Risotto Class 4.28.10

Mixed Greens with Champagne Vinaigrette (not pictured)
Lemon Risotto with Grilled Shrimp and Asparagus
Balsamic Strawberry Shortcake

In this creamy risotto, the fresh lemon was especially good - topped with grilled shrimp and asparagus. We also prepared old fashioned strawberry shortcake's with a sweet-tart glaze made with balsamic vinegar and sugar. The champagne vinaigrette added a touch of elegance to the mixed greens - oh la la - Not to mention it's unique flavor!

Spring Has Sprung Class 4.14.2010

For the Spring Has Sprung class we made Classic Mint Mojito's, a Shrimp and Mango Appetizer & Pasta Primavera - a pasta dish that celebrates spring. We also enjoyed a Banana Bourbon Cake with Bourbon Creme Anglaise- a rich fruit filled cake that is incredibly moist; served with the delicatable Bourbon Sauce - what a treat!

YES! IT'S ALL ABOUT THE PORK!!!

Spinach Salad with Candied Onions
