Spinach and Gorgonzola-Stuffed Potatoes
These Spinach and Gorgonzola-Stuffed Potatoes is a recipe from Yotam Ottolenghi's new cookbook, Simple, A Cookbook which came out last week. There are so many recipes in this book that I need to make soon. This was dinner for 2. What could be better than a twice baked potato, especially when it has spinach, gorgonzola and walnuts?!

Sausage with Cranberry, Sage and Orange Zest Pinwheels
One of my favorite things to do is to develop recipes. I am always trying to add more hors d'oeuvres to my repertoire. I wasn't sure how these Sausage with Cranberry, Sage and Orange Zest Pinwheels would turn out. The combination of cranberries, sage and orange zest really works well with the sausage. They got rave reviews and are perfect for holiday parties.

Brussels Sprout and Gruyère Gratin
This Brussels Sprout and Gruyère Gratin makes an incredible side dish for your holiday table. I actually cut the recipe in half just to test it, but do not cut the cheese sauce in half! That is the chef's prerogative!

Lemon Pound Cake
My daughter Zoe made this Lemon Pound Cake. She has been doing the Bon Appétit, Basically 10 x 10 recipe, which is "Ten weeks, ten recipes that will make you a better cook". What a beautiful cake! I hope she saved me a piece!

Quick Apple Tart
This Quick Apple Tart Recipe makes a rustic dessert recipe that everyone loves! Instead of using apricot jam, I found Apple Cider Jam from Trader Joe's, though apricot works too. You can serve it with ice cream, whipped cream, powdered sugar….

Chocolate Caramel Tart
I made this Chocolate Caramel Tart and to say it's decadent is an understatement! No one could eat more than a sliver. The gooey caramel center really takes it over the top. If you happen to have a sweet tooth, you should try it. I also thought it would be good to chop it up and put it in ice cream, just to add to your caloric intake!

Rosemary Apple Cake
I woke up one morning and decided I needed to make an Apple Rosemary Cake. This is peak apple season. I love getting different varieties of apples. The combination of rosemary and apple really works in this very simple cake. It gets topped off with a rosemary syrup.

French Onion Gnocchi Casserole
I came across this French Onion Gnocchi Casserole and was intrigued. It was really delicious, though it would have helped if it were really cold outside (not a remote possibility in Los Angeles at the moment!) and you were REALLY hungry. It's not exactly a "light" meal, but if you're looking for comfort food, this is it!
