Pete is an old friend from way, way back; JT has worked with him over the years (that’s how we got to know him). We’ve gotten together sporadically over the years. Pete recently got engaged! And then he had a heart attack. It just got us thinking how precious and short life is. We had them over for a gourmet, but health conscious dinner. Now I usually cook on the healthy side anyway (butter only where it really adds bang for the buck, I trade cream in for Carnation or flavour such as spices etc.) but I am being super careful with this one. I will link recipes where I can, and post them separately if I haven’t already (it’s easier to search that way).
- Hors d’oevres: Spanakopita
- Appetizers: Chilled cucumber soup (small portion) and the famous Deconstructed Caesar Salad
- Pork Medallions with a ‘creamy’ mushroom velouté on cauliflower and celeriac ‘mash’
- Chocolate three ways: Mexican Chocolate Brownie, Chocolate Banana Avocado Ice Cream and a Chocolate Dipped Fresh Fig
I had hoped to post recipes at this time, but my Canon EOS USB cable died, so it will have to wait until I replace it.
