Cindy Hatch Derrico reviewed Diana71’s Instant Pot Chicken Cacciatore. 03/12/2024
User-submitted image of completed recipe
This dish tastes so delicious! However, it doesn’t taste like chicken cacciatore to me - it has a more French flavor to it. I found that I couldn’t get the broth reduced, I could try with tomato sauce rather than or in addition to tomatoes…? I tried sautéing for awhile after it was finished but couldn’t reduce it. Still, it was good over rice which soaked up the broth nicely. It was really yummy. My daughter and father in law and myself really enjoyed it, but my husband and son said it wasn’t their favorite. If I make it again, it will be fore myself, and I likely will since I think it tastes very good. The herbs give it a really nice flavor. And the chicken came out so tender.

A keeper! Great flavors Easy to follow Worth the effort Crowd-pleaser
One of the reasons I look forward to the holidays every year is because I get to make, eat, and gift some of these great candied pecans. The recipe is super easy - the “work” is the rotating of the pecans every 15 minutes. But it’s worth it! They’re also great on salads, and these taste better than any I’ve had at restaurants. I made some this year for Valentine’s Day gifts. - what you see in the pic is some I kept for us at home. :-) I highly recommend this recipe.

Cindy Hatch Derrico reviewed vjonsson’s Janet's Rich Banana Bread. 02/19/2024
A keeper! Easy to follow Worth the effort Family favorite
This is my favorite banana bread recipe - the sour cream helps make the bread more moist and flavorful. The recipe is easy to put together, delicious to eat - the hardest part is having to wait an hour for it to bake…! My husband and my son don’t like nuts, so I usually make two loaves, one with nuts and one without. I’ve also used this during the holidays as gifts for co-0workers and people really enjoy it!
