meal on a busy week day!

There are ground pecans in the shell, there are chopped pecans in the maple-brown sugar filling, and there are maple candied pecans arranged on top. The sweetness comes from both dark brown sugar and maple syrup, and there are some chopped dried cherries and rum added into the filling as well. A classic pecan pie is twisted with a modern way to make it more delicious and appealing, and everyone will give you a big "wow".

My Chinese-American version of crispy fried chicken nuggets tossed in a savory citrus sauce with a touch of heat. Great served over hot rice.

I used to live near Half Moon Bay and remember the Pumpkin Festival well. This recipe does a fitting tribute to the place and the fruits of the harvest. Yum...I'm smelling the loaves bake as I write... My personal preference is to decrease the oil and sugar slightly, but others will enjoy the richness and sweetness as is.

Classic and easy to prepare old fashioned baked macaroni and cheese baked until bubbly with a crispy top.

Much better than classic Macaroni and Cheese. This version still has lots of cheesy flavor but is baked with juicy tomatoes and lots of mushrooms. Serve with a simple salad and make with whole wheat macaroni for a serious boost to the health value that's packed with flavor. A great family casserole.

This scrumptious dish has pasta shells stuffed with spinach and ricotta and mozzarella cheese.

An easy breakfast casserole.
