Angel Hair Nests with Olive Eggs

Angel Hair Nests with Olive "Eggs"

Perfect for spring, this easy and delicious recipe makes a great appetizer, side dish, or entree and will add a bit of whimsy to your spring table. And all in just about 15 minutes total time!





Cantaloupe, Bacon, Raisin, and Port Salad

Sometimes desperation causes the best recipes to be created. This recipe is a definite case in point when I was short on time and ingredients and threw together a few staples I always have on hand with some perfectly ripe cantaloupe. The results were wonderful and it has become a favorite recipe.

1/2 cup tawny or ruby port
1/2 cup golden raisins
1 medium ripe cantaloupe
6 slices cooked crumbled bacon

Place the raisins in the port and let them macerate while you prepare the cantaloupe. Peel, seed, and melon ball or cube the cantaloupe. Toss the melon with the bacon and port/raisin mixture. Serve immediately at room temperature.

Makes 6 servings.

Preparation Time: 10 minutes
