French Onion Soup

Ladypants got me a fancy Dutch Oven. Clearly, the only thing to do was to make French Onion Soup. So make French Onion Soup I did.

Cherry Marzipan Pie

Tiny apartments call for tiny pies.  Four tiny pies, in fact. These pies are regular pie crust, lined with marzipan, and filled with cherries.

Chicken and Mint

We tried for something really different today.  We got fresh dates at the farmers' market.  The dish was minced chicken, almonds, fresh dates, and squash over brown rice finished with fresh mint and lemon.

Serrano, Mango, Banana Bread

Just an experiment.  It turned out to be a nice little sweet and spicy treat. I used my regular banana bread recipe, but I substituted frozen mango for about 2/3 of the banana. I tossed a Serrano chilli into the butter as it browned, and ended up with something delicious.
