Tortilla Soup
We LOVED this soup! I made it with hand shredded turkey (Thanksgiving leftovers, in fact), added about 1/3 c of canned corn, and simmered for 10 minutes and 20 minutes, instead of 10 and 3-5. I skipped the cilantro and cheese for serving, and made the Tortilla Snack Strips (cut much smaller than called for) for topping. My fiance (an ex-chef) was amazed when I told him how simple this recipe was, as it tastes like something that takes much more work!

Homemade Chicken Parmigiana
My fiance loves the sauce for this recipe (I like it as well, but he LOVES it!), and with a tiny bit of tweaking, we both love the chicken portion. I make sure to pound the chicken down and reduce the cook time, plus I use a heavy-handed teaspoon of both basil and oregano in the crumb mixture. If I'm short on time, I skip the sauce portion and just make the chicken part and top with spaghetti sauce and a mixture of 1/4c mozz and 1 T packaged parmesan. Yum.

Chocolate Fudge Buttercream Frosting
I would never classify this as a buttercream frosting. It pretty much tasted like a sweeter version of frosting from a can. Much too sweet, and also much too runny. It would probably be OK on a sheet cake, but on a layer cake it literally ran down the sides a bit and pooled on the cake plate. Definitely will not be making again.
