Princess Pudding

Princess Pudding by Ashley B.

This recipe is taken from Fran Bigelow’s Pure Chocolate and the name apparently derived from someone saying the pudding was “fit for a princess.” Pudding is a guilty pleasure of mine … I love good, whole cream, all natural, creamy dreamy pudding. This recipe is a perfect example and is wonderfully simple. It is by far the creamiest,…

Herb Crusted Salmon with Pistou

Herb Crusted Salmon with Pistou by Ashley B.

Pistou is France’s answer to Italy’s pesto. It is a sauce/condiment made of crushed basil, garlic, and olive oil – quite possibly 3 of my top 10 ingredients.

Primavera Fettuccine Alfredo

Primavera Fettuccine Alfredo by Ashley B.

This was another request from my husband – well, he wanted Fettuccine Alfredo with chicken. Since Alfredo sauce is pretty much nothing but cheese, cream, and butter I told him we’d compromise and I’d make a Primavera-style Fettuccine Alfredo with lots of vegetables. This was the first time I actually made homemade Alfredo sauce and…

Oh my, Mac and Cheese!

Oh my, Mac and Cheese! by Ashley B.

This is adult-style, oh-so-yummy mac and cheese. My husband mentioned that he had heard about a mac and cheese recipe that used white wine. So the curiosity got the best of me and I started looking into different mac and cheese recipes. I found a few different styles and put together this recipe – the wine addition really did give it…
