No cocktails or wine today.  I am working on a new recipe for chocolate crème brulee (without the brulee, so I guess it would be a chocolate pot de crème) using cayenne, cinnamon, and dark chocolate (cocoa).   It kind of reminds me of a mole sauce.  A 4 oz serving is comparable to one egg yolk and 2 oz of heavy cream.  If that is the only dairy for the day, that’s not bad!  And since crème brulee is not something one would eat every day, even better.  Would like to know what you think?


Menu for Day 6

Breakfast:  Coffee black with cinnamon, scrambled eggs and whole grain toast  (boring, but traditional breakfast foods are all taboo).
Lunch:  chargrilled chicken breast, pickled red onion, on mixed greens and tomatoes,  oil and vinegar
Dinner:  Spinach stuffed flounder, cucumber salsa, brown rice, wedge of iceberg lettuce with basil green goddess dressing

Buon Appetito, Angela B

P.S.  Will let you know tomorrow how the brulee came out!
