We've been talking about starting a new tradition (to add to the dozens we have already: Puyallup Fair, Sunriver, Chelanigans, Pumpkin Patch) and we finally made it happen: Cooking Club. Dinner Party? Grub Club? We still haven't settled on a name quite yet, but we would welcome ideas!Basically, we rotate hosts, who then picks a food theme and we all bring a dish that corresponds. Maddie so graciously offered to host last weekend and picked "brunch for dinner" as her theme. Cha-CHING! I love brunch food. On the mouth-watering menu? Well, prepare yourself to get hungry:
- Pomegranate mimosas, with prosecco, pomegranate seeds and juice - Liz
- Balsamic-marinated strawberries - Liz
- Monkey Bread - Stephanie
- Eggs Benedict - Maddie
- Fruit Salad - Maddie
- Spinach, bacon and more good stuff quiche - Autumn
- Lemon and blueberry coffee cake, topped with ice cream - Erin
- Potato pancakes - Lizzie
- Egg bake with sausage, onions and peppers - Petes (can't find the recipe I adapted!)
I left 9 pounds heavier, but it was totally worth it. Any ideas for the next theme?
Herk,
