Garlic Cheese Bread

1 ½ cups mayonnaise
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
¾ cup thinly sliced green onions with tops
3 garlic cloves, minced
¼ teaspoon dried lavender
1 loaf Italian bread

Mix mayonnaise, cheese, onions, garlic, and lavender.  Slice loaf into thin slices.  Spread mixture on bread.  Place bread on cookie sheet and broil until cheese is melted and bubbly.

Peppered Flounder with Mushrooms

2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
2 Tablespoons butter
2 garlic cloves, minced
4 Flounder fillets
¼ teaspoon lavender lemon pepper
¼ teaspoon paprika
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 medium tomato, chopped
2 green onions, thinly sliced

In a large skillet, sauté mushrooms in butter until tender.  Add garlic; sauté one minute longer.  Place fillets over mushrooms.  Sprinkle with lavender lemon pepper, paprika, and cayenne pepper.

Cover and cook over medium heat for 5-10 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.  Sprinkle with tomato and green onion.

Lavender Steak

1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon fresh pepper
1 teaspoon ground fennel

2 rib eye steaks

2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 Tablespoon butter

1 Tablespoon A-1 steak sauce

1/2 teaspoon dried lavender

Mix salt, pepper and fennel and rub on both sides of steaks. Heat oil in a cast iron skillet until very hot. Add steaks; cook 5 to 7 minutes per side for medium, 3 to 5 minutes for rare. Remove from heat. Combine remaining ingredients and spread on top. Cover and let rest 5 minutes before serving
.

Roasted Asparagus

1 lb. fresh asparagus
1 ½ Tablespoons olive oil

Fresh ground Lavender Salt

Fresh ground black pepper

 

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.  Cut off the woody bottom part of the asparagus spears and discard.

 

Place asparagus on baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil.  Sprinkle with fresh ground lavender salt and pepper.  Work the asparagus to evenly coat with oil and salt.

 

Roast for 10-15 minutes, depending on the thickness of your stalks.  The tips of the spears will get brown and crunchy.  They are great plain or dip them!

Vanilla Ice Cream with Kentucky Bourbon Sauce

1 cup brown sugar

1 cup white sugar

1 cup water

1 lemon, juiced

1 orange rind and 1 lemon rind

1 cup strawberry lavender jam

1 cup pecans

½-1 cup Kentucky Bourbon

 

Cook the first three ingredients in a saucepan until sugars are completely dissolved.  Remove from heat.  Grate the rind of the orange and lemon and add to mixture.  Add strawberry lavender jam, lemon juice, pecans, and bourbon.  Even better when refrigerated and allowed to blend!  Warm before serving over vanilla ice cream.
