'Chinese Buffet' Green Beans
**IMPORTANT NOTE** Thanks to everyone who has tried this recipe! After reading all of the comments I think it is important to note that there can be a BIG difference between the "asian" store and "american" store version of your ingredients. I know that most american versions of soy sauce have a lot more salt, so I am assuming the american version of oyster sauce is also a bit different. We only use the asian store version for all of our ingredients, which is pretty close, if not sometimes the same brand, that they use in the restaurants. So if it didn't turn out for you the first time, try making a stop into your local asian grocer and try again :) ** And for some reason allrecipes changed my cooking instructions, but you do want to turn down down the heat a little once you add in the sauces to prevent burning and my beans actually take closer to 10 mins to cook to my desired tenderness. **

Quick and Easy Pizza Crust
This crust was AMAZING, even my hubby loved it and he is super picky about his crust! I've made 4 pizzas in 3 days, it's that good! I forgot to add in the oil, and put in 1/2 cup whole wheat flour in place of the white. I let it rise for 5-10 minutes then pre-baked it for about 7 minutes before adding the toppings. Since many others said it the crust was a bit bland I did put some italian seasoning and garlic powder into the pizza sauce just in case. I can't wait to mass make and freeze these for nights when we don't have a lot of time to cook!

Oatmeal Peanut Butter Cookies III
this was FABULOUS!!! No more buying them from the girls scouts when I can make my own! These turned out perfect, I followed the recipe just as written for the cookie part, but I omitted the butter and cream in the filling and just added water until it got to my desired consistency. I gently touched them with the back of a spatula as soon as they came out of the oven to flatten them and spreading the filling was no problem once they were completely cooled. The recipe does make a lot of filling, so you might want to cut down a little.
