Paneer Butter Masala

 I've been looking for a restaurant style paneer butter masala recipe. I tried this one from Swasthi's Recipes and it was amazing! My family devoured it and declared that we never need to get take out again. 

I subbed paprika for the chili powder and just added a few dashes of hot chili powder.

Next time, I'll add a bit more sugar- 2 tsp rather than 3/4 tsp.

Perfect Lemon Bars

I tried this recipe from Land-O-Lakes, and it's my new fave!  The rest the family raved about how good they were.  I followed the recipe, but added 1/4 tsp salt to the crust. They're done baking when the edges are turning brown and the center is no longer wobbly.
