Everyone has such busy schedules that sometimes the only time to get together is a weeknight, so a little thought has to go into a nice ‘do ahead’ casual meal. In this case, juggling between a bunch of activities (I’m not complaining) but still….
I wanted something that would not suffer by being made ahead and certainly seemed as it just came off the stove.
I mostly got it right, but then I had to try a new dessert and of course the table needed something in the middle because it was so bare.
So, the Menu…..
Hors d’Oeuvres (compliments of our friends)
Chili stuffed Green Olives Wrapped in Bacon
Cream Cheese and Fig Toasts
Appetizer
Beet and Blood Orange Carpaccio
Main Course
Dessert
Peanut Butter an Roasted Banana Pudding
