Baked Prosciutto Cups
a one-bite wonder These prosciutto cups pack quite a punch. Between the saltiness of the prosciutto, the sweet creaminess of the mascarpone cheese and the fresh taste of the melon, you are in for a treat. Not only that, but they make for a beautiful presentation, are super easy to make, and will surely impress all of your friends. A great main dish to serve with these Baked Prosciutto Cups is Chicken with Asparagus and Artichoke Pesto. Complete your meal with a fun and easy dessert like Banana’s Foster.

Parmesan Shortbread
a delicious homemade shortbread cracker These Parmesan cheese shortbread crackers can be dressed up or down. Serve them with a simple cut of cheese or deck them out New Year’s Eve style and top them with roast beef and Gorgonzola, or mozzarella and a roasted tomato. They are delicious addition to any gathering. I like to serve these with my Smoked Turkey Appetizer, Baked Prosciutto Cups and Grilled Lamb Chops. More on Parmesan Shortbread »
Homemade Beer Bread
a super easy and hearty treat Beer bread has always been a favorite of mine. I’ve enjoyed it with my family for years. Believe it or not, it was not until recently that I started making it myself. Now I find myself looking for reasons to incorporate it into a meal. For a great meal, top a hunk of bread with thinly slice corned beef and a forkful of sauerkraut. Or, smear it with cream cheese and make it into a Skyline Sammie. More on Homemade Beer Bread »
