Chili Rellenos Casserole
this was pretty good. after reading pages & pages of reviews, here are the modifications i did: (1) used 9x13 pan. (2) used 27 ounce can of HATCH whole green chiles. cut them down one side, and laid them face up in pan (3) used 4 eggs instead of 2 (4) sprinkled some cumin in the egg mixture (5) used red enchilada sauce instead of the tomato sauce (5) used a colby jack cheese instead of using the two cheeses listed (6) cooked for a full 35 minutes (7) added sauce, cheese & olives and cooked for another 10 minutes (8) i added cooked, shredded chicken in between the two layers of chilies. i will most likely make this again. enjoy!

Chicken Tikka Masala
TOO MUCH SALT! I made this recipe before reading the reviews. the marinade for the chicken asks for 4 teaspoons of salt - this is way, way, way too much. next time, i will only use ONE teaspoon of salt. the sauce asks for 3 teaspoons of salt, which is so over-powering - my sauce was ruined. i ended up having to run to the store for more cream & tomato sauce. the 2nd time around, i sauted the garlic & jalapenos in UNSALTED butter, added all the spices EXCEPT THE SALT, added the cream and added salt-free tomato sauce. only after everything was mixed and cooking down, did i add salt, and i only ended up adding about 1 teaspoon. My sauce was so much better the 2nd time around, with using just a tad bit of salt. I will definitely make this again. It was really good. The leftovers were great. It has just enough heat to make it interesting. The sauce is so good. The marinade made my mouth water. Super great recipe - just be really careful with the salt!

Black Bean and Couscous Salad
Great salad. I doubled everything in the dressing EXCEPT the olive oil. I added chopped jalapeno peppers to give that extra something. I also added a bit more red wine vinegar. This is a great salad. We've added grilled chicken to it - which is awesome as well. Just make sure you rinse your beans really good before adding it to the bowl. If you don't - everything will turn a gray color. Enjoy!
