No Bake Cheesecake I
Great recipe. I've made it twice. Once as a whole cheesecake and second as cheesecake bites. I altered a bit by adding a second 8 oz box of cream cheese. I also used the powdered dream whip, whipped it up and added it into the mix. For the cheesecake bits, I added a small box of lemon flavored Jello and omitted the lemon juice. I love both versions, so did my husband, family, and friends.

Cornucopia
This was a fun recipe. I didn't use the egg wash to connect the pieces together because it was too slippery. I put the egg wash on at the end. I only used two rolls of breadsticks. Then I filled it with cut-up veggies and grapes. Thank you for the neat idea. It was a Thanksgiving hit.

Easy Homemade Chili
It is a good base recipe. I omitted the tomato sauce in place of tomato paste. I added 1 tbsp of cumin, and about 1 tblspn ancho chili pepper spice. I used Bush's chili beans, undrained, in place of the other beans, which gave it even more flavor. If you like to spice up your chili this is a good recipe for an advanced cook who can jazz it up.
