I have made this for years. It needs a little olive oil mixed into the drained pasta. Ziti is my pasta of choice. You can uses the fake soy sausage and nobody will know. Kale, chard, or any soft green leafy veg. will work. Sun dried tomatoes in oil are a nice touch. Instead of the parmesan, I sprinkle soft goat cheese or crumpled feta in at the end and toss. Yum!

Truly delicious. Only gave it 4 stars because they did not rise. Muffins were flat. Other recipes rise nicely. Made several batches with same results.

This is the BEST carrot cake I have ever made. My husband doesn't like carrot cake and he LOVED this! Thank you Tammy! Followed advise of others. Decreased oil amount to 3/4 cup and added 1/2 cup applesauce. Used 1 cup white and 1 cup brown sugar. Added 3/4 cup golden raisins. Decreased 10X sugar to 2 cups and still had leftover frosting. Used parchment paper on bottom of 13X9 pan -- a must to remove cake without breaking. Used glass pan so I lowered oven temp to 325* and baked about 45 minutes. After cooling cake for 10 minutes, put cooling rack on top of cake and turned cake out onto rack. Cool. Turn over again onto hard surface to frost and cut into pieces. Use spatula to lift pieces onto serving plate. You can then throw away parchment paper. No mess.

Dip was very good. Used 16 oz. of low fat sour cream and didn't add any extras. Found it to be a bit runny, so only gave it 4 stars. Maybe it was the "low fat" that made it runny. Will make again though.

Tried these cookies today and they were every bit as good as promised. Followed recipe exactly.(To make the whole recipe you do need a large, sturdy mixer.)Chilled dough for 1/2 hour before baking. Weighed dough at 1 1/2 oz. for each cookie and put 9 on each cookie sheet. Took 10 minutes to bake. Do not overbake! I don't even like cookies or cookie dough but this batter is awesome! Made exactly 5 dozen cookies.
