Western Skillet
This is a great basic recipe that's easy to make and easily adapted to personal preference. I did want to point out that the servings per recipe is OFF for this recipe. Any time I see a recipe that's only 4 servings, I always double it for my family of hearty eaters. I doubled this recipe and it FILLED an 8 quart stock pot!! It is DEFINITELY an 8 serving recipe. It makes PLENTY for a regular family of four to eat at one meal. Doubling it gave me enough for my family of four to eat (myself, husband, 18 year old son and 13 year old son), enough for my husband and me to take to lunch tomorrow AND I froze 4 HEARTY servings to eat at a later date so the leftovers wouldn't go bad!

West Tennessee Corn Bread
This made good cornbread. I doubled the recipe to make in a 9 inch deep dish pie plate and it was the perfect amount. I will NOT double the salt next time as mine turned out to be a little saltier than is my preference. I also omitted the sugar because I don't like sweet cornbread. I loved the tang from the mayo and buttermilk. I did add 1/2 a stick of melted butter and about 1/4 cup extra milk. I also buttered the top of it IMMEDIATELY after taking it out of the oven so the butter could melt into the top (blame my deep south Georgia roots on that one!). It was still a little dry around the edges for "regular" cornbread but for GLUTEN FREE CORNBREAD it was AWESOME! Will definitely make this again as it is a recipe that the WHOLE family can enjoy.

Holly's Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Dip
This dip was really easy to throw together and had a nice flavor. We followed another reviewer's suggestion and served it with (gluten free) pretzels. The saltiness and crunchiness of the pretzels was a good contrast to the richness and creaminess of the dip. It should be said (and has been said before by other reviewers) that the consistency is NOT like that of chocolate chip cookie DOUGH and the flavor is rich and slightly cheescake-y. If you want chocolate chip cookie DOUGH (and not dip) then make a batch of chocolate chip cookie dough and substitute a flaxseed / water mixture for the eggs which would make it safe to eat raw. If you want a lovely dessert DIP to serve with crackers (or pretzels) at a party, then serve this.
