    Yum, I love mascarpone cheese!  It's similiar to cream cheese so you can use it in place of that...although it's a little sweeter so take that into account.  It's also amazing putting a dollop on spagetti and meatballs!  Heck, it's good in any pasta!

    I've used it for making brownies and other desserts that called for it. Try googling. I'm sure you will find some use for it! GL

    Met with RE 4/11. 2 IUI's BFN. DE best option. Switched clinics to do "shared" program. Had to retake all tests and a mamm that put me behind and then on a DE waiting list for 12 months. Picked a donor!! (10/13/13) Got matched. Estimated transfer in December. After 2.5 years of patiently waiting I will finally cycle....can hardly believe it. DE cycle got cancelled. One of her tests came back positive.  Waiting for another donor. Donor picked!! (1/18/14)

    Spread it on a crisp, thin piece of toast, add a slice of smoked salmon/lox and drizzle with honey.

    (ETA:  There are some types of smoked salmon you're not supposed to eat if you are/might be pg.  So keep that in mind.  I think the non-refrigerated, vacuum sealed are supposed to be fine.)

    Try checking out food network, Giada uses it in a lot of her recipes. I agree with the PP it is great to finish off pasta sauces.

    I second tiramisu!!  Its one of my favorite desserts! This is the recipe I use, but there's raw egg in it, so not really ttc friendly I guess.  https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/giada-de-laurentiis/tiramisu-recipe/index.html

    Thanks for the suggestions. I am dipping my cinnamon pita chips in it and man is it good. I did find a recipe for chicken Marsala from Giada that I will make if I don't eat this whole thing.
