Meal Six: Cheesy Toasted Ravioli with Pesto

This week featured Cheesy Toasted Ravioli with Pesto - we used Momma Anne's homemade pesto and it was great.  She gave us a little container when we visited in February so we saved it for a special meal. We added some sliced cooked sausage so the carnivores were satisfied and some rosemary rolls completed the meal.  It was very, very tasty and we were lucky enough to have leftovers!

Meal Five: Fajitas

Mexican meals just lend themselves so well to different proteins... it is perfect for a variety of eaters!   We enjoyed creating our perfect fajitas on handmade tortillas from Dory!  WOW - they were great. She also supplied some delish guacamole that we basically devoured before dinner.  I marinated the steak overnight in this marinade and tossed the chicken for a few hours as well. We even had sopaipillas with the tortilla dough.  Fresh fried goodness! Bubbles missed out, as he had a serious case of March Madness and had to be treated downtown with beer and chicken wings.   He is expected to make a full recovery.

Meal Four: Panko Crusted Haddock Sandwhiches

Triumphant return of the biggest winner ("we're all winners!") in the history of Pity Dinner... the Lenten favorite.... Haddock Sandwiches.    Yum. Yum. Yum. Dory produced the best version yet and we all rejoiced.  She even made the aioli earlier in the week, so it was the tastiest ever. As with many great achievements, there are occasional losses.... goodbye dear spoon rest, we will miss you. We have modified the original recipe - we prefer haddock to cod and we prefer this sauce (use regular mayo - it's worth it!).  Ah, Friday fish season...
