Ingredients: fresh pasta, italian sausage, mozzarella, parmesan, pasta sauce, spinach and ricotta filling

This recipe has been a favorite ever since the first time I made it. It’s all the delicious richness of lasagna but sized for one person. Perfect for those of us who never have 8-12 people to dinner to eat a whole tray of lasagna, or anyone who does have 8-12 guests with 8-12 different food preferences. As a party host it’s also nice to set a perfect ramekin on everyone’s plate instead of trying to serve delicate squares of a saucy pasta landslide. Click here for the recipe & photo tutorial . . .

Ingredients: butter crackers, cayenne pepper, dry mustard, egg, fish, mayonnaise, onion, pollock, red pepper, salt, worcestershire

This pollock fish cakes recipe is closer to a crab cake variation than what you would expect a fish cake to be.  Pollock is a dense fish which is almost more similar to white meat than fish.  Pollock fish cakes are a hearty main dish, side dish, or sandwich filling.

Ingredients: butter, dill, flounder, garlic, ground black pepper, mayonaise, milk, parmesan cheese, potato

This meal is a sort of a fresh variation on fish and chips. The flavors work together in the same way, but because this is baked instead of fried it creates an opportunity for spices and cheese to become the focal point. The flounder is tender but with a crispy crust, and the potatoes are baked in milk, butter and spices so they have everything that makes mashed potatoes taste great but with a texture more like a baked potato.

Ingredients: cardamom, cinnamon, egg, flour, milk, nutmeg, oil, salt, sugar

Swedish pancakes are part way between crepes and fluffy American pancakes.  Spiced Swedish Pancakes have the addition of cinnamon, nutmeg, and cardamom which is a great base for a peanut butter and maple syrup topping or the classic sugar and butter filling.  The basic Swedish Pancake recipe lends itself well to a variety of toppings/fillings.  The core recipe calls for just a handful of basic ingredients and can easily be modified by adding a blend of spices.
