Yesterday my friend had a Fall theme potluck. I got in the spirit by making Roasted Pear and Cranberry Crostata from the Flour Cookbook. No recipe, buy the book!
Pate Brisee
Roasted pears.
Frangipane.
Cranberries…
So delicious. I have no words. Really, you can never go wrong with the Flour Cookbook. Not only was the dessert stunning to look at but the pear was so soft and lightly sweetened. Melt in your mouth delicious.
Overall, the party was excellent! Let’s just say when your friends with foodies you will never be disappointed at a potluck. There were squash tacos, sweet potato biscuits, pesto pasta, pasta bake, stuffed pepper, salmon dip, roasted broccoli, cauliflower soup, baked brie with jam in puff pastry (so good) and plenty of booze…
Clearly, we hated the food…
And then I rolled home.

my favorite part: “and then I rolled home”
The crostata looks fabulous and so professional! I am very impressed.
And squash tacos? I am intrigued!
They were really good! Can’t go wrong with roasted butternut squash.
not only am i wishing i had been at that party, i am wishing that the party was happening right now because i just finished lunch and that would SO make the perfect afternoon snack. i am very impressed!
That crostata looks amazing! I love pears and cranberries together. This would be perfect for Thanksgiving.
