I’m 33, stay at home/housewife. I live with my boyfriend. I’ve got two wonderful kids, but I don’t raise them. They’re being raised by my parents. I’m ADD/ADHD and Bipolar. I’ve recently moved a month ago from my hometown to the big city of Little Rock, Arkansas. I’ve got the best companion other than my boyfriend, my dog Isabella. I’d go insane every day if I didn’t have her. She’s one thing that keeps me going other than what needs to be done around the house.

It turned out good but the only thing that I don’t like is the cherries as to I’m not very fond of them. If you don’t like cherries I would leave them out of the recipe. The coconut my boyfriend said he doesn’t like but I couldn’t taste the coconut. He’s the one who saw the recipe online and said he wanted to try it so he bought the ingredients and I made it for him. I’ve never been the kind of person to bake anything but this I had to give it a shot. I love banana nut bread but I’ve never had it like this one before. But also I’ve never heard of Hawaiian Banana Nut Bread either.

I made it but it didn’t turn out right as to it was still somewhat soupy in the middle. Tasted good but wasn’t right. One thing I wouldn’t put in it is the flour. I talked to my grandmother and she said she doesn’t put flour in hers. I also talked to my aunt and she told me that she follows the recipe that’s on the can of the pumpkin puree

I’ve made this before and I don’t like the grease in the hamburger so I drain the grease off. Then I mix all the ingredients together in a bigger pot. I add a bay leaf in my chili like my dad does his.

Omg this stuff is good. Looks too good to eat. I rarely eat fruit but this is going to go quickly.

I made this tonight for supper. I obviously didn’t pay close attention to the directions as to I had a lot of things going through my mind while preparing it. I’m the type of person who has to recheck it before it’s correct. Anyways I misunderstood where it said to put a layer of sauce on top of the noodles at the bottom. Oh well. It turned out really good and my boyfriend likes it so I did good. I think next time I make it I need to add a little more of the cream cheese but other than that it’s really good.

Made it for New Years but I also wanted to use my cast iron skillet I got for Christmas from my granny. I didn’t hear the timer go off on the stove because I was sitting here in the living room with the tv on so it cooked a little bit longer than I had planned.

I wanted to do something different so I tried this. They still feel a little hard like they’re not cooked. Maybe next time I try it I’ll need to put a little bit of water in the pan instead of oil. There was one ingredient that I didn’t have so I just used the others. Any suggestions for this would be great.

I made it but didn’t have any maple syrup so instead I used the butter and milk as follows but added sugar and cinnamon.

Mine is in the oven as I write my review. I accidentally put the cheese on it before putting it in the oven. And I didn’t have the right amount of enchiladas sauce so I used two 10 ounce cans. I couldn’t find any of the frozen Mexican style corn at Walmart or Kroger so I put celery in mine. ????? I wished I’d grabbed a green pepper while at Walmart too but didn’t think about it. Didn’t have it on my list.
