Carrot Pineapple Cake I

Reviewed: Apr. 8, 2012
Excellent Recipe! Great for bake sales and potlucks....or anytime! I followed the recipe for the cake but changed the frosting. I do not like the sickening sweet typical cream cheese frosting, it over powers a good cake. I made it this way and had a lighter version of the frosting: 1 - 8oz cream cheese, 1/4 cup butter, creamed. Add 1/2 cup powdered sugar, 1 tsp vanilla. Cream. Add 2 Tbl. milk to make it creamy and light and up to another 1/2 cup powdered sugar to a desired consistancy and sweetness. To finish, I added 1 tsp. orange zest for a surprise element that is very complimentary!! YUM!

Broccoli Salad

Reviewed: Mar. 13, 2012
I would recommend blanching the broccoli or putting in a microwave for a couple minutes. Low fat or fat free mayo, no bacon, afterall, low fat is the key :) Add 'liquid Smoke' flavoring to give the dressing a bacony flavor.... also, dried cranberries can be substitued for the raisins. A few cashews could be substituted for the sunflower seeds...adjust calorie count.
