"Instead of the frozen bread dough, we use our own homemade bread dough (bread machine, 90 min. for dough) and instead of butter (lactose issues) use 1 Tbsp. coconut spread and 1 Tbsp. shortening. Same in the icing. Have subbed honey for half the powdered sugar too, and it turned out splendid. This is a very forgiving recipe! I;m thinking o..."

"Pure delight! We;ve made this recipe about half a dozen times now, sometimes with regular unbleached flour and sometimes with a white whole-wheat flour, and we actually like it slightly better with the whole-wheat. We substitute almond milk for the milk and use all shortening instead of butter because of lactose issues around here. Have to ..."

"These are divine! Truly, nobody can guess they;re "vegan" cupcakes -- in fact, as someone else has said, they;re BETTER than "regular" cupcakes. They make plenty so you;ll have some for the kids; school event or whatever, plus some for home too. Mini-cupcakes take about 11 or 12 min. in our oven. I;ve made with both uns..."

"Used an olive oil-vegetable oil blend instead of butter in this recipe. One in the house has recently been diagnosed with a milk allergy. Plus, I thought the olive oil would be a fine substitution since olive oil is a Greek thing anyway, right? : ) Three of the four of us loved these. The other has only sweet teeth in his mouth, and the tangine..."

"Wow, I can't believe this great little recipe has been missed by so many! A thousand people ought to try it. I didn't have prosciutto, so I substituted with some flamin-hot Italian pepperoni that our mild-happy household wasn't eating. It was perfect in the chicken. Also used fresh diced tomato cuz I didn't have the sun-dried in the house. Add..."

"We made this without rice, served cold as a kind of a salsa with tortilla chips for Thanksgiving supper. I made way too much for our small family, but it was a huge hit. My Mom didn't even ask -- she just took about a third of what was left as leftovers for her and Dad! (It's a custom to share leftovers, but we USUALLY say PLEASE, Mom!) Didn't ..."

""I can't say enough about them," says 8 year old Joel.
We used store-bought hothouse strawberries. I'm looking forward to our own Michigan strawberries soon, so we can pick them ripe and juicy, and I think that'll put this recipe over the top. We made muffins. Waited until the next day to eat as others suggested. Very, very good."

"Great recipe! "It was good. I liked the spices," says 8-year-old Joel.
We made wraps with this several nights and also ate it with potatoes one night. It's a very versatile entree. I followed the recipe as exactly as I could -- used dried rather than fresh cilantro and ground red pepper rather than flakes. Our chili powder is McCormick's H..."
