This Alfredo dish is a light version of a creamy classic Italian-style dish! Add sautéed onions, garlic, and lightly cooked broccoli, and you have created a terrific dish! I sometimes substitute peas for broccoli.

Gluten-Free Holiday Bliss Cookie Bars
Using a basic cookie recipe, I revised it to be gluten-free and instead of the soft cake-like texture that Starbucks® Cranberry Bliss Bars have, these have a chewy, cookie-like texture. Also, I reduced the sugar so they're not quite so sweet.
Caesar Scalloped Potatoes
These Caesar scalloped potatoes really taste like Caesar salad. If you want more Caesar flavor mix some anchovies into the sauce.
Runzas (Bierocks)
My mother-in-law introduced me to this and it kinda stuck. I am from Iowa, now in Kentucky, and the only way I can get this is by making it at home.
