Pavlova and Berry Compote
How about a crispy meringue layer cake, stuffed with blackberry and dried cherry compote and gussied up with coconut whipped cream? It could be sanctioned, if you either left off the coconut whipped cream or seriously limited it ... your choice! Either way ~ it's a gorgeous cake with lots of great flavor and fun, won't last long!
Tropical Fruit Salad
Tropical Fruit Salad is a great way to enjoy the sweetness of fruit and have a beautiful dessert after a perfectly sanctioned meal! I made this one a little extra special by taking some extra time and cutting the fruit into an unusual presentation. It was fun and made for a much more elegant dessert.
Caramelized Onions
Caramelized Onions are an amazing element to many dishes. They can be eaten as a side dish all by themselves or used as an important component in a more substantial dish, like Onion Soup or as a base for the gravy that is used for the Salisbury Steak.
