Almond Chicken Stir-Fry
This was pretty good. I made it as is, except used a bit less chicken as I was making it for just the two of us. Kept the sauce amount as indicated though, so it worked out well. I used another reviewer's suggestion and added mandarin oranges. I added them on top of the stir-fry once it was in the plate, and it really was a great combination. Will try this one again for sure!

Bacon Cheeseburger Rice
This was okay. I think it would have been better if I had used regular bbq sauce. I only had garlic bbq sauce on hand, so I think that made it taste a bit off. The dill pickles are a nice touch, and tasted really great in the mixture. I will try it again with the regular sauce to see if it makes a difference.

Brooklyn Girl's Penne Arrabiata
Wow! Spicy!! We aren't crazy about dishes that are too hot, so I modified. I cut the red pepper flakes to a little less than 1/2 tsp. I also cut the garlic in half and used almost a full cup of tomato sauce. Besides that, I prepared the sauce as directed, and it was delicious. I agree with others, 1 egg and 1 cup of bread crumbs is plenty. I crushed flavoured croutons instead of using plain bread crumbs. I topped the pasta with fresh grated Parmesan cheese...mmmm!! Hubby loved it, and asked to have it added to our recipe collection.
