SPICY OVEN-ROASTED PLUMS



Spicy Oven-Roasted Plums image

Several years ago I was looking for a recipe to take advantage of our bumper crop of plums, and came across a recipe similar to this. After tweaking a bit, I have come up with a very versatile version that my family and friends love. Season with ground white pepper and use it as a side dish for pork or chicken. Sprinkle with toasted almonds and spoon it over vanilla bean ice cream, angel food, or pound cake for dessert! Play around with the spice combination by adding cloves, allspice, or cayenne. Be adventurous!

PROSCIUTTO AND PARMESAN PUFF PASTRY



Prosciutto and Parmesan Puff Pastry image

These are quick and easy hors d'oeuvres. I'm going to serve them with a glass of prosecco to guests before the big Thanksgiving meal because they can be made up to 2 days ahead and are light enough to not kill appetites. This is the recipe as printed in either Bon Appetit or Cooking Light (sorry, can't remember). The puff pastry here in Italy is a different size so mine made about 60 little one-bites.
