I truely would love to see this site get back to what it was/is. Lots of recipes/helpful hints with added comments to help each other out. Times are very hard for so many. A time when we need to pull together. I come in here everyday. Sometimes I leave posts, so often I get great twists on posted recipes, and other times.... Can't we all just get along (before SS takes this away). There was a site on AOL years back (may still be there...if AOL is..lol) anyhoo, was just like this one. I love it here because so many have great ideas making it a wonderful way to brainstorm!

I was just wondering how large is a serving? The list tells me calories but not serving size! And how many servings does it make? But I read comments first and to tell you the truth sounds like this is more of a place to be verbally not nice... thought it was to be a place to comment on the receipe and such as that?

Looks very yummy. Hubby does not like ham, do you think chicken or turkey would work in this recipe instead?

I can't see why this wouldn't work with whatever meat your family likes be it chicken, turkey, pork loin roast, roast beef, etc.

I agree with firecracker1954, you don't have to leave a comment on every single submission. I like to see things funny but not at someone elses expense.

You did, Debbie. Thanks for the chuckle to and to the others, too. It was a tough week-end for me, thus my snarling. Sometimes I have no one to vent to; this week-end was one of those time. Sorry if I offended some.

I think it is time that the back-and-forth sniping at each other stops. I feel like Rodney King some days...Can't we all get along? I have to disagree that any of these posters think their words are gospel and more than once I have seen advice to make a recipe your own. I am sorry you are having a bad day...really. I have to agree that the healthified jokes are getting old, but people are trying to be amusing...I think. If you had strong negative feedback about what you thought were positive comments, then you know how different people have different perspectives and how nobody likes to be humiliated verbally. If you don't like it, please don't do it to others. I can see how you might have posted this in a moment of frustration, but I think it would be better if you didn't repeat it as a premeditated act. It drives people from the site and leaves me feeling less good. Of course, you are welcome to do as you please. That is the nature of the site. I sure would like it if this place were more civil in the future.

I've got to say not only for myself but for the many others that feel your comments are like fingernails on a blackboard, "that there are 3 of you (and look...you're all here) that really think you're OPINION is FACT and we couldn't make it through the day with-out following it to the letter". You're all a piece of work!! Kind of like a bad accident, it makes you sick to your stomach but you can't take your eyes off it!!! And to one of you, to throw your own words right back at you... "BLESS YOUR HEART"!!! You elderly gals really crack me up and from comments you've made in the past, I'm your age but thank heavens I don't act as old and narrow minded...Don't know that there will be many of you that will see this post (since it's Sunday and not many people come back to check these out)...so more than likely, I'll be posting this again when the cackling hens are all 3 at it again! PS..before anyone gets up in arms, this is mild from comments that they have directed towards me in the past (at positve comments I've made). Guess I got tired of turing the other cheek and seeing yet again them standing on their soap boxes! ;o)

Are you surprised CARRIEERIC and BRINGATORCH, you said something negative about the "Healthified" word! How dare you say something that might offend someone! I'm sure it wasn't SS, but someone using the abuse button, or not.........

Oh yummy!!!! I use the huge ham steaks for this. I add fresh brocoli into it. I have always used a white sauce...I will try it with the mayo.
Instead of bell pepper I use a roasted chopped green chile.

Healthified even spell check does not even know what Healthified means, is this going to be the way we speak now, is this like cookie monster not being able to eat cookies, but he has to eat in moderation? I understand eating healthy, but why do we need to change stuff so much.. This sounds good but why don't they use the word reduce, instead.

StartSampling can not change the name since the recipe is coming from a different site. They have to use the name as is.

Healthified is just a word. It is the name of the recipe and I don't think SS is going to change the name of the recipe just to suit peoples needs, likes, dislikes. So either deal with the name HEALTHIFIED or just move on!

I think it sounds good, comfort food to me. But if I am looking for comfort I'm going to throw caution to the wind and use all regular products, save the low/no fats stuff for when I'm in a "Healthifying" mood!
