Annie's Fruit Salsa and Cinnamon Chips
Really good! The chips make this dish. Make them the day before. I did not add any sugar, and used "no sugar added" strawberry jam. This was a huge hit - I doubled the recipe for Easter party of 13 people, and it was gone in an hour. I used blackberries instead of raspberries, and Cortland apples. The flavors were awesome.

Pizza Dough III
This was SO easy, and good too. I made the recommended adjustments. I used all purpose flour, added 1/4 tsp each of marjoram, oregano, thyme, basil, and garlic powder, and used only 3/4 cup of water. This was good, and SO easy. Five stars for the simplicity of this recipe!

Strawberry Shortcake
This was excellent! I did, however, make the recommended adjustments: To the shortcake: -decrease to only 2 tsp of baking powder -add 1/4 cup sugar -add 1 tsp vanilla. I also added 1.5 tsp of sugar to the whipped cream. This was delicious, and people raved about it all night. It was gone in about 7 minutes! I will definitely be making this again!
