  1. eating this now...its good! although i do say it could have a little something more. I served this to myself with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Would also be good if cooked with brown sugar as well, maybe some graham cracker crumbs on top too!
     
  2. Wow, nummy! I used a bit of cardamom instead of nutmeg and it was amazing. I think I'll make it again tomorrow and try the nutmeg. Makes an excellent light supper or a healthy dessert. Good one!
     
  3. Very good-better than a canned pear for sure! I made as posted and the only change I would make next time and there will be a next time---is half as much butter. I think the natural juices in the pear could almost cook it thoroughly. The nutmeg was very nice, and cinnamon would be good too. I put it all on a dinner plate-easy peasy to do. Thanks bmcnichol for posting. Made for PRMR tag.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I have two boys Eddie 18 and Brandon 10. I have been with my hubby for 16 years. I work full time outside the home and my boys keep me busy at home. Eddie is a singer and base guitar player in a band and Brandon races go karts. We also have a Collie/Beagle mix named Sugar. I love to cook and try out new recipes. My family likes it too but at times ask my to make just "normal" food, as I forget sometimes to make my own TNT recipes. I cook a lot with with my crock pot as it makes life a lot easier for me. I am always on the look out for new crock pot recipes. I'm not much of a baker as I don't like to measure things. I collect cookbooks and recipes in general. I usually start with a recipe and tweak to my families liking. My Rating System: 5 Stars = The whole family enjoyed the dish and it will be added to my TNT cookbook. Book #220911. These recipes will be made again and again. 4 Stars = Recipe was good, but needed some modifications or it was good but not something we would want on a regular basis. Also goes into my TNT-4 star recipe cookbook. Book #220912 3 Stars = It was edible, but won't be made again. 2 Stars = Needs some kind of major adjustments. 1 Stars = Inedible, didn't work, waste of ingredients.
