Scalloped Potatoes

Ingredients

4 large Idaho potatoes, peeled, sliced into 1 /4-inch thick discs

1 1/2 tsp Salt

1 tsp Black pepper

2 cups Heavy cream

1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated

2 Tbsp Parsley, fresh chopped

1 1/2 cups Sharp cheddar cheese, grated

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Place sliced potatoes in a medium-sized saucepot and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Turn off the heat and let potatoes sit in water five minutes. Drain thoroughly.

Combine cream, parmesan, and parsley. Separately, combine the salt and pepper. Lightly grease a two-quart Pyrex baking dish. Arrange one layer of potatoes. Sprinkle with 1 /3 of the salt and pepper mixture, then ladle 1 /3 of the cream mixture over potatoes. Finally, sprinkle 1 /3 of the grated cheddar. Repeat process two more times, but leave cheddar off the final layer.

Bake 35 minutes. Remove and top with the remaining cheddar. Return to the oven for 10 more minutes. Remove and serve. Yield: eight servings

Honey Bundt Cake

This bundt cake brings back memories of family gatherings on Bellewood Drive where sweets were as much a part of the celebration as the presents under the tree. The warm notes of cinnamon and honey make it a natural fit for holiday mornings or as the perfect finish to a Christmas feast. The pomegranate glaze adds a bright, tart finish that keeps things interesting. Make sure to grease every nook and cranny of your bundt pan thoroughly. Use butter and dust with flour for a clean release. Also, letting the cake cool for a solid twenty minutes before flipping is key to avoiding a sticky mess.
