Marla Gibbs' Carrot Cake

I got the original recipe from Celebrity Chefs when Marla Gibbs was a guest about 30 years ago. Your ingredients list doesn't correspond to the directions. It should say 1 1/2 tsp baking soda and not "salt". That much salt is way too much.

It makes for a much better cake which everyone raves about.

This parmigiana is a nice way to enjoy Italian, marinara sauce and mushroom mixture, with the mozzarella cheese melted and fresh basil. Delicious.
