Idaho Potato Cake
Moist and delicious. A great afternoon snacking-style cake. If I was serving this to guests, I would add four ounces of melted and cooled unsweetened chocolate at the same time as the potatoes, frost with a nice, fluffy chocolate frosting, and serve with a scoop of high-quality vanilla ice cream. Thanks for the recipe!

Strawberry Torte
Very good, but I thought it needed a greater proportion of lady fingers to cream filling to be balanced. I lined my pan with ladyfingers and put a middle layer of strawberries and ladyfingers as other posters suggested, but it still felt like too much "creamy" in every bite. Next time I make this I will make this a four layer dessert, with ladyfingers on the bottom and another three layers of cream and ladyfingers. Be sure to serve very cold; this dessert "melts" quickly. Good flavor and presentation.

Italian Sausage Soup with Tortellini
Very good and easy to substitute ingredients if you're missing something. I also cut a few minutes off the cooking time and it was still excellent.
