Vanilla Cream or Sauce
This is really delicious on its own, but I use it mainly to serve alongside brownies, bread pudding, apple pie, berries, or poached pears. You can either make this as a thicker cream or as a sauce. I love it as a cream for berries, poached pears or brownies and as a sauce over apple pie or bread pudding. Serve chilled over warm or cool desserts or just eat it on its own as a custard.
Oven Pancake with Apples
Delicious browned apples are the secret to this simple and hearty oven pancake. Very good when served with warm maple syrup.
Baked Asparagus and Mushroom Pasta
This pasta with mushrooms and asparagus has classic Mediterranean flavors and provides American-style comfort food for your family! If you are looking for a meatless meal, serve this with a salad and crusty bread. If your family prefers a protein, a rotisserie chicken or a slice of ham would be an easy and tasty addition to the lovely flavors of this casserole.
