Roasted Asparagus with Balsamic Vinegar
This is how I always serve asparagus. It's so yummy and easy. Can't beat it!

Tangy Chicken Fajitas
The only thing I changed was adding less vinegar. I'm not sure if this affected the taste in this way, but it was a bit "limey." So, when I make again, I'll use a bit less lime. Otherwise, great taste and recipe. I made these and put them in warmed tortilla with cheese, sour cream and home made guacamole. I halved the recipe but I wish I hadn't. We all wanted more after the two we ate!

Spaghetti Carbonara II
If I could, I'd rate 4.5, but I rounded up. This is a great recipe and I tweaked a bit based on other reviewrs. I'm a turkey bacon fan but I used the real stuff this time. When it was done, I added one chicken breast to the bacon grease. When I added the onion I also added a half bag of frozen peas- we like peas especially with bacon. I did add the wine too. I've been adding a little splash to many recipes here and there and I haven't been disapointed yet. The last change I made was mixing the eggs and cheese together then pouring over the noodle mix. Also, I used just a little parmesan and in its place I used an Italian cheese mix. I prefer this over parmesan. Didn't add any pepper or salt at the end nor did I have any parsley. My whole family (including three kids under 4)ate this up. I must admit, I've never had carbonara until tonight. I was wanting Italian takeout and this fit the bill. DH and I ate the left overs for lunch the next day. It's in my rotation!
