Sloane Takes Precautions Against Hell

WWW.CatholicCulture.org is a surprising place for Cafe Drake to be visiting, but Lo' and Behold, they have a great treasure chest of simple recipes appropriate to the religious season. Below is an adaptation of a cheese tart preparation, consumed frequently during Lent by the devout and (temporarily) vegetarian. It's so good we could almost eat it every day for 40 nights. Perfect for a post-baptismal brunch, the tart is excellent in Fall and Winter as well, sided with a cup of rich tomato soup.
