Easy Lemon Mousse
This lemon mousse recipe is quick and easy to make with lemon curd, whipped cream, and cream cheese. Served with fresh berries and a sprig of mint on top for a gorgeous summer dessert.
Turkish Kebabs
This kebab sandwich is my version of Turkish kebabs, which I made 'off the cuff' after searching unsuccessfully for a recipe online. The original sandwiches are made from meat pressed into a loaf and grilled on a rotating spit. The meat is shaved off as it gets crispy and put into a pita sandwich. My recipe calls for thin slices of meat to be marinated and then broiled to get the same effect without a huge rotating grill. Serve in a warmed pita with goat cheese, tzatziki sauce, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and pepperoncini.
Hot Fudge Sauce
This chocolate sauce is a great hot fudge topping for almost any chocolate dessert. My mom gave me this recipe with a note that said, "Use this sauce over brownies and vanilla ice cream to make a delicious dessert." It was a favorite of mine from college.
