I thought I would post recipes once in a while that were easy but could satisfy our craving for chocolate - this sounds pretty tasty.
13 ounces bitter or semisweet chocolate
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 large egg yolks
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
2 tablespoons superfine sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
In a microwave safe bowl, combine the chopped chocolate and the butter. Heat in the microwave until melted, about 35 seconds depending on your microwave, and stir to melt completely.

On Saturday night I was catering a dinner party that my mom was hosting. She doesn't cook so I was doing it all on Saturday. I wanted to make the chocolate puds I saw featured here but I was in a rush to get the groceries when I realized I would have to convert the measurements.

Yesterday I made mom some of these delicious Apple Fritters.
She loved them just as much as I did and it was the very first time I have ever made them!
Their like an apple version of french toast, but better.

Here's my favorite fudge recipe. I cannot eat it anymore (because it has got too much sugar for my system) but I can attest to the fact that it delicious as three years ago I made it and umm...ate all 4 pounds myself. Bad wackdoodle bad!

I've been trying to incorporate more fish into my dinner time plans (I've heard it's good for migraines, plus just plain good for you), so last night I decided to take a different approach in how to cook it. Lately, I've been all about salmon, but we've just been marinating it overnight and then grilling it. Which, by the way, is delicious and quick, but still, I wanted something a little different and where I'm less likely to burn myself.

This recipe really stuck out in my mind for one particular reason: YOU DON'T HAVE TO BROWN THE MEAT! (Although if you're vegetarian you could very easily just leave it out and it would still be delicious.)
And thank goodness for that. I use my slow cooker because I love the idea of dumping everything in there in the morning and coming home at night and dinner is just sitting there, waiting for me, with tempting smells wafting through the house.

Sometimes a recipe can be too obvious and takes a special kitchen fairy to think of it. (No, I'm not referring to myself!) Many of us like quick and easy recipes that contain items we most likely already have in our kitchens. This is a quick and fabulous meal that anyone can make.

Personally, I think that paella is one of the best dishes around, even though it's something that I don't often make. It's great because of the flavors in it and the fact that whether you love chicken, sausage, or shimp, there's something in this dish for you!
For those of you unfamiliar with the dish, it's a staple in Spain and my first introduction was indeed in a high school Spanish class.
