Hi Cindy, I will have to admit something quite embarrassing, the tart is my favorite part of any tart, although I am quite smitten with anything custardy.

I was just thinking about making a pie or tartlette! I got my mini tartlette set for a while but haven’t get a chance to use it yet!

Since moving to Portugal, I’ve had to change quite a few things about the way we live that is more earth friendly including food. I think the backwards version of your first attempt to vegetarian-ize your family is a great way to do it rather than cold turkey! We’ll be practicing this felxitarianism more often once our garden starts producing and our chickens start laying :)

Hi Jamie, isn’t flexitarian a great word? I realized that veggies should be more than an afterthought to a meal, while I like to sink my teeth into something that is protein (meat) I like that we don’t have to fit into one or the other being a flexitarian. Your sons response take me back to that old Wendy’s Commercial “Where’s the Beef”, or was it “Where’s the meat”? With that adorable gregarious granny.

I love the idea of being a flexitarian (great word). This reminds me of a short discussion with my son (who is 21) the other day when he got upset that there was nothing to make a meal with in the fridge. I pointed out salad, pasta, etc and he said “No! Protein! There is no protein! I need a burger or chicken or slice of meat or something!” Wow! I think it was then I realized that I needed to start cooking more vegetarian dishes (complete dishes) rather than always just having veg as a side dish. That said, these tartlets are similar to what I just baked and posted on my blog although different enough that I want to now make these today. They are truly beautiful!
