Chicken In Sour Cream
This was great. Even my picky 7yo liked the chicken! The sauce was creamy and tangy without being overwhelming. The dill gave it a special taste. I made it exactly as written, except I didn't add any extra salt to the chicken (the onion soup mix and condensed soup have enough). I used the whole packet of onion soup mix and didn't think the dish was too salty. And I added thinly sliced red potatoes to the dish for the entire baking time. I used cream of celery soup, but I think any soup would work.

Banana Crumb Muffins
These were an excellent use of some old bananas. To keep them moister for longer, I used vegetable oil instead of butter (same quantity). Also I only had 2 bananas, so used those plus a small snack-size cup of unsweetened applesauce. Per other reviewers, used a mix of 1/2 cup white sugar and 1/4 cup brown sugar, and added 1 tsp vanilla, 1/2 tsp nutmeg and 3/4 tsp cinnamon. Great spicy, banana flavor!

Shish Tawook Marinated Chicken
This was awesome. We loved it. I added a little bit extra yogurt to the marinade (used greek style), and omitted the optional curry powder. I also cut back a little (1t) on the allspice, and added some fresh garlic. It marinated for about 6 hours and was great. I can't wait to make it again! We served it with rice and pita, and had hummus as well. The garlic dipping sauce was a perfect accompaniment. I stirred it into my dish on my plate.
