Lemon Yogurt Mousse with Blueberry Sauce

This is a delightful little dessert that I made over the Memorial day week end. It was really airy and light and the combination of slightly tart lemon and sweet blueberry sauce is a match made in heaven. My family really enjoyed the presentation in the individual ramekins and loved, loved the dessert. There were a lot of mmm's and yum's around the table.

Broiled sesame salmon with carrots and leeks

My oldest daughter has asked me many times to make salmon for dinner and I finally did. This is only the second fish recipe I have posted which shows that cooking and eating fish isn't something I naturally gravitate to. It is not that I don't like fish. I will often order fish at a nice restaurant, but preparing and cooking it at home is still rare.

Blueberry White Chocolate Scones

One of my most favorite things to treat myself to with my afternoon tea or coffee is a delicious scone. I frequently buy one at one of my local bakeries, but none of them offer this combination of blueberries and white chocolate.

Beef and Potato Stew

Today was a chilly day with snowflakes swirling in the air. The temperature took a nose dive from this week end's balmy mid 70s to barely reaching 40 today. There seems to be no end to the weirdness of the weather this season. Well, it was a perfect day for meat and potatoes!

Ham and Parsley Risotto

If you are looking for ways to use up any of that leftover Easter ham I urge you to try this recipe. This Ham and Parsley Risotto is really easy to make although as with any risotto it  is somewhat of a high maintenance dish to make, due to the constant stirring and adding of liquid.

Indian Chicken curry Soup with carrots, apple, ginger and Chili

Even though I have found little time for my blogging this year this recipe is just too good to not be shared with all of my friends. It comes from my favorite Norwegian food blogger Trine at www.trinesmatblogg.no She has reached somewhat of a celebrity status in the Norwegian cooking world, and for good reason.

Slow-cooker beef and tomato stew

I

I came upon this recipe in Everyday Food, a small recipe booklet from the kitchens of Martha Stewart. I love this little magazine. It is always chuck-full of delicious recipes and ideas. I have made many of them and Martha never disappoints. I was so happy to see a slow-cooker recipe in the latest issue and it was the first meal I made in my new slow-cooker.
