Caramelized Onion Tart with Gorgonzola and Brie

Caramelized Onion Tart with Gorgonzola and Brie

A little while ago, on a visit to Annisquam, Massachusetts, my friends Ann and Nick hosted an "Impress the Food Blogger" dinner at their home. Guests were encouraged to bring a favorite dish, and we all got to vote on what we thought would be a hit on the site. The evening was a blast, the votes were tallied, and the winning dish? This caramelized onion tart, or pizza as it was called, brought by Ann's friends Jeff and Marilyn. I've made this tart several times since I first had it, and it's one of those dishes you want to limit to special occasions, because it's really hard to stop eating, it's that good. Crispy, pillowy puff pastry, with balsamic caramelized onions, topped with sprinklings of gorgonzola, brie, and tarragon.

Chicken Liver Pâté

Chicken Liver Pâté

Chicken liver pâté. Looks atrocious. Tastes great.

In fact, this is one of those instances where you pity the fool who refuses to eat something because it doesn't look appetizing. And then you're secretly happy because that means there's more for you. (By the way, the secret to serving or photographing unattractive food? Put it on a pretty plate.)

Pinto Beans with Bacon and Jalapeños

Pinto Beans with Bacon and Jalapeños

A family favorite meal around here is steak, salsa, and beans, often served with some warmed fresh corn tortillas on the side. Usually the beans for this ensemble are refried beans, but this week we decided to serve the beans whole, and dress them up a bit with pan roasted jalapeños, onions, and bacon. So good! And quick and easy too. Sprinkle with fresh chopped cilantro to serve.

Cajun Turkey Pot Pie

Cajun Turkey Pot Pie

Winter took its sweet time coming to Northern California this year, but it did finally arrive, and here we are with long, chilly nights and frost-kissed mornings. Perfect weather for a warming bowl of pot pie. There is the classic chicken pot pie of course. But with the holidays we thought we might try our hand at a turkey pot pie made with cooked turkey, a perfect dish for holiday leftovers. This turkey pot pie has a Cajun twist, starting with the trinity of onions, celery and green bell peppers, and spiced up a bit with Cajun seasoning. It's topped with a flaky, buttery crust, which is in my opinion, the best reason of all to make a pot pie.

Traditional Roast Beef Hash

Traditional Roast Beef Hash

Have any leftover roast beef? Here's how we make roast beef hash. From the recipe archive. First posted in 2004. Happy holidays! ~Elise

Hash is a great way to use up leftover cooked meat. We tend to use roast beef, but leftover pot roast or other meats could easily be used. What really helps making an excellent hash is an old fashioned meat grinder. If you don't have a a meat grinder, you can use the grinder attachment of a KitchenAid. You can also chop the meat, potatoes, and onions very fine with a knife, though the resulting consistency will not be as blended as what you can achieve with a meat grinder.
