Creole Okra
A yummy vegetarian side dish, easy to make. Taste holds up for leftovers. The use of frozen okra makes this a year-round favorite in our family.
Pecan Cajun Cake
Great for a Mardi Gras-themed dinner party! I was a member of the Barksdale AFB Officers' Wive's gourmet club. This cake was made for one of our luncheons. Guaranteed Cajun!
Skinny Foster
A lighter version of the traditional dessert. Also yummy served over pancakes instead of syrup.
Chiacchiere with Sanguinaccio
'Chiacchiere' is a dessert that is fried and sprinkled with confectioners' sugar and served with sanguinaccio. It is a traditional Italian dessert in the region of Campagnia, served during 'carnevale' or as we say Mardi Gras. It is served with 'sanguinaccio' a chocolate sauce used for dipping the 'chiacchiere'. Years ago the sanguinaccio was made with chocolate and pig's blood, but now the use of the blood has been banned due to health concerns, but in small villages across Italy it is still used.
Bananas Foster Pudding
Bread, bananas, banana liqueur, cream and pecans are the featured ingredients in this slowly baked bread pudding spiced with cinnamon.
Pig Picking Cake III
This is my daughters favorite. It is an easy mandarin orange cake with pineapple, nuts, pudding and whipped topping. Whip one up and it's pig-out time!
King Cake Cupcakes
These king cake cupcakes are less yeasty and more cake-like than the cake. They get you the vanilla-nutmeg-lemon-buttermilk flavor and fun colors of a traditional king cake — without waiting around for a yeasted dough to rise.
Chef John's Bananas Foster
When you think of show-stopping, special-occasion desserts, you usually don't think simple and fast, but that's the case with bananas Foster. This delicious New Orleans classic only has a few ingredients and takes just minutes to make. Except for the folks that burn their houses down, everybody loves this recipe.
King Cake
This a sweet bread that is made during Mardi Gras in New Orleans. It has a cream cheese filling and a simple glaze. A tiny plastic baby baked into the bread and will bring good luck to whoever finds it.
Cajun Cake
This Cajun dessert was born on the bayou. It has a caramel-pecan sauce that soaks into the cake.
King Cake with Cream Cheese Filling
This recipe for king cake with cream cheese filling is, hands down, the best I've ever eaten. It's a combination of several recipes, not too sweet and not too bready, with a rich, tender crumb and the traditional lemon and nutmeg flavors of a genuine NOLA king cake. It's great with coffee and best eaten the same day but pretty darn good the day after (if there are leftovers!). Enjoy, y'all!
Cajun Ponchartrain Sauce
My take on the Ponchartrain sauce served at a popular seafood restaurant chain in my town. Although I prefer snapper, it may be ladled over any grilled, blackened, steamed, or pan fried fish. Very elegant and easy! Great idea for a romantic candlelight dinner for two.
