No Oven Peanut Butter Squares

Got this from Kraft Website - looks like a good easy bar recipe for a pot luck

1/2 cup butter or margarine

2 cups powdered sugar

1-1/2 cups NABISCO Graham Cracker Crumbs

1 cup PLANTERS Creamy Peanut Butter

1-1/2 pkg. (8 squares each) BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Chocolate (12 squares), melted

Make It

LINE 13x9-inch pan with foil, with ends of foil extending over sides of pan.
MELT butter in large microwaveable bowl on HIGH 45 sec. Add next 3 ingredients; mix well. Spread into prepared pan; cover with chocolate.
CUT partially through dessert to mark 48 squares. Refrigerate 1 hour or until firm. Use foil handles to remove dessert from pan; cut into squares. 

UPDATE: Made these and they were good but ended up breaking into uneven pieces when I cut them - broke apart like brickle

I can't believe it's not potato salad

1 large head cauliflower, chopped
1 1/2 cups fat-free mayonnaise
1/2 cup fat-free sour cream
3 tbsp. Hellmann's/Best Foods Dijonnaise
1/2 envelope dry ranch dressing/dip mix
2 tbsp. fat-free non-dairy liquid creamer
1/4 tsp. salt
6 hard-boiled egg whites, chilled and chopped
2 celery stalks, diced
1 cup diced red onion
1/4 cup chopped chives
3 tbsp. seasoned rice vinegar
2 tbsp. chopped dill
2 tbsp. chopped parsley, plus more, for optional garnish
Optional garnish: paprika

Place cauliflower in a large microwave-safe bowl with 1/3 cup water. Cover and microwave until soft, 6 - 8 minutes. Once the bowl is cool enough to handle, drain any excess water.

Put 2 cups of the cauliflower in a blender or food processor. (Set aside the bowl of remaining cauliflower.) To the blender, add mayo, sour cream, Dijonnaise, dressing/dip mix, creamer, and salt. Puree or pulse until blended. Don't worry if the puree isn't completely smooth. Set aside. To the bowl with the remaining chopped cauliflower, add all remaining ingredients. Add pureed mixture from the blender and lightly stir to coat.

Refrigerate for several hours before serving. Garnish with paprika and additional parsley, if you like. Mmmmm!
