Chicken Manicotti Alfredo
A very rich Italian pasta dish. Bottled Alfredo sauce can be used to speed preparation, if desired.
Mushroom-Lentil Burgers
Mushrooms and lentils come together for a veggie burger worth making! The mushrooms yield a beefy flavor but I like to kick it up a notch by mixing steak sauce with mayo to slather on the bun for extra "beefy" flavor.
Cream Cheese Pound Cake with Lemon Glaze
Butter and cream cheese provide the rich taste in this deliciously dense pound cake. I always top mine with a fresh lemon glaze made of fresh lemon juice and confectioner's sugar.
