Chicken Potato Bake
OK-so I changed this recipe a bit. I coated the chicken with mayo and then dipped in Italian bread crumbs. I then took the Italian dressing and seasoning and drizzled over entire dish, along with the parmesan cheese. I made a big mistake by adding raw green beans and baby red potatoes (I thought that covering the dish for a half hour would help cook them faster-I was wrong). Both came out only partially cooked. Next time I will boil for a few minutes before sticking in oven. The chicken came out great and so did the green beans and potatoes after a little more heating in the micro.

Hot Artichoke and Spinach Dip II
This is a great recipe, hands down one of the best Spinach Artichoke dips I ever ate. I made some adjustments along the way: I used mayo and sour cream (about a cup and a quarter of the combo...more mayo than sour cream), extra cheese within the recipe (I only added a little bit on top), I used a heavy hand when adding the garlic powder, and I only used a small amount of minced garlic. I used an entire 10oz frozen package of spinach. I did not use any other spices, not even salt. It comes out creamy and delicious!

Italian Style Meatloaf I
My husband told me that this was the best meatloaf he ever ate. Score! I changed a little bit of the recipe. First, I used Italian bread crumbs. I used a 6 cheese marinara instead of ketchup. I couldn't find my Italian blend spice, but I figured the bread crumbs would help with that. I used garlic powder instead of garlic salt. Once I had everything mixed in and pressed into the baking dish, I covered the top with more marinara sauce. About a half hour before it was done, I topped with more Mozzarella cheese. It turned out great! Next time, I will transfer from the baking dish to a serving plate so it doesn't look so bad. There was a ton of grease from the meat and cheese sitting on all sides of the baking dish. To finish off my meal, I made wide noodles with butter and parmesan.I warmed more marinara sauce to top it all. With a side of french cut green beans, this meal was top-notch without breaking the bank or the back!
