Wild Rice & Chanterelle Salad with Fresh Chevre
Here’s a hearty salad that can be a satisfying vegetarian or gluten-free entrée or if you’d like toss in some shredded cooked chicken breast or duck confit.

Blue Cheese and Caramelized Shallot Dip
Here’s a delicious blue cheese dip that can also easily be turned into a salad dressing with a little thinning by adding a little cream or half and half. Our favorite blues to use are Roquefort or Fourme d’Ambert from France, Valdeon from Spain, and Gorgonzola from Italy. Makes 2 cups

Tomato & Asparagus Frittata
Make this frittata the next time you need to serve an easy yet still impressive breakfast.

New Orleans Beignets
It’s almost Mardi Gras, and since we can’t be in New Orleans during this festive time of year, we’ll be making classic New Orleans Beignets for breakfast next week! Make a cup of chicory coffee to drink alongside and you’ll swear you’re at Cafe du Monde!
