Toffee Cashew Bars

This is an easy, delicious bar recipe that always gets raves when I bring it to work. Add the chocolate chips to the top, it makes them that much better.

The only issue I have with this recipe is that the crust doesn't hold together well. Large pieces flake off horizontally, leaving thin bars. If anyone knows what to do to solve this problem, I'd be grateful for the help.

This is a dead simple pasta dish that gets my teenagers to eat spinach. It's light and delicious. Cooked in one pot, so cleanup is simple as well.

We like this version with the chicken broth and milk better than the version they published in 2007 that uses chicken broth and water, http://www.cooksillustrated.com/recipes/detail.asp?docid=8394, though we do put toasted pine nuts on ours.

Baked Ziti

We find this recipe rather bland. My kids asked me to add sausage next time to punch it up.
