May W3 - Fruit Stuffed Pork Loin

Stuff anything and you got my attention. Pork is one of my favorite meat.  Madeira wine is one of my favorite sweet wines and while prunes are not one of favorite things, I can totally go gutsy on this one and replace it with other delish stuff - like Oh, I don’t know… apples? Mushrooms? Raisins, the golden kind.  The pork has just become a palate.

May W2 - Parmesan Soufflé Rolled with Greens and Leeks with Red Bell Pepper Sauce

Ok.. I had making souffle in my bucket list for a while now.  I think I’m going to make this and if the Soufflé layer is a hit, I’m marking that off my bucket list.  Who else got gutsy with this one.  I bet (knowing Raymond) this is going to be a good one.

April - W4: Malaysian-Style Mussels

Can you believe that mussels are not one of my favorite seafood staple?  But, this one called out to me, what is the point in living around water and not eating all the offerings of the sea?  How you guys do on this one?

April - W3: Sun-Dried Tomato-Parmesan Crips

Did you have fun cooking these? I’m curious to see who took a creative approach to them, since these were basically more like an appetizer/snack dish than an entree.
