Chicken Tikka Masala
Used a total of 1 tsp salt. Cut cayenne to 1/2 tsp and used 1/8th of a jalapeno--still spicy enough for me and my husband and a little spicier than my toddlers prefer. This is the closest we have come to replicating restaurant-style Indian food.

Belgian Waffles
I think anyone disappointed in the texture of these waffles was not looking for a true Belgian waffle recipe. These are just wonderful.

Lime Gelatin Salad
I really can't believe this recipe doesn't have more reviews! It is one of the best Jell-o salad recipes I have tried--perfect to bring to a family or church gathering. It's simple to make and pleases everyone. It only needs to chill for about 15 minutes before adding the whipped topping. I used a small can of mandarin oranges and more crushed pineapple because that's what I had on hand. This recipe is going into the entertaining file!
