Instead of going to the mansion, I’ve arranged to fly you and all of the other Jellies out to California to spend the weekend feasting in the dining room of the Ahwahnee Hotel at Yosemite
I am in charge of the menu, but if any of the other Jellies want to help and give me some suggestions I’m sure Addy would love it.
For appetizers I’m going to serve something like a salad with pepperoncinis and mixed Greek olives, but with the addition of Pickled Red Onions with Lime and Marinated Shiitake Mushrooms and Lemon Marinated Baby Mozzarella Balls
And since we are in California, I was able to find some fresh peas to make this yummy Fresh Pea Salad with Dates, Serrano Chile and Pumpkin Seeds
Of course we’ll want some soup, so how about this Wheatberry,Garlic, Kale, Shiitake Mushroom and Peas Soup?
I have to ask you one question, though How do you like your nuts? Hopefully you will approve of These Nuts
For one of the entrees I’ve chosen Vegetarian Spinach and Mushroom Enchiladas and Vegetarian Spanish Rice with a side of homemade Hopi Blue Corn Tortillas and Tomatillo Salsa
After the Sundried Tomatoes Demonstration I will be making a Sundried Tomato, Mushroom and Asparagus Tart
I thought I’d do a slightly different take on stir fried tofu, so I’m making Thai Marinated Tofu Skewers with Peanut Butter and Coconut Milk and serving that along side of Ginger Almond Rice Noodles with Pineapple
And just for the heck of it, we’re all going to wear lilac colored shirts with green plaid boxers!
Enjoy friend : )
