A few family favorites

 

My favorite quick fix dinner lately is from Cooking Light.  You can find the recipe here:

Farfalle with Creamy Wild Mushroom Sauce

I usually substitute button mushrooms for the wild mushrooms, as my family likes it better.

 

One that requires a bit more work, but gives off the most wonderful aroma is:

Beef Bourguignonne with Egg Noodles.

 

The recipe my family loves the most is Roast Chicken Provencale.

  It turns out so elegantly.  I usually serve it with some mashed potatoes.

 

Our favorite salad, that I tried for the first time on Christmas was Gorgonzola & Honey Pear en Croute Salad. 

One substitution I made was to use fresh pears instead of canned, and it turned out wonderful.  I made a few without gorgonzola for my husband, who doesn’t care for blue cheese.

 

Another salad I love is  Mixed Apple Salad over Greens.

  I just make a few extra slices of bacon on a weekend morning and set them aside for the salad. 

 

 I would post pictures, but I went a bit crazy when I started with live spaces, and now I have reached my limit for the month.  I’ll add them on April 1st.  You live and you learn.
