Sam's Famous Carrot Cake

Reviewed: Nov. 6, 2009
I have made this cake several times, and it is wonderful! The only changes I made was to add about 1/8 tsp of nutmeg, and I left out the coconut and raisins for preference reasons. This time I made cupcakes. I topped them with cinnamon cream cheese frosting, and they were an absoloute hit at work. Carrot cake is my favorite dessert of all time, and this is by far the best recipe I have ever tried.

The Best Vegetarian Chili in the World

Reviewed: Feb. 26, 2009
I just won second place in a chili cook-off at work with this chili! There were 12 entries and no one could believe mine was vegetarian! I read a lot of reviews and made just a few changes: Used only two 28 oz cans of tomatoes, added about 4 chipotle peppers, minced (the ones in adobo sauce), used only one jalapeno and one green pepper, only 1 tsp of salt and omitted the corn. Some people said it was kind of spicy, and some said it wasn't spicy at all. I think it was just the right amount. Chili is one of those foods that people like a certain way, and you can't please everyone. However, I do have to say that if this chili beat 10 other "meat chilis" in a contest...it must be good! I also wanted to mention that the consistency was perfect with two cans of tomatoes- not too runny and not dry. Good stuff!
