Sweet Restaurant Slaw
As Rachel Ray would say, YUM-O. I made a few additions after reading the reviews. I made a smaller amount of slaw and used 1 head of green cabbage instead of the bagged. I added cut up broccoli florets, and only used 1/3 cup of mayo, since I saw reviews that said it was a bit soggy, and I don't like my coleslaw very wet. I used mayo instead of miracle whip (because I saw that the MW added sweetness), 1/4 c. of sugar, rice wine vinegar instead of white, and about a teaspoon of deli mustard for some uumph. Delish, and the perfect amount of sweetness for me. Obviously I made changes, but outside of the sweetness, the recipe itself is great. I think it just depends on how sweet/wet you like your coleslaw. Will make, again and again!

Broiled Sweet and Tangy Tilapia
good recipe. very easy with a great, light sauce. i read the reviews and used apple cider vinegar instead of the raspberry, and i didn't have any tarragon, so i just omitted it. it was still great, even with the substitutions. i noticed some people thought it was too bland, but that may be due to seasoning. i always season according to my own taste, and just salt and pepper only never gets it for me! i used old bay seasoning, pepper, and a bit of rosemary, and it was great. the sauce should be doubled, but it's definitely an easy keeper, especially for a so-so fish like tilapia!

Sloppy Joes II
I made this recipe as directed and for me, it was way too sweet. I would maybe try 1 tablespoon of sugar and add the others to taste. It was also a little bland as well, missing that extra "oomph". I added some A-1 and played with it until I gave up. It seems like it's almost there but not quite, which is why i gave it a 3. I looked at some other recipes and would probably add the vinegar & worstershire next time.
