Veal Chops with Sherry Gastrique and Roasted Peperonata
You may not feel good about eating veal, but this recipe is a good one for those who do. I wouldn't say I feel great about eating baby cows, but they taste so good! My favorite part of this recipe is the roasted pepper peperonata, which is a mix of different colored bell peppers, garlic, white raisins, vinegar, and some spices. That, along with the sherry gastrique, really provides a lot of flavor for these chops. I definitely recommend serving with the polenta, too.

Golden Corn and Saffron Polenta
This is like corn in two different forms, which I think is a wonderful thing. Seasoned with onion, chicken broth, and saffron, this polenta has the added bonus of whole corn kernels. OK, the recipe calls for the kernels to be blended, but I'll confess that I didn't read properly. I really like the whole kernels, but I'm sure it would be good blended as well.

Top-Secret Chocolate Mousse
I think the secret of this mouse is that it doesn't have any dairy if you don't dollop the whipped cream on top. I expected mouse to be full of cream, but this only called for chocolate, eggs, salt, and sugar. The texture when I made it was a bit chunky, so I'm not sure what I did wrong. It still tasted great.
