Patti's Mussels a la Mariniere
My husband said this recipe replaced his other favorite clam recipe, which he raves about! I read the reviews and just adjusted a few things. I used 8 cloves of garlic instead of 5 and 3 tbsp. of butter instead of 2. I also waited and added the green onions during the last five minues of cooking. When I reduced the wine broth, it seemed as if I didn't have enough liquid to steam the clams, so I added about 1/2 cup of chicken broth. These were absolutely delicious! The broth was so good to sop up with some crusty bread. I will most definitely be making it again and often!

Peanut Butter Banana Bread
I love regular banana bread, so I figured I would give this a try. I read the reviews and used 3 bananas, two tbsp. mayo, and one cup of smooth peanut butter. I baked as muffins at 350 degrees for 25 minutes and they came out beautifully. Great breakfast!

Cake Balls
These tasted good and people were impressed by them, but they were a bit time consuming and messy to prepare. I did what other reviewers suggested and prepared the cake and cut off the ends. I only used 1/2-3/4 of a can of frosting and I used the whipped kind, and the amount seemed to be perfect. I also froze the cake balls before dipping them into the chocolate coating. The mashed up cake tasted wonderful on its own, and I think the chocolate coating made them a bit too sweet for me. I coated several balls and kept the rest frozen for another occasion. I used a spice cake/cream cheese with vanilla coating and a devil's food cake/buttercream with chocolate combination. I would make again for the people that love sweets.
