Beef Ziti Casserole

I was very impressed with this meal. It's easy to make, and was delicious. I did, however, make it with cream of chicken soup instead of the mushroom soup. Excellent flavor. Good combination of veggies, meat and pasta.

Cinnamon Spiral Bread

I made this bread as a birthday gift and got rave reviews! Even my husband who is not a big bread eater called it "awesome!". I sprinkled the top with additional cinnamon and sugar and drizzled a vanilla glaze over the top - very pretty!
