Easy Fried Morel Mushrooms
Fresh morels are simple and quick to fry and enjoy. These mushrooms are a treasure of the woods hunted by many in the early spring here in Missouri. They can be very hard to find but well worth the work once you get lots of them to eat.
Pasta e Fagioli a la Chez Ivano
I have been preparing this magnificent pasta and bean soup, unchanged for over 30 years, and confess that of the very many Pasta e Fagioli I have tasted none even came close to a reasonable comparison to this superb dish Italiano. Garnish with grated Parmesan cheese if desired. Have many Chicago hard rolls, red wine, baguettes or garlic bread on hand. BUON APPETITO!
Mint-Cucumber Mojitos
This refreshing version of mint mojitos features a springtime kick of cucumber. We love these at special gatherings and summer barbeques. A pitcher of this can be made a few hours in advance--just add alcohol at serving time.
