This was a delicious pasta salad! I am only giving it 4 stars because it required a few modifications: I reduced the oil to 1/4 cup and added some veggies - snow peas, carrots, and sweet peas. I also reduced the sugar to 1 tablespoon. It would also be great with toasted almonds, mandarin oranges, or crushed ramen noodles. While the adults in the house loved the salad, my kids did not - I think the flavor was just a little too strong. I really loved this salad and will be making it again!

This was a very good chicken dish. I made a few changes. I added some pineapple tidbits, sliced grapes, and used fresh mushrooms. Instead of using buttered bread for the top, I just sprinkled some bread crumbs on (I was trying to save on calories). This dish also tasted great the next day. I would recommend toasting the almonds before adding them to the casserole - it gives them a great flavor.

These buns turned out great! They were the perfect weight for hamburgers or sloppy joes. I used half whole wheat flour and they still turned out light and fluffy. I did let the dough rise before I formed the buns. It was a little difficult to get the shape right. I think the best way is to roll it out and use a round cutter. I am planning on making a double batch of these to make PB&J sandwiches for school to stick in the freezer. My kids loved the bread.
