Garlic Bread and Caesar Salad!
Dina said:I'm going with proscuitto wrapped asparagus spears, as Alix suggested, and no longer with the bruschetta since Tiffany will be making pizza (too much bread-I think). I came up with roasted tomato slices, topped with melted mozzarella, EVOO and basil (what's that called anyway?). What do you all think? Should I serve the baby greens salad too, or would that be too much?
I will go with your frutti di bosco tart with fresh berries Bucktom suggested. But I'm certainly not making the tart dough from scratch! I can never do those. And I have tried numerous times, believe me. You think puff pastry would work, or should I get the pie crusts? Thanks for your suggestions ladies.
I'm passing out invitations this weekend. Woohoo! I hope lots of my guests show up. All of you are cordially invited too. If you're interested in ordering online, let me know and I'll pass along the link in which you can order Pampered Chef cookware. March has new items coming!!! I'm excited!!!
Dina said:Mish,
A Pampered Chef party is basically a kitchen show to demonstrate how the cookware and kitchen tools work, recipes are prepared using the cookware, etc.
I am so sick today I may even have to cancel the party for Saturday and skip work tomorrow. Blah! I hate flu season.
buckytom said:ok, on salads, but not just a bowl of greens: fill some leaves of endive, which are like scoops, with goat cheese blended with fresh herbs, like a boursin cheese (or just use boursin) and finely chopped nuts, others with ricotta and chopped prosciutto or sopressatta, still others with cream cheese and sun dried tomatoes. arrange on a plate in concentric rings, sprinkle with fresh cracked black pepper, and drizzle with a young, flavorful evoo.
man, am i getting hungry.
RMS said:I always serve the old stand-bys with pasta, Italian bread and Salad.
Might be boring but it makes a nice meal.
For dessert, How about cookies.
Dina said:I had to cancel the party you all. I had everything bought for the Italian food show. Darn! Anyhow, it won't go to waste at all in this house. I appreciate all the recipes you've provided to go with pasta entrees. I have jotted everything down and will use them in the future. The kitchen show has been postponed until April 1st and I'm assuming that the menu will be different next month. Thank you all very much.
