Afternoon Lunch


Hello Everyone,

I hope all is well. Recently, my husband and I went to the farmers market to stock up on groceries. The next day we both had the day off, which is very rare. So, being the chefs we are with a day off and refrigerator full of groceries what do we do? Cook! We had a friend to come over to enjoy the food we ( my husband) prepared. 

First course, was a capreses salad with tomatoes, basil, mozzarella, and he added slices of salami. He drizzled this with a little olive oil and sprinkled salt and pepper. 

For the second course, we had a beef and rice noodle bowl. He took thinly sliced ribeye, scallions, Swiss chard, and Shitaki mushrooms and sauté them and added chicken broth. He roasted some garlic and thinly sliced them and add them to the mixture. Lastly, he added the rice noodles. It was so deliscous. 

For the drink, we had my husband favorite  whiskey sours.  These are so easy and so good. They taste like a grown up lemonade. Here is the recipe below.

3/4 cup of your favorite whiskey
1/2 cup of fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup of fresh lime juice 
2/3 cup of Simple syrup 
Maraschino Cherries

Hope you enjoyed this post.


XOXO
