Welcome to my recipe collection.
These recipes offer a delicious mix of new and old world flavors. From the kitchens of my mother and grandmother in Transylvania to the new fusion mixes from my home kitchen in Canada. I have been inspired by the fickle tastes of my children ( vegetarian, pescatarian or whichever way the wind may blow) and my desire to become healthier without compromising taste. I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I have enjoyed writing it. Leave me comments and your favorite recipes!

RUSTIC PLUM TART
1/4 cup sea salt roasted almonds finely ground
1 tsp ground cinnamon
3 pkts Sweet'N Low low calorie sweetener, divided
3 sheet frozen phyllo dough, thawed
3 tbsp nonhydrogenated margarine, melted
1/2 cup (1/2 of 250g tub) Philadelphia Light Cream Cheese Spread
6 fresh plums thinly sliced
1 tsp icing sugar
Heat oven to 400F.
Combine nuts, cinnamon and 1 pkt sweetener (I used Stevia). Place 1 phyllo sheet on work surface; brush with 1/3 of the margarine, then sprincle with 1/3 of the nut mixture. Repeate layers twice; place in 9-inch tart pan. Fold over edges of pastry to form 1-inch high-rim arounde edge of pan.
Mix cream cheese spread and remaining sweetener until well blended; spread onto bottom of crust. (this was the hardest part; I had to use my fingers to do it) Arrange plums in circular pattern over cream cheese mixture. I used a square pan and I used some leftover apples instead of plums.
Bake 20 min. or until pastry is golden brown. Sift sugar over tart. Serve warm or at room temperature.
It was very easy to make and it was delicious. We ate it in a day.
