It was so nice to have Diana and Meghan over for dinner last night. I need to give them HUGE kudos for hanging in there ... Diana had the privilege of entertaining Jack for a full hour so that I could be in the kitchen and get dinner prepared. Meghan had numerous hurdles to leap over in order to get here and she did it!
And Jay ... he was my true knight in shining armour ... picking up last minute ingredients for the meal on his way home from work. The meal would NOT have turned out without his efforts!
On the menu:
We had vegan Caesar salad,
Grilled Vegetable Paninnis,
A side plate of shrimp and
Zucchini chocolate cupcakes with cream cheese icing.
The Caesar salad and cupcakes were from the Rebar cookbook ... the paninni and shrimp recipes were compliments of Giada de Laurentis from the Food Network.
Everything took so long to prepare because it was all made FROM SCRATCH. From the salad croutons to all the dipping sauces to the roasted garlic and roasted peppers. Was it worth it???
