This baked flan recipe is quick and easy to prepare in the blender. It's great served warm or cold and has a delicate creamy texture like custard. Slice the flan and spoon a little of the melted sugar onto the top of each slice.

Goat Cheese Stuffed Tomatoes
A recipe recommended by the goat cheese guy at my local farmers market. May also be cooked on the grill.
Tuscan Fish Stew
I spent a few days in Florence about 30 years ago, and while I don't remember much, I do recall my surprise at how delicious the Tuscan fish stew was. What I found so interesting was how herbs like oregano, sage, and rosemary, which I'd only associated with meat, were also used with seafood. Also, FYI just in case any old-school Tuscans are coming over: I hear that for this to qualify as an official Italian fish stew you need use at least 5 different types of seafood, which is both insane and adorable. Serve with crusty bread.
