This is an alternative to the classic recipe that calls for powdered sugar. My husband and I use it to frost fruit cocktail cake. Try it on applesauce cake, spice cake, banana cake, or carrot cake, too.

Chicken Vegetable Barley Soup
This chicken vegetable soup is hearty and has great flavor. I like barley in soups instead of rice, and this is a great use of barley.
Sheet Pan Honey Mustard Salmon and Green Beans
This sheet pan honey mustard salmon and green beans features both beans and flaky roast salmon in the same lovely honey-Dijon sauce. Sheet pan meals are so convenient, and covering the sheet pan with aluminum foil makes cleanup a breeze.
Fish Egg Salad
This is a delightfully light gelatin dessert with small pearls of tapioca mixed in. You may use any flavor of gelatin mix that you like, and even stir in your favorite fruit when you fold in the whipped cream.
