Lavender Tea Bread
I make this tea bread when the lavender is in bloom. Try it with fresh strawberry slices on top.
Käsesahnetorte (German Yogurt Mousse Cake)
In Germany, the filling for this classic cake (called Käsesahnetorte) is made with quark but quark is not easy to find in the U.S. and quite pricey. I use Greek yogurt instead, and it tastes just the like the original. The cake needs to set for at least 4 hours in the fridge, and it tastes better on the second day, so I always make it the day before serving.
Collins Goulash
This is a goulash recipe handed down from my grandmother to my father. It's a very unique creamy white-sauce goulash that takes about 20 minutes to make. It's a real winner with kids and my family's favorite! Give it a try and let me know how you like it.
