Mission for Sangria

After dinner we met friends: Johnny, Ashley, and Chait (Sarah), for a drink downtown.  We went to Marcella’s, a great Cameron Mitchell Italian restaurant, located in the Short North.  We had two pitchers of white sangria – sorry no pictures – which was wonderful!  Sweet, fruity and easy to drink.  I am looking for a good sangria recipe for an upcoming party: red and white.  Does anyone have one they love?!  Please let me know if you do!

Grilled Stromboli

Tonight for dinner, the host – Brady decided to make Stromboli on the grill! He was planning ahead this morning when he took out the semi-healthy white bread dough from the freezer. Throughout the day it grew and grew and by the time he got home, it was ready to use! These were not your average tomato-cheese Stromboli. They included many delicious and fresh ingredients! Here is what he did:

An Asian Feast

I can’t believe it is already 10:00pm! This day has flown by! By the time my mom headed for Chagrin Falls and Brady got home from basketball – it was already 8:00pm. I had started marinating our salmon but that was it. I quickly threw the rest of our dinner together and it was great – done in less than 30min. Watch out Rachel Ray!!

Our Asian Feast included: Garlic-Ginger Grilled Salmon on the grill, Quinoa and fresh veggie stir-fry.

To make the egg salad I…

1.  Chopped up twice as many egg whites as yolks

2. Added 1 T. of light miracle whip

3. Sprinkled it heavily with salt and pepper

4. Added 2 T. of Trader Joe’s Artichoke
