Mmm-Mmm Better Brownies
I doubled the recipe and used 1/2 butter, 1/2 oil. I also used Hershey's Special Dark cocoa. The doubled recipe was perfect for the 8x8 pan. These brownies tasted really good, but had too much fat. I will bake these again, doubling the recipe but only using 1/2 cup butter. I love a rich, moist brownie but not one that is oozing oil.

Fruited Curry Chicken Salad
This was a delicious chicken curry salad. I tripled the amount of curry and added dried cranberries in place of the golden raisins, as I did not have any on hand, as well as Kraft's Olive Oil mayo. Delicious! My whole family loved it, which surprised me, as I really made this for me. Definitely a keeper.

Haricots Verts Lyonnaise
Oh my, this recipe is my absolute favorite recipe for green beans EVER! While the green beans are boiling, I saute the garlic and red onions in butter, then add the thyme. I don't discard the garlic or let the garlic rest in the butter for 20 mins. Then I take the green beans right from the pot to the skillet and toss them in the garlic/butter/red onion/thyme, add the red wine vinegar and the salt, pepper, and nutmeg to taste, and serve. I didn't have fresh parsley on hand so I omitted it. Heavenly!!
