I made this AMAZING (recipe here) cake for my little brother’s birthday last year (he’s a big white chocolate fan) and it was SO good. I’ll definitely be making this again. We have a sweet exchange student living with us now who also loves white chocolate, so I need to make this for her.
Asparagus Lasagna
This was SO delicious. The chewy sweetness of the sun-dried tomatoes was the perfect complement to the earthy grassiness of the asparagus. Recipe here.
All-American Meat Loaf
Pretty darned tasty and the Dijon mustard adds a really nice zing. Recipe here.
Blue Cheese and Pecan Spread
Absolutely delicious spread (recipe here). I did substitute pecans for the walnuts, because they’re just so much better! The spread would be fantastic in the tea sandwiches, as specified, but was also wonderful on crackers. Would also be good on apples or celery sticks.
Asiago-Crusted Pork Chops
These (recipe here) were tasty and I even used the same preparation to make an asiago-crusted tofu portion for our family vegetarian. Very easy and delicious!
Lemon Red Snapper with Herbed Butter
This snapper (recipe here) was super easy and a hit with all of the seafood-eaters in the house.
Actually Delicious Turkey Burgers
These (recipe here) were quite good. Definitely not a replacement, exactly, for a beef burger, but good in their own right.
Whole Foods Sonoma Chicken Salad
This (recipe here) is VERY easy to throw together with leftover or even store-bought rotisserie chicken and is becoming one of our favorite recipes. Easy to keep on hand for eating “as is” or serving over greens or on a sandwich.

Gingerbread Pancakes
