Fruit Galette

This Fruit Galette has very few ingredients, and is quick and easy to make. A Galette is a term used in French cuisine to designate various types of flat round or freeform rustic tarts with hand-folded edges. I love them because they don't have to be perfect and with few ingredients.

Fig & Rosemary Pizza

I managed to pick some figs off our enormous fig tree. Having is fig tree has it rewards, but it's a mess when they fall! Splat! Pizza is one of my favorite foods. I have made pizza for years and am always perfecting my technique. I used gruyère cheese for this one, but you could also use goat cheese, ricotta, parmesan, etc.

Parmesan Crusted Swordfish with Lemon and Crispy Caper Sauce

My friend Mary Ann had an incredibly elegant dinner party and made this Swordfish. No on has formal dinner parties anymore. So many people put in "high-end" kitchens in their homes and never entertain. Mary Ann made everything seem effortless, but it was due to her advance planning and preparation. You could actually do this with different kinds of fish or chicken.
