The Gourmet Mama

Is it just me or are the weeks speeding past? It feels like we just celebrated Christmas and it`s already 3 months into the new year! Crazy.

Well, lots of quality recipes out there this week, so let`s take a look. As always, please feel free to leave links to your favorite recipes in the comments.

Looking for a simple idea for breakfast? I love these yummy buttermilk scones! You could add lemon zest, raisins or cinnamon to them, as well.

Here`s a decadent chocolate recipe for all you chocoholics out there . . . Flourless Chocolate Cake. I`m so trying this on my cheat day.

Those of you who have been reading this blog for any amount of time probably realize that I have an unhealthy adoration of chorizos. Which is why this absolutely awesome Chorizo and Potato Frittata is totally jumping onto this week`s menu!

I dare you to try making this super cheesy French Onion Soup without drooling on your computer monitor. It`s the perfect dish to whip up for company or to impress your mother-in-law.

This last one isn`t actually a recipe, but these cupcakes are really beautiful and not difficult to make. If you want to show off your mad decorating skills at the next snack day at your kids` school, I`d check out this post on decorating wedding cupcakes.
