Marinated Tomato and Cucumber SaladOne last note, I really don't like the taste of vinegar, so I leave that out.

Baked Rice Pilaf with Parmesan CheeseSo good and so simple! I was making this as a side for fish, so I used vegetable broth instead. I also had to let it bake for 40 minutes for all the broth to absorb. Instead of mixing cheese in, I took off the foil and sprinkled a nice helping of the parmesan cheese on top and broiled it until the cheese was slightly browned.

Tilapia with White Wine and Lemon Basil SauceThis was delicious. I don't think you really need that much flour though, wasted too much. I didn't have any brandy, so I put about a large pinch of brown sugar. I also used shallots instead, which was delicious because the shallots absorbed the lemon juice. I didn't go by measurement for lemon juice, I just added as needed while cooking. Don't be afraid to taste everything as you make it. :)

GuacamoleGreat recipe, but I did add a couple things. I added about a Tablespoon of olive oil, sweet onion instead, extra cayanne pepper and cumin. I did find it was missing something, so I also added about a large pinch of celery salt and cut up some fresh cilantro right before serving. Perfect! My mom hates guacamole, but she loves it! It was gone in minutes. Will make again and again.
