Quick Sweet and Sour Pork
"This was a hit at our house, esp with the kids. The only sauce ingredient we didn't have was pineapple (and the juice), so I put some apple juice and brown sugar in instead. The sauce was good, but next time I'd probably skip 1/2 the cornstarch (I used arrowroot) - it turned gummy quickly. We ended up doing a deconstructed dish, with the sauce on the side, and deep fried (GF) chicken instead of pork. We didn't put the peppers or pineapple in either. Will totally make again, the kids are asking for it already!"

Caesar Salad
"I skipped the anchovies as I don't care for them in Caesar salad. I would have liked a little less dressing in it. I only added 2/3 of the amount the recipe called for but it was still too much for me. The dressing was easy to make but I would not make it again as it was not that tasty. I did not have any croutons at home and did not want to go to a store for just one item. I had the salad with my Cinco de Mayo chicken fajita tacos which were delicious using a recipe for sheet chicken fajitas from Damn Delicious which I will definitely make again! Some of the toppings and the guac I made for the tacos are shown."
