Blueberry Monte Cristo
Isn't it time you layered brie, and fat slices of ham, maple syrup and fresh blueberries all between two slices of cinnamon-swirl bread? Yeah. That's what we thought. It's the season of love.

And then there are the fillings. You can go simple with just cheese. Or you can spread the tortilla with a little refried beans before adding the cheese for a little more substance... Read More
Cranberry Brie Bites
I fell in love with these little Cranberry Brie Bites appetizers this fall when a friend brought them to our bi-monthly gourmet club.  And when I said that I swooned, I meant that I tucked into more than my fair share.  In fact, I can’t be sure anyone else actually had any.  Melty cheese makes me a bit weak in the knees – the addition of a little fruit, the puff pastry and that’s about all I need.  (Dinner, schminner!  Where’s the Sa...
