Cottage Pie
This is a simple and delicious one-dish meal. It is a great way to get young children to eat their veggies. I substituted ground turkey and added a splash of Worcestershire for extra flavor. For the peas, I used a bag of seasoned frozen peas with mushrooms, which also added a lot of flavor. Added in some carrots for extra vitamins and all set.

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough + Cupcake = The BEST Cupcake. Ever.
I will confess to being something of a cake snob. I never use cake mixes, but today I really wanted to try these cupcakes out and I needed a quick Halloween goodie for a party. I used a chocolate cake mix and refrigerated cookie dough, which happened to be chocolate chunk with peanut butter cups. Delicious! Only froze the dough about 30 mins. It didn't sink to the bottom like in many of the photos, but it also did not melt into the cake so it worked fine. Topped them with vanilla buttercream, and was genuinely surprised at the awesome results! Seriously, people will think you are a genius. No issues with dryness. For the cookie dough, white chocolate & macadamia nut would be a nice combo as well. Very nice recipe, and I can't wait to try it with cake from scratch! :-) Thanks, LTH!

Shiitake Angel Hair Pasta
An excellent recipe. The mushrooms soak up all the yumminess from the chicken stock and white wine and go perfectly with the creaminess of the sauce. This is a nice side dish for a change from the usual potatoes or rice. It is also a nice meatless main dish and is even good with plain white mushrooms if that is what's in the fridge.
