Delightful Mondays: Simple Summer Recipes

Posted on June 28, 2010
delightful mondays :: boiled potatoes with greek yogourt :: striped ice cream cake

Since we are a few days from a National holiday, I thought you would appreciate two recipes that would be perfect for your celebrations.

+ From Bea of La Tartine Gourmande, I suggest her Pommes de terre en robe des champs with yogurt sauce. She adapted her French rustic recipe to what is available in North America.

+ Serve an homemade striped ice cream cake for dessert. On Martha Stewart Living, they suggested to bake an angel food cake in a sheet pan,  and cut it in half.  Sandwich starting from the top a thiner layer of peach sorbet, a thicker layer of raspberry sorbet, a layer of vanilla ice cream and finish with a thin layer of blueberry jam.
