Pollo Mediterranean
I used capers instead of olives and added roasted red bell pepper instead of just sun dried tomatoes. Partyly to suit a picky DH and partly because of what was on hand. Also used only half and half since sour cream isn't very Mediterranean. Divine! I'll double the sauce ingredients next time as my husband wished he had more to put on the pasta.

Mashed Chipotle Sweet Potatoes
Fabulous. This was eaten up by even my non-sweet potato eaters and my die-hard sweet potato/marshmallow casserole lovers. I added a bit of maple syrup to give a little more sweetness and flavor and adjusted the amount of chipotles for the small kids in my family.

Dad's Double Whole Grain Pancakes
I’m giving this 5 stars even though I made several modifications. It’s a great recipe! My changes are: 1 1/2 C non-fat buttermilk and 3/4 C water instead of milk powder and water (I actually increased the water even more because my family likes thin pancakes with crisp edges, but for most it would probably be too thin). I also decreased regular flour from 1 C to 1/2C, and then added 1/4C flax seed meal, 1/4C wheat germ. Added about a teaspoon of cinnamon, too. Like other reviewers, I cut way down on the sugar (to slightly less than 1/2 C and also used honey for most of the sweetener). These were excellent pancakes. My husband is usually leery of the taste of “non-traditional” pancakes, but he gave it high praise. And my children gobbled them up. This has become my preferred pancake recipe!
