Dinner
I made dinner this past weekend. I was in one of those “cookin’ up a storm” moods, plus I had my mom over on Saturday night so of course she gets the special treatment!
Saturday: spinach quiche baked in a wholemeal crust with a side salad of fresh greens, dried cranberries and walnuts.
Dessert was a tangerine and strawberry clafoutis. I usually make banana clafoutis so this combo was new for me.
Sunday night I made little spinach salmon cakes with the leftover spinach quiche and buttery mashed po-po’s. The little cakes came out surprisingly moist considering I used a piece of grilled salmon that I mashed up into little bits and LOTS of panko. The potatoes were tasty – for once, I didn’t over salt it and I’m glad I didn’t.
Chris made a chicken roll-up with prosciutto and cheese inside. First he hammered it out with the tenderizer, then carefully rolled it up, then grilled it on the outdoor BBQ before throwing it into the oven to roast a bit. I don’t eat chicken but man, it looked good.
