Three-Cheese Baked Penne recipe Cooking Light, May 2008 I really thought there should be more sauce to this recipe. I cooked the pasta al dente per the notes, but there really wasn’t a lot of liquid for them to continue cooking in. I would add more sauce…
Skillet Chicken Souvlaki
Skillet Chicken Souvlaki recipe Cooking Light, August 2009 Using my experience with the chicken, peppers and cashews recipe, I butterflied the breasts and then thinly sliced them. Worked like a charm! There weren’t huge slices of chicken in the recipe. The chicken was a little bland. I would…
Chicken, Cashew, and Red Pepper Stir-Fry
Chicken Cashew and Red Pepper Stir-Fry recipe Cooking Light, April 2009 You need to slice the chicken thinner than I did. I thinly sliced it, but I should have butterflied the breast before thinly slicing it. They came out to be rather large pieces of chicken in the…
Pork Chops Marsala
Pork Chops Marsala recipe Cooking Light, April 2007 We had some really thick pork chops, so I split them in half for more portion control and to speed up the cooking time for the chops. I started the mashed potatoes, then the eggplant, then went to work…
Salmon with Mustard Cream
Salmon with Mustard Cream recipe Cooking Light Superfast Suppers, Oxmoor House, January 2003 CTM made the sauce before I got home. I tasted it. It didn’t really have a lot of mustard flavor to it, so I added probably another tablespoon or so of Dijon. Then I…
Spicy Asian Noodles with Chicken
Spicy Asian Noodles with Chicken recipe Cooking Light, March 2009 Rice noodles are really messy. When you’re trying to break them apart, they fly all over the counter. Do not believe the directions on the package as to how to “cook” them. Mine said to soak in warm…
Roasted Paprika Chicken
Roasted Paprika Chicken recipe Southern Living, November 2007 So, I’ve made this twice and apparently haven’t blogged about it once. We have a convection oven with a rotisserie spit, so I usually make this in that oven instead of roasting it in the regular oven. It’s a lot…
Chicken Stuffed with Goat Cheese and Garlic
Chicken Stuffed with Goat Cheese and Garlic recipe Cooking Light, September 2003 I don’t know about this one. It was okay. The goat cheese kind of curdled in the sauce and I did have it at a simmer, not a boil. I used a log of President goat…
Sautéed Sole with Browned Butter and Capers
Sautéed Sole with Browned Butter recipe Cooking Light, August 2009 YUM! O M G this was delicious! It will definitely be on the make again list. We don’t have butter, so I used ICBNB and it turned out just fine. The “butter” browned just like regular butter…
Vietnamese-Spiced Pork Chops
Vietnamese-Spiced Pork Chops recipe Cooking Light, OCTOBER 2003 For some reason, I didn’t really taste the spices all that much. I thought with all that chile flake it would at least have some spiciness to it, but no. Scoring the chops means they cook faster than normal….
Chipotle Meat Loaf
Chipotle Meat Loaf recipe Cooking Light, DECEMBER 2005 So, it just tasted like spicy meatloaf. Meh. I didn’t like the chili sauce in the glaze. I would have thought salsa with some ketchup to thicken it, but no. It was tomato sauce with chili sauce added. I really…
Linguine with Clam Sauce
Linguine with Clam Sauce recipe Cooking Light, November 2001 This was a much better recipe than one I’ve tried before. It’s the bacon…and the clams. This time I bought Bumble Bee chopped clams. They were tender and tasty and weren’t rubber the next day for lunch. Yes,…
Smoked Paprika Pork Chops with Bell Pepper and Corn Relish
Smoked Paprika Pork Chops recipe Cooking Light, April 2005 This was pretty good and easy. I didn’t use canned corn because I already had frozen corn and thought I would just use it up. Being as we didn’t have anything else with it, we ate most of the…
Grilled Pepper Onion and Sausage Calzones
Grilled Pepper, Onion, and Sausage Calzones Cooking Light, July 2009 I made the pizza dough recipe I already posted and put half in the freezer for this recipe. I didn’t grill the sausage or the vegetables. I don’t think we have enough gas to grill much of anything…
Barbecue Chicken with Mustard Glaze
Barbecue Chicken with Mustard Glaze recipe Cooking Light, July 2009 We had this tonight for dinner. It was quick to prep and we roasted them in the oven instead of a grill pan or on the grill. We really do need more gas for our grill. Anyway, I…
Broiled Salmon with Peppercorn-Lime Rub
Broiled Salmon with Peppercorn-Lime Rub recipe Cooking Light, May 2009 So, this is the second recipe where you just sprinkle the stuff on top and bake or broil the fish. I don’t really like this method. It needs to have some olive oil added to it to make…
Quick Taco Salad
Quick Taco Salad recipe Cooking Light, October 1999 Yes, it was quick. For some reason, I hadn’t really planned on making more than the recipe called for, but when I started putting the ingredients together, it didn’t look like enough for left overs. So, I didn’t have enough…
Pepperoni Pizza
Pepperoni Pizza Cooking Light, September 2006 This was a comedy of errors, except I wasn’t really laughing. I didn’t made the pizza dough this recipe called for. I made the one posted on here from the July 2009 issue. That wasn’t the comedy part… I must have been…
Tilapia with Sherry-Mushroom Sauce
Tilapia with Sherry-Mushroom Sauce recipe Cooking Light, January 1999 So, to finish up the flounder we have in the freezer, I made this with it instead of tilapia. I had to cut the recipe down as I was only going to make one portion. Due to the new…
Bow Ties with Tomatoes, Feta, and Balsamic Dressing
Bow Ties with Tomatoes recipe Cooking Light, July 2009 My farfalle fell apart. And no, I didn’t overcook it. It fell apart even though I made it a little more al dente than usual. The last time I made farfalle it shredded to pieces, so I was trying…
Sole with Tarragon-Butter Sauce
Sole with Tarragon-Butter Sauce recipe Cooking Light, January 2007 Again, we used flounder. There wound up not being a lot of “sauce” when we were done. Watch it carefully, as it took less time to reduce than in the instructions. We didn’t use white wine, but it would…
Chicken-Orzo Salad with Goat Cheese
Chicken-Orzo Salad with Goat Cheese recipe Cooking Light, April 2008 So, goat cheese was WAY too expensive. We used RF feta instead. It was light. It was easy. It was filling. It was pretty good for lunch the next day, too. We didn’t serve it with pita bread,…
Pork Chops Stuffed with Feta and Spinach
Pork Chops Stuffed with Feta and Spinach recipe Cooking Light, April 2007 Yum. These were…YUM! We didn’t broil them. We pan fried them. Every time we use the broiler, the fire alarm goes off, so I try not to use it all that much. The filling was very…
Lemon Sole with Lemon-Caper Sauce
Lemon Sole with Lemon-Caper Sauce recipe Cooking Light, May 2006 It was lemony. It was capery. It was interesting. It took longer than 3 minutes for the sauce to thicken. We used flounder instead of sole, which cooked very quickly. It might taste better with white wine instead…
Greek Steak Pitas
Greek Steak Pitas recipe Cooking Light, June 2009 So, I forgot to buy spinach. Maybe it was a subconscious thing as I’m not too fond of sauteed fresh spinach. We used london broil instead of flank steak. I tried to cut it supah thin so it wouldn’t be…
Parmesan Herb Baked Flounder
Parmesan Herb Baked Flounder recipe Cooking Light, JANUARY 2004 Yeah, not so much. Either there wasn’t enough mayo or there wasn’t the right kind of parm, but the mayo that you “spread” on the fish wasn’t spreadable. It was a paste. So, I added more mayo. It tasted…
Spanish-Style Shrimp with Garlic
Spanish-Style Shrimp with Garlic recipe Cooking Light, MARCH 2006 These were really good!!! I think they could be a good appetizer, but CTM didn’t agree. I also thought the garlic was going to burn, but I constantly stirred the pan and it sort of toasted instead of burned….
Grilled Flank Steak with Tomato, Avocado, and Cucumber Salad
Grilled Flank Steak with Tomato, Avocado, and Cucumber Salad recipe Cooking Light, May 2007 This was simple and tasty. We had it last night and I roasted some zucchini to go with the meal. We used london broil instead of flank steak as it’s cheaper. I juiced about…
Dry-Rub Chicken with Honey Barbecue Sauce
Dry-Rub Chicken with Honey Barbecue Sauce recipe Cooking Light, MAY 2004 YUM! These were deliscious and we’ve had them twice!! CTM really liked the barbecue sauce, which I doctored a little bit. I added about 1/4 cup of Cattleman’s barbecue sauce to the mix because it just didn’t…
Italian Herbed Shrimp Kebabs
Italian Herbed Shrimp Kebabs recipe Cooking Light, JULY 2008 For some reason, I couldn’t find fresh basil. Go figure. So, I used a jarred pesto sauce instead and omitted the olive oil from the recipe. They were pretty good. I think I used too much of the pesto…
Chicken Thighs with Olives and Tomato Sauce
Chicken Thighs with Olives and Tomato Sauce recipe Cooking Light, March 2009 Yet again, I just CANNOT bring myself to shell out $4 for a jar of loves, so I used jumbo California olives. You couldn’t really taste them. I’m sure if you used kalamata or oil cured…
Chipotle Sloppy Joes
Chipotle Sloppy Joes recipe Cooking Light, April 2009 O M G these were FABULOUS! Since you only use one chili out of the can, you can make several batches of these. I put the rest of the chilis in the freezer for later use. One wasn’t too spicy…
Stir-Fried Shrimp with Garlic and Chile Sauce
Stir-Fried Shrimp with Garlic and Chile Sauce recipe Cooking Light, January 2009 This was REALLY quick to make. I started the garlic ginger rice in the rice cooker when I got home and then headed to the fitness center. When I got home, the rice was finished and…

Rotini with Chicken, Asparagus, and Tomatoes
Rotini with Chicken, Asparagus, and Tomatoes Cooking Light, NOVEMBER 2007 NO! I didn’t use aspagusting!! We omitted it from the recipe ENTIRELY! This was really good and really easy to prepare. However, I would marinate the chicken breasts before cooking. They were a little on the bland side….
Chicken Kiev
Chicken Kiev Cooking Light, JANUARY 2007 I’ve made this before. Now matter how hard I try, the butter NEVER stays in the chicken. It’s supposed to. I used a roasting pan with a rack, thinking it would help them be crispier. Don’t use fresh bread. I coated two…
Crispy Salmon Cakes with Lemon-Caper Mayonnaise
Crispy Salmon Cakes with Lemon-Caper Mayonnaise Cooking Light, APRIL 2001 Since the last time I tried to make salmon cakes, I hercked when I had to pull the bones and skin out, I decided to get the stuff in the pouch. I didn’t really drain it all that…
Mini Turkey Burgers with Gorgonzola
Mini Turkey Burgers with Gorgonzola Cooking Light, NOVEMBER 2006 These were pretty good!! The gorgonzola melted out of some of the burgers though. I tried to use the smallest of the crumbles knowing that would happen. We put them on Martin’s new whole wheat potato rolls. Man those…

Sausage and Peppers Cooking Light, JANUARY 2003 Yes, that’s exactly what it was…sausage and peppers. We used the Shady Brook Farms hot Italian sausage. YUM! There’s not enough sauce, or the sauce we used was too thick. It was rather filling with all the peppers in it. I…
Broccoli and Chicken Stir-Fried Rice

Balsamic Pork Chops
Balsamic Pork Chops Southern Living, OCTOBER 2001 These were quite good and easy to make. I think the sauce could have used some onion for an extra layer of flavor, though, and just a little more vinegar and less broth. The sauce didn’t thicken much, but that’s okay….
Yankee Pot Roast
Yankee Pot Roast Cooking Light, OCTOBER 2007 Meh. It’s pot roast. I liked the addition of parsnips to this, but I didn’t do any of the other interesting root veggies. Just onions, potatoes, carrots, and the parsnips. They are REALLY sweet when cooked, if you haven’t…

Mushroom-Sauced Pork Chops

Fettuccine Alfredo
Fettuccine Alfredo Cooking Light, JANUARY 2007 I wasn’t sure about this recipe. I think it needs just a little more Parmesan than called for and maybe a little more milk, though. The sauce was rather thick. Or maybe just a splash of FF half and…
Oven-Roasted Beef Brisket
Oven-Roasted Beef Brisket Tom Perini I can’t tell you how much I LOVE this recipe. I DO NOT serve the sauce, as I think it’s too salty by the time the meat is cooked. By braising the brisket with beef broth, it makes it nice and juicy and…

Pork Chops Italian
Pork Chops Italian Southern Living, JANUARY 2004 Meh. This was more like pork parmesan. It was very tasty, but I think our pork wasn’t too good. It was a little on the tough side. It would have been better probably with scallipini style pork and quick fry it….

Balsamic Rosemary Pork
Balsamic Rosemary Pork Cooking Light, APRIL 2004 This was mighty tasty. I think I would let the sauce cook a little longer to make it more syrupy, but it was excellent none-the-less. Be carefuly not to overcook the pork on the first round. Ours was a little tough…
Champion Chicken Parmesan
Champion Chicken Parmesan Cooking Light, OCTOBER 2000 YUM! I LOVE chicken parm. I used jar sauce because it’s make it THAT much easier to make. However, I do make my own sauce roasting whole, canned tomato ala Alton Brown. I LOVE that recipe!! Anyway, This is mighty tasty…

Swedish Meatballs
Swedish Meatballs recipe Cooking Light, JULY 2006 YUM! These were delicious. I made them with beef instead of chicken because that’s what we had on hand, but they were still FABULOUS! There wasn’t enough sauce to suit my BF, which I agree. For all the meatballs we made,…
