Easy Garlic Escargots
Best escargots I've ever tasted! Made some changes. I prepared this as an entree for my husband and me. The can said 12 escargots but there were actually 15. I used 10 "stuffing mushrooms" (large) and put 2 escargots in the largest ones. Had to use a larger baking dish. Increased the garlic to about 4 cloves (we LOVE garlic!) and the white wine and heavy cream to 1/2 cup each. Also increased the tarragon to 1/2 teaspoon. Removed the mushroom caps to the baking dish before adding the cream mixture to the escargots in the pan and sprinkled a little kosher salt over it. Didn't measure the Parmesan, just sprinkled over the entire dish before baking. Baked for 15 minutes and browned lightly under the broiler. The wine was chardonnay. This is heaven in a dish! Don't know how it would have been as leftovers as we had none!! You won't regret trying this one!

Appalachian Slaw
I'm not much of a coleslaw-type person, but this sounded good so I tried it...and I'm so very glad I did! I seeded the cucumber (used 1 whole) and the tomato; used a purple onion and bagged mix that had a small amount of carrots & purple cabbage (also added quite a lot more mayo than called for). This made a very colorful mix! I also don't like sweet slaws, so I tasted before I added the sugar, then tasted again after adding the sugar. It wasn't sweeter but it was definitely better! All in all, a great recipe and one I will make regularly!

Cheesiest Potato Soup
I was spoiled by the recipe for Baked Potato Soup I from this site! Therefore, I was extremely disappointed by this recipe. Even with the heavy cream and all that cheese, it's still not thick & creamy & smooth the way that I had hoped. We'll be sticking with the other recipe; won't make this one again.
