Pasta Isabarte
My husband couldn't decide between four and four and a half stars on this one, but I made significant variations, so I didn't feel comfortable giving it a five. I roasted the peppers and onions before adding, used two green and one red bell pepper, used green olives instead of black (what I had). I also mixed in some of the cheese before topping. Used italian seasoning instead of oregano (was out of oregano). Next time will add fresh garlic and maybe some fresh herbs. Baked in a large rectangular pyrex glass dish for much less time. I also used 4 hard boiled eggs. HOW TO ROAST BELL PEPPERS: Cut around the outside of the pepper so that you have 4 or 5 large pieces of pepper. Place the pepper slices, flesh side down, on a foil lined baking sheet. Broil until blackened. Place in plastic bag or sealed glass container for ten minutes to steam. Remove skins and chop before adding to dish. This is a great substitute if you don't want to buy an expensive can of roasted red peppers for another recipe.

Cheddar Chipotle Bread on a Pizza Stone
Used 2/3 cup of chipotle pepper puree with the seeds (I just chopped up the peppers myself). I used mild cheeses b/c that's what I had, but it was still amazing. Made it in the kitchen aide with the dough hook for the most part, although I had to pull it out to knead in some of the flour that would not incorporate. It is a MESSY dough, but so worth it. Baked to an internal temp of 190 degrees. Covered with foil after ten minutes to prevent over-browning. Even though my friends know I love to bake, everyone at my church community group thought I had purchased this at a bakery. It looked and tasted amazing, although you might leave out the seeds if you don't like REALLY spicy bread.

Frozen Caramel Latte
I made fresh whipped cream: 1 cup whipping cream, 1 tsp almond extract, 1 tbsp confectioners sugar. Whip until stiff peaks form, adding sugar and extract just before peaks. Phenomenal. Served it to high schoolers who love Starbucks and they raved. I also don't have an espresso machine so I just made really strong coffee.
