cb, Nice!
pictures to come... (a neighbor took them and is sending them to me)
My neighbors and I usually take turns at cooking. This Christmas, they are making the Christmas Dinner (today). So I volunteered to do Christmas Eve dinner. It turns out that rather than the 5 that I planned for, we had 12 show up. Fortunately, he told me on Saturday that there would be that many so I had a chance to prepare. Oh, and one person was allergic to wheat so I had to go gluten free for the breads.
Appetizer: Fresh baby spinach salad w/ tomatoes and goat cheese and a basalmic/lemon vinaigrette and white cheddar shortbread
Entree: Pork loin (10#), parmesan risotto and squash/zuccini/roasted red pepper/onion medley
Dessert: Gingerbread cookie with coconut fondant and mint spaghetti (it was supposed to have honey caviar, but with the extra people I went with a honey foam that broke so I didn't serve it).
I'll get the pictures up as soon as she sends them to me.
