Swedish Cream
This is a dish my sister makes for special occasions. It is not too sweet and it's very rich and creamy. If you like a sweeter dish, double the sugar. This makes for a lovely presentation that looks like you went to a lot of effort but didn't.
Green Tea Shortbread Cookies
Rich, buttery shortbread with the subtle flavor of green tea. Pairs wonderfully with tea or with ice cream for a dessert! Cookies taste better the next day.
Gourmet Chicken Sandwich
Sauteed chicken breasts topped with a mayonnaise/mustard/rosemary spread and graced by 2 slices of garlic rosemary focaccia bread. These sandwiches are great when you want a quick supper, but not something from the freezer. They remind me of an expensive sandwich from an upscale deli. The spread and the chicken can be made in advance, and the chicken can be eaten hot or cold.
