Cream of Mushroom Barley Soup. I used both fresh and dried mushrooms. It also has dry sherry in it. I used mascarpone instead of sour cream.
Thinly sliced ham on a baguette. I made Thousand Island dressing to use instead of mayonnaise.
I found the recipe in my Eating Well cookbook, but I found they had it posted at their web site, too.

Dessert is hot wild orange tea with fig-almond biscotti.

(39,010 posts)We had Sunday dinner w/ Dad & Sis. She made a pot roast w/ all the proper stuff: potatoes, carrots and green beans. She also made a lovely coleslaw.
Dessert was my sour orange pie. The verdict. It was good. I don't think I would make the pie for myself again w/o tweaking the recipe a bit. It was a lot more sour than it was orange. I think I would omit the lemon zest from the recipe or exchange it for one more tablespoon of orange zest. I also think I would make my whipped cream a little sweeter than I normally do.
It's not a bad pie. The one I made probably tastes the way it's supposed to taste. I would just prefer more orange flavor.
