Food, Food, Food!

I've had a chance to sample a few more of the June MS Living recipes and here are the results:

Chive Omelet w/ Chanterelles
Rating: 8
Tweaks: I went to three grocery stores and couldn't find chanterelle mushrooms. I ended up buying dried chanterelles and re-hydrating them - which actually seemed to work! I also substituted sour cream for the creme fraiche. 
Comments: Loved this twist on a traditional omelet. At first I was leery about using sour cream as the filling in this omelet but I'm so glad I went with it. It was absolutely delish!

Strawberries w/ Vanilla Syrup
Rating: 7
Comments: These berries are actually spicy due to crushed peppercorns and I loved the combination of spiciness with the sweetness of the berries. This is one super-light summer desert that I will most definitely be serving again!
