Meals from March 2005

February 2005 | April 2005

2005-03-05 A Friendly Game of Spades

Tonight, we continue a little family grudge match. This particular grudge has hung over since New Year’s Eve. It’s spades. Sarah and Robin vs. Eric and Chris. But first, we feast.

Spicy Hot Crab Dip , Assorted Grilled Pizzas (toppings included proscuitto, sausage, artichokes, mushrooms, peppers, fresh mozzarella, and sun-dried tomato pesto) , Brownies (provided by Sarah) , Vodka Martini , Cosmopolitan , Beer , Wine

2005-03-09 Very Cheap, Very Good Calzones

As far as we are concerned, this was a perfect meal. It was delicious, filling, involved very little clean-up, and it was darn cheap.

Whole Wheat Calzones , Roasted Asparagus

2005-03-14 Buffalo Chicken Dinner

We transform our dinner table into a greasy spoon. A greasy spoon with crispy, juicy, hot buffalo-style chicken. And fries. Of course there were fries.

Chipotle Buffalo-Style Chicken , Cole Slaw , French Fries leftover from TGI Friday’s

2005-03-19 Mom's Puttanesca

We had planned this meal as a simple yet hearty ending to the week. Things changed a little when our son got sick yesterday. It ended up being quick and satisfying for the healthy among us. In other words, tonight’s dinner is nothing, if not versatile.

Pasta Puttanesca , Peas , Mesclun Salad topped with Bacon-wrapped Barbecue Scallops (leftover Henry’s Bistro)

2005-03-20 Pancake Dinner for Erin

The first day of spring is pretty miserable. Rainy all day. Even some thunder. Happily there is Sunday dinner. A dinner made that much better by a visit from Erin.

Chocolate Chip Pancakes , Mini Frittatas , Roasted Red Potatoes

2005-03-31 Soup For the Sick

Chris came down with the flu on Easter. He made it to work yesterday and today, but is still not feeling all that well. To help speed his transition back to health, we enjoy some soup for dinner.

Baked Potato Soup , Ciabatta Bread
