Plum Soup, Cinnamon, Cloves

A chilled fruit soup is a perfect second or third course, or maybe even a starter on its own. Although we've been known to serve this dish in shot glasses, or even white wine glasses, it also works well the old-fashioned way: with a bowl and spoon. In that case, have a baguette at the table, too. And if you're feeling adventurous and have some buttery shortbread on hand, sweeten some plain yogurt with maple syrup and use it to garnish this tasty soup for a different twist on dessert. — Vegetarian Dinner Parties Click Here to See More Soup Recipes

Pork Tenderloin With Warm Plum Salsa

Pork tenderloin is an elegant, simple, and satisfying meal, but the plum salsa really puts this dish over the top. Plums lend themselves for use in a salsa because they don't break down when you cook them. They add a fresh, bright element to the pork by balancing that savory flavor with a little sweet fruit. After it's prepared, this salsa looks absolutely beautiful, and the flavor and color adds tremendously to the appeal of the tender pork. This is a great dish for entertaining because it's low in calories, low in fat, and high in protein without sacrificing flavor. And it is so easy to prepare because the pork is roasted whole and then individually sliced for your guests.
