This is by far the best mac and cheese I have ever eaten. I loved it and, more importantly, so did my whole family of picky eaters. I was nervous with the inclusion of cottage cheese, but the recipe is perfect as it is. I didn't change anything the first time I made it. The second time I made some changes to make it a bit more diet friendly. I simply substituted the lower fat versions of everything (low fat, NOT non-fat because then it is gross) and it was still delicious. I have to be careful to get enough protein and between the Barilla Plus pasta I used and the cottage cheese and other cheeses, this is a great dinner! Lots of protein and really not too much fat, with the substitutions. Any way you make it, this is delicious.!

This is the BEST sugar cookie recipe I have ever made. I normally don't like sugar cookies and don't bother to make them. But I really wanted to have some rolled cookies for my new halloween cookie cutters. This recipe was perfect for that. So easy!! And I normally struggle with rolling cookies. This is delicious even plain (without rolling, etc.) I did follow the advice of others and upped the vanilla, and I also swapped out a cup of the sugar for a cup of Splenda and they still were delicious. No one noticed and I got rave reviews. Also, definitely use the parchment paper and use powdered sugar sparingly to help roll it out. That saved me a ton of headache - amazing recipe! Thanks!!

This is a great recipe for pork chops. I am somewhat picky about the way I like pork chops and before this, the recipes I would actually use for pork chops was around four - any other way and I didn't like them. My recipe number is now five. This is a deceptively simple recipe. It is simple and only has a few ingredients and a few directions, but the result is simple and delicious. This is a huge hit around my house and I get requests for the recipe often. This recipe is good for regular dinner rotation as well as a recipe for company. I highly recommend it.
