Eggs with Chervil, Feta & Heirloom Tomatoes
Spicy Tuna Dip
This is the most requested dip recipe my family has! It sounds crazy but it is absolutely addicting!
Curry Dip
It's a tad embarrassing to submit this curry dip recipe. It contains only three cheap and accessible ingredients and requires less than five minutes to make.
Red, White and Blue Chipotle Dip
I was trying to figure out what to do with Blue corn chips because I was tired of eating them with just Salsa. I wanted something that was spicy, cool, thick and smokey.
Feta and Walnut Spread with Fig Preserves
After a few swings and misses from a friend's ill-trusted cookbook, I decided to toss the recipes and go with what I had on hand. The result was spectacular--the hit of the party! Salty, sweet and nutty, and with just a hint of spice from the black pepper, this dip is the grown-up version of the cream-cheese-and-jelly sandwich. It's important to use high-quality feta and preserves--don't even think about those plastic-packed feta "crumbles." I recommend Bon Maman fig preserves. Can't find fig preserves? Try swapping out apricot or strawberry. Serve with pita chips, crackers, or toasted slices of bread. - calliehoo
Texas Cheese Ball
Although not necessarily a "dip," I think a classic cheese ball qualifies because if you're impolite or just really hungry, you can put your cracker right in the ball. This recipe came as a child of the necessity of invention as I was asked to do a cheeseball for a function that tasted like one my mom had made using a pre-assembled spice mix, but we didn't have any of the spice mix left. So, the recipe that follows is what we came up with, and it was a hit and was requested at every holiday party we had this season.
Bresaola, Burrata & Golden Beets
The idea for this recipe came from a local Inn and Restaurant, Wine & Roses. If you have the best ingredients, this combination is delicious! The bresaola, found at any fine deli, should be sliced very thinly. Italian burrata, basically a cream-filled mozzarella, is very creamy and flavorful. If you cannot find an Italian burrata, there are some very high-quality American ones too.
Scrambled Ricotta with Chorizo and Bell Pepper
The best thing after a long night of celebration is the big breakfast. I wanted to step out of the typical breads, eggs and bacon breakfast but still keep it satisfying; then I remembered my Indian teacher’s variations in using Ricotta- a great substitute for scrambled eggs. For the vegetarians out there: opt out the meat and put more veggies.
Sardinian Flatbread with Feta and Za' Atar
My rosemary in the garden finally froze and I was looking for something to do with the flatbreads I had just made, meaning usually I brush it with olive oil and then sprinkle it with rosemary, coarse salt and black pepper. Then this came to mind, I think my flatbread will be singing a new multicultural tune.
grilled apple slices with prosciutto & cheddar
In this Prosciutto Wrapped Apples recipe the nutritional fiber from the apples and protein from the cheese and prosciutto will keep you satisfied. Try it!
Jammy Boursin French Toast
This Boursin French Toast recipe is easy to prepare, just needs to be popped in the oven in the morning, and there's not much cleanup afterwards. Enjoy!
Danish Blue & Cheddar Cheese Balls
My mother is a wonderful cook and she has taught me many a lesson in the kitchen. However, the real chef in the family is my grandmother, who we adoringly call, Honey. Honey recently gifted me all of her famous recipes and I feel like I have inherited the Hope Diamond. One of my favorite ways to 'spoil my supper' growing up was with these tasty cheese balls.
Tawny Port Two Cheese Spread
I wanted something different from the typical cheddar and wine spread. Something a little tangy and a little sweet, a little nutty and a little spicy. The port provides a nutty flavor and the quatres epices give it a nice warmth.
Nana's Cheese Breads
This recipe has been a family tradition since before I can remember. Every Christmas Eve, my Nana makes these bite sized cheese breads to go around before dinner. I've never seen an appetizer disappear as fast as this one does with my family. This recipe is so simple with very few ingredients and requires minimal effort when hosting a party. The flavor of these cheese breads will have you craving them after the first bite!
Cranberry Bucheron with Frangelico
My favorite hors d'oeuvres are easy to put together and full of flavor. It is no wonder then, that I love baked cheese and often have at least one version on the table during cocktail hour. Although I usually turn to brie for this task, this recipe is lovely with bucheron.
French baguette, with Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese, Italian Organic Fig preserve and Balsamic Glaze
My local grocery store is now carrying a selection of Di Bruno cheeses, as well as various condiments and jams. I created this recipe for an appetizer for one of my dinner parties, and it was a hit....The blend of sweet fig and savory balsamic, along with the melted cheese, was a delight to the senses!
Tall and Creamy Cheesecake
This is not really a New York cheesecake recipe — there’s no lemon (although there could be) — this is an all-American cheesecake of the big, beautiful, lush and creamy variety, the kind that causes gasps of delight when you bring it to the table and sighs of satisfaction when you and your guests savor bite after bite. The cake’s velvety texture is a result of a long turn in the mixer, and a cool-down process that requires patience, but not much effort. It’s also a cheesecake you can customize. You can make the cake milder or tangier by using all heavy cream or all sour cream, or a combination of the two. You can add fruits or nuts, swirls of chocolate or drops of extract.
Carrot Cake
This classic carrot cake recipe is not overly spiced, and it has texture from the grated carrots, shredded coconut, chopped nuts and raisins. If your dried fruit feels dry, plump it either by steaming the fruit for a couple of minutes; pouring boiling water over the fruit then draining it; or even just running it under hot tap water. Pat the fruit dry before using it. There’s enough frosting to fill the layers and cover the sides and top of the cake, but each layer is covered generously, so generously that when the next layer goes on the frosting ripples out around the edges. Then just swirl the frosting over the top, leaving the sides bare.
Chicken, Goat Cheese & Chutney on Pumpernickel
When I was a kid, I thought of pumpernickel as a grown-ups’ bread, and as I’ve gotten older, I have to admit, I just love it. It reminds me of my dad, who will often opt for it enthusiastically. This is one of my favorite combinations. The moisture in the cheese and in the chutney is plenty, no mayo needed. Brie is also nice.
Guilty pleasure lunch
Okay, I wasn't going to share this because I'm slightly embarrassed by how not balanced this is to eat for lunch, but it's delicious and I love it, and I do eat it for lunch, so I figured I'd share in case anyone else occasionally likes to indulge with something that's pretty much a dessert as their midday main course!
Chicken Meatballs, Italian Style
Corn with mint and ricotta salata
The saltiness of the cheese works really nicely with the sweet corn. The mint ties it all together.
Hot and Cheesy Corn and Artichoke Dip
I created this using ingredients I love- Fresh Corn, Cream Cheese, Artichoke Hearts, and Parmesian....easy, simple and not time consuming.
heirloom tomato salad
Can use the cherry tomatoe kind or big tomatoes cut into chunks. This is so refreshing and great with Blanc des Karantes.
