The fried pears have a buttery and sweet flavor, which taste great with the warm, melted cheese and toasted, crunchy bread.

Lemon Pesto Pasta with Asparagus

We love trying recipes with different types of pasta. This meal uses "bowtie" pasta, and brings out pops of flavor with the pesto, lemon, and balsamic vinegar. The balsamic vinegar is optional, if you don't like balsamic vinegar, but is highly recommended because it mixes so well, and tastes great with the pasta and asparagus. Optionally add your favorite toppings to the pasta.

If you love sweets, this drink is for you. It is a super sweet treat that is thick and very chocolatey, and an idea for using that extra eggnog. This drink has hints of flavor that taste like a brownie. Decadent and rich may also help to describe this hot chocolate. Optionally try with a squirt or dollop of whipped cream on top.
