Blueberry Muffin Tops with a Cheesecake Drizzle

The feedback I've received on these blueberry muffin tops is universal. "These were amazing!" "These were delicious!" "How did you do this?" "Can I have the recipe?"

These blueberry muffin tops are from a recipe from a new book by Lisa Huff from the blog, Snappy Gourmet.

Potato and Leek Pizza

This potato and leek pizza reminds me of the crusty top of a scalloped potato casserole placed on a thin crispy pizza crust.

This potato and leek pizza starts with an easy no knead crust. I mixed the dough around eight o'clock at night, and made the pizzas around noon the next day. It's a totally flexible dough. Once your dough has risen, you can shape it into rounds, wrap it, and refrigerate it for up to three days.

Zucchini Brownies

These zucchini brownies are so dense and chocolatey, and pretty much hide the fact that there are veggies in there.

These fudge-like brownies include a zucchini puree, along with Dutch process cocoa, espresso powder, and bittersweet chocolate chips.

Pea Soup Andersen's Split Pea Soup {Copycat}

This Copycat Pea Soup Andersen's Split Pea Soup is both filling and nutritious.

This month, the members of our little Soup Saturday group were charged with posting soup recipes that represent our state or region. I'm sure this is easier for folks from any place but California.

Crab Macaroni and Cheese

This crab macaroni and cheese recipe takes a favorite comfort food and turns it into a fabulous elegant meal.

Make this crab macaroni and cheese for dinner, and all you'd need is a green salad to go with it for a complete meal.

Chocolate Yogurt Snack Cakes

These Chocolate Yogurt Snack Cakes are so light, tender, and not overly sweet. They would even be appropriate for breakfast topped with whipped cream and fresh raspberries.

They are excellent with coffee or a cold glass of milk.

I topped these chocolate yogurt snack cakes with some sifted powdered sugar, which I think made them really pretty.

Vietnamese-Style Shrimp Cocktail

This Vietnamese-Style Shrimp Cocktail is so fresh and spicy.

This Vietnamese-style shrimp cocktail is easy to put together, and it's wonderful as an appetizer or first course for a dinner party. I love how it's loaded with fresh vegetables.
