i made mushroom and spinach pasta for lunch today. pictured on the right is "natures farm" porcini pappardelle. the center is the creamy sauce made with slow cooked mushrooms, onion and garlic, shiraz wine, fresh oregano, thyme and sage, 35% cream and chopped fresh spinach.
the last shows the finished dish garnished with chopped italian parsley.
in the steamtable waiting for the folks to arrive and
the basil parmesan bread before being sliced.
i reheated the soup and put out the salads from yesterday.
every thursday for quite sometime now the afternoon snack
has been chocolate chip cookies. the folks here never tire
of eating these cookies.
supper tonight was baked split chicken with garlic and herbs.
the fresh herbs are hiding under the chicken and the garlic
rubbed all over the chicken before adding more herbs and paprika.
as you can see i also served roasted creamer potatoes with
corn on the cob and sauteed red cabbage and beets.
for dessert i whipped up a chocolate banana cream pie.
the crust was made from left over crumble. the filling is
packaged cheesecake mix(leftovers from a previous cook)
disguised with fresh banana, dark hot chocolate mix and
chocolate saucefresh banana slices and whipped cream.
just 3 more packages to disguise!
