Asparagus, Peas And Egg Masala
I love it that we are introduced to so many varieties of produce here, some familiar and some not so familiar ones. The end of winter is always a welcome sign.

Single-Serve Baked Eggs & Potatoes (Eggs In Pot Or Oeufs En Cocotte)
Good things do come in small packages. This is especially true when it comes to food and food presentation (think cupcakes, cake pops or meringue cookies). But why limit yourself to sweet treats?
