Reviewed Decadent Chocolate Cake
"This is a good lower fat version of a chocolate cake - but I wouldn't call it decadent. It's not rich and overly sweet like the name implies - but that said, it is not dry like many low fat cakes, and it has a really nice consistency. I like the flavor, but I may tweek it next time with a little more cocoa. Since cardamom costs over $16 for a small bottle, I substituted 1/2 cinnamon and 1/2 nutmeg, which is the recommended substitute for baked goods. I didn't have any instant espresso, so I made an espresso in the coffee maker and used that - double strength coffee would work as well. I'm going to play with the recipe just a bit and give it another try.

Reviewed Portobello Lasagna Rollups
"Loved this recipe - I made it as regular lasagna rather than rollups and used the no-boil noodles - turned out great. I did double the mozzarella and parm cheeses though and spiced it up a little more. Next time instead of slicing the portabellas, I may use the larger ones and layer them within the lasagna to give it more 'weight' and a meaty taste. Also left out the spinach since I don't care for it. Thanks so much for the great recipe - it's a keeper!
