Garlic Rosemary Butter
We use this rosemary garlic butter recipe with everything from garlic bread and scrambled eggs, to pasta and mashed potatoes. You can use other herbs, too.

Aunt Fran's Pancakes
This comes from my husband's Aunt Fran. They are hands down the best pancake I have ever eaten. They taste lovely and have a very light texture. I use a variation with nonfat plain yogurt, whole wheat pastry flour and egg whites. They are delicious with blueberries too!!!
JALEPENO PEPPER BITES
My garden was full of these wonderful little peppers...some turning bright orange. These little stuffed peppers are real palate awakening wonders! If the peppers are small (bitesize) use a whole pepper. If they are larger, then before stuffing cut the pepper in half and stuff as directed.

Sweet Potato Gratin with Smoked Paprika and Cayenne
I love sweet potato recipes that complement the natural sweetness of the vegetable, instead of piling it on. Season this gratin with smoked paprika and cayenne.

Can't live without you Garlic Infused Olive Oil
I decided to make life simple and make my own DIY Garlic Oil and have it handy for all the recipes that call for garlic. Made with only 2 ingredients! Try it!

Sun-Dried Tomato Toasts
This is a super easy and fast appetizer to prepare, yet incredibly delicious. Proof that delicious does not have to be fancy and labour intensive. Your guests will be begging for more!

Pineapple Cranberry Deliciousness
My mom always made this on Thanksgiving when I was growing up. I always look forward to seeing the first batch of fresh cranberries arrive so I can get my fix! Mom always made it with walnuts. But, living in TX, I usually use my local pecans. It's all good!

Cranberry Pomegranate Sauce
This is a delicious sauce served hot or cold with turkey or pork

Sweet-scented cranberry sauce
I found a recipe which tried to be interesting with the addition of a sweet yellow apple and raisins to the cranberries. The idea was to raise the sweetness of the sauce. I thought this did not bring out a result too different from just cranberries and sugar, so decided to: 1) make the additions the same golden color (swapping white-grape raisins for the regular dark ones) and 2) kick up the fragrance factor (for which, to my mind, there is no better substitute than a well ripened quince). The sugar and cinnamon pair well with the new version too. I can eat this sauce on its own as a dessert (especially mixed with my home-made yogurt), not just as an accompaniment to meat!

Maple Spiced Cranberry Sauce
This cranberry sauce is sweetened with apple cider and a touch of maple syrup, rather than conventional sugar, for a healthier but flavorful Thanksgiving condiment.

Cranberry, Cherry & Port Sauce
This sauce is delicious and can be stored in the fridge and used with turkey, lamb or any game meat. It’s a very versatile sauce as it can be made with a variety of fruit just using the same technique. It can also be used as a spread on a turkey sandwich.

Cranberry, Tangerine, and Crystallized Ginger Relish
This incredibly fresh-tasting relish came from an old food magazine - not certain which one. It freezes beautifully, a big plus for my cooking, since I use cranberry sauce/relish in several favorite recipes. Surprizingly, the brilliant color survives the freezing. I usually double the recipe, especially for Thanksgiving.

Perfect Brussels Sprouts
Brussels sprouts are probably my favorite vegetable. I can't say no to them on a restaurant menu, or in a farmer's market. But it's understandable why some people are just deadset against them - they can be terrible when incorrectly cooked! This recipe plays up the natural flavor of sprouts, while infusing it with the flavor of chicken stock. You can of course substitute water for the stock, but I find it takes the sprouts to a new level. - Hotplate Gourmet

Grilled Taleggio cheese, Salami and Truffle Honey - Crostone di Taleggio, Salami con Miele Tartufato
For this recipe, use Italian bread and truffle salami don't hesitate - the difference is amazing. I make my crostones with Taleggio cheese instead of Fontina.

Fig-Goat Cheese Hors d'Oeuvre
Good with fresh apricots as well.

Mission fig rolls
This recipe comes from a stranger's picnic basket. I was at a concert about 15 years ago and we were having some wine listening to the municipal band play and next to me there were a group of friends sharing a few laughs and cheers; we all exchange food and the wine freely flowed, I remember the explosion of flavors in my mouth that within a week I was able to reproduced the explosive roll. I learn to cook by taste therefore a recipe was not required, this may even have a twist of its own from the original once shared... never saw him again... but the roll is a quick and delightful treat to share as in appetizer or in your picnic basket!

Deep Chocolate Cake with Orange Icing

Dreamy Cheese Eggs
We use this recipe quite often for our clients. It is very well received, and adaptable to many types of additions.

Flirtini
Do we really need to wait until the end of the summer for a good cocktail? I like to think of this as the "just because it's Monday" cocktail. There are several variations of this Flirtini drink, that I think was originally featured on Sex and The City. I always err on the simple side. This is ridiculously easy to make (and drink too much of.) Enjoy!
Doce de Abóbora: Sweet Butternut Squash compote with cloves
This doce de abóbora recipe is a dessert/compote that is reminiscent of the smells and tastes of my childhood in Brazil. There are many possible variations.

Foolproof Ice Cream
After making Ice Cream Recipes that didn't turn out well, I dug into the science of making ice cream. This recipe is for vanilla, but you can make any flavor.
Southern Sherried Shrimp
This Sherry Shrimp recipe leaves the shrimp whole as a main course. It's ideal served over slow-cooked stone-ground grits but also excellent on its own.

Apricot Pomegranate Fizz
