Like a lot of cooks, you probably tweak recipes slightly to suit your family's tastes and diets. A little extra spice here... sub low-fat sour cream there...
When you create your own version of a Tablespoon.com recipe, you're doing the same thing. The only difference? You're recording your changes.
So next time you want to make that chicken parmesan everybody loved so much, you'll be able to view exactly what you changed. Plus, you can share your recipe so others can try it too.
Pretty nifty, huh?

Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). In 13x9-inch pan, melt butter in oven. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over butter. Arrange pineapple slices on brown sugar. Place cherry in center of each pineapple slice, and arrange remaining cherries around slices; press gently into brown sugar.
Add enough water to reserved pineapple juice to measure 1 1/4 cups. Make cake batter as directed on box, substituting pineapple juice mixture for the water. Pour batter over pineapple and cherries.
Bake 40 to 45 minutes (42 to 48 minutes for dark or nonstick pan) or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Immediately run knife around side of pan to loosen cake. Place heatproof serving plate upside down onto pan; turn plate and pan over. Leave pan over cake 5 minutes so brown sugar topping can drizzle over cake; remove pan. Cool 30 minutes. Serve warm or cool. Store covered in refrigerator.

SuperMoist® butter recipe yellow or white cake mix can also be used to make this popular cake. Make cake batter as directed on box, using reserved pineapple juice as part of the total water measurement.

Everyone loved this cake! It was easy and super moist.
My son in-laws favorite cake is pineapple upside down cake so I made this for him on his birthday 26th of December and everyone loved it!! Great!!!!
This recipe is super easy to make and tastes great! even better with whipped cream
I thought I was the only one who knew the secret...adding the pineapple juice to the mix! I get requests for this all the time and everyone thinks I slaved in the kitchen all day! Who am I to agrue with tummy-happy freinds! Only thing I would suggest different is using a cast iron skillet if you can, for some reason it just tastes better and looks fab!
After viewing this recipe I wish I had pineapple and the cherries in my house right now so I could make it.Ahh well, maybe next weekend!
I've been making this for years! It's always the same, its easy !but people ooooo and ah about it!Whipped cream is a must!
