Five All Time Favorite Recipes....

[cjs]

A friend of mine came up with the damndest request - he wants me to send him my five favorite - all time favorites - recipes so he can try them. Can any of you think of anything that would be harder for a cook/foodie to do?????

Don, my friend (BillyJ & Lorraine met him), has just redone a house boat (top to bottom) and installed marble countertops, Wolfe stove, the whole shootin' match, and now he wants to cook!!

So, I'll show you mine, if you show me yours!!

This took a lot of thinking and mentally tasting -

and as is always said, they are in no particular order...

Chez Tom's Breakfast Torte
Blueberry Cream Cheese Muffins
Caviar "Pie"
Cream Cheese Flan (Flan de Queso)
Roquefort Dressing
Bresaola Llayered with 3-Peppercorn Chevre & Huckleberry Puree
Pork Stuffed Poblanos with Walnut Cream Sauce

I know, that's seven, but I couldn't not include any of these....Your turn!!

Oooh, that is a tough one! I think I have it though...

Mushroom Croustades (BHG)
Crispy, Crunchy, Fried Chicken (The Yellow Farmhouse Cookbook)
Flank Steak with/Chimichurri (Gourmet)
Chocolate Fiesta Fantasy Cake (BHG Simply Perfect Chocolate 1998)
Chicken Makhani (Complete Indian Cooking)

Whew! That was hard!

"Cochinita Pibil" - what pray tell is this dish??? And if it's such a great favorite, why have we not heard of it???????
