Summmer Recipe: Croque-Monsieur

{Found all over France today, the Croque Monsieur - casually referred to as a Croque - has as many recipes and variations as it has cooks. The crunchy sandwich is served as an appetizer, snack, or casual meal.}

I made these for dinner last night to the joy of the husband and kiddos. I usually serve this over a bed of fresh Spring Greens which makes it the perfect summer meal.

{Recipe Croque-Monsieur}

Simple dessert

My boys were super excited when I whipped up these little pastries after dinner last night. They were very easy to make and perfect for a summer night. I just took puff pastry shells and baked according to the directions. Then I filled them with a soft,spreadable cheese that I added a little honey to for a touch of sweetness. Topped with fresh raspberries and a little sprinkle of natural sugar.
