Sesame Pasta Chicken Salad
Excellent recipe~thanks...used sunflower seeds instead of sesame...very light asian flair...oh, and I marinated the chicken breasts in asian dressing all day, and cooked it on the stove, before slicing it to mix in w/ pasta...seved aside asian vegetable blend.

Hawaiian Chicken Salad
Good recipe.... added a couple dashes of salt after tasting end result, as well as a tablespoon of brown sugar. I thought this would be a lot better based on reviews...toddlers didn't care for it, nor did husband...sorry that i could not give a more positive rating.

Red Wine Flavored Beef
This was very good...first time I used red wine in cooking anything...white, yes...I always used cream of mushroom soup after the roast has started to fall apart. I thought I would try something new since I had red wine on hand, and no mushroom soup. Nice/pleasant surprise. I added the entire pack of onion soup mix. I also browned the roast in a cast iron pot, after stuffing in w/ garlic, salting and peppering it, and adding a bit of worstershire sauce.
