KEEPER Jeepers, Creepers - Thanks for all the keepers! :) I made this dip (halved the recipe) for a cookout yesteday and let me tell you, it really is amazing. I did use freshly baked chicken instead of canned and I agree that's it a better option. Canned chicken always reminds me of tuna. I...

YUMMY This really does sound like an amazing sauce recipe. I've tried so many commercial and homemade sauces over the years. The best commercial sauce I have found is Hunts. I've made some of the recipes suggested by Rachael Ray, Paula Deen, Emeril, and others and they are just not that great...

Pistachio Crunch 2 cups shelled pistachios 1 cup granulated sugar 1/2 cup water 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Roast pistachios in 300°F oven for 10 minutes. Cool. Mix sugar, water and cinnamon. Cook and stir over medium-high heat until sugar dissolves and...

Lasagna I didn't catch the lasagna episode but I do like Tyler and his show. I just had lasagna at Olive Garden yesterday. It was just so-so. For an Italian restaurant, they don't have the best sauce. I have found local places that have much more to offer than national chains. I actually prefer...

Fish Sausage I am sure that you can use sausage casings to contain the product however I don't think fish sausage would keep for too long. This was the only recipe that I found of its type but I am sure that a good search engine (google, lycos, etc.) may have more recipes and more ideas.

ROTEL Yes, Rotel is a brand name. I am sure that any kind of tomato (diced or stewed or whatever) would substitute well in this dish. The Rotel product that I had was pretty spicy but again you can doctor up your own product if need be. This was a good casserole ... very filling.

www.justvegetablerecipes.com I hope you all like this vegetable site as much as I do!

Ohio I am in Cleveland. I see there are quite a few Ohio people here... where are you? Nice to meet you.

Alix, I have made this a few times and it was great. I'd recommend trying it again because it really is a good recipe. Was it that you didn't like the taste or did it not come out as directed?

Dina, also consider looking at the websites of other sugar substitutes like Equal and Sweet-N-Low. They should be interchangeable.

By saying the doneness is different in the middle of the roast, was he by chance cooking over a (pardon my spelling) rotisserie?

How Funny... I just accessed this topic thinking maybe, just maybe, I would find a breakfast casserole recipe. This is very ironic that it was the first recipe when I opened up the category. This is a Twilight Zone kind of thing!

Attn: RAINEE This looks great! Thank you.
