Slice of Dump Cake w/ Pineapple and Peach
Dump Cake with Crushed Pineapple and Peaches

Dump Cake I
I didn't have cherry filling, so used peach instead. Still a great combo with the pineapple. I didn't blend in the cake mix, just topped the fruit mixture with it and covered it with pats of butter (about 1 stick for a 9x9 pan). Baked for 50 min, as it was still soggy at 35 min. Came out great with a crusty top, but a little on the sweet side. Didn't have walnuts, but I think it would have been delicious. I might use fresh blueberries with the crushed pineapple next time. Would be just as easy to make, but with fresh fruit and less sugar!

Basic Chicken Salad
I added 1/2 tablespoon of dijon mustard and 1 tablespoon of sweet relish. Turned out great with the herbed chicken thighs!

Hearty Vegetable Lasagna
I made a healthier version that was a big success! I used whole wheat noodles instead of regular, added 3/4 cups of chopped zucchini to the rest of the veggies, used only 1.5 cups of mozzarella in the cheese mixture and left out the parmesan all together. Then I baked the lasagna in a 9x9 baking pan (had to trim the noodles) instead, so that 1 cup of mozzarella was enough to cover the top. More nutrients, less saturated fat, but just as delicious!
