This past Saturday night some friends and I, and hopefully a lot of you out there, took part in earth hour, where between 8:30 pm and 9:30 pm we turned off all lights, tv’s, computers, etc…and enjoyed a lovely candle lit dinner.
As we usually like to make our dinners have a bit of a theme (last month’s French night for instance) this time we created a contemporary North American night of dining. A delicious turkey roll that was kind of a made up recipe, which involved stuffing a large turkey breast with sauted veggies, Italian sausage and sage and then roasted to perfection, simple garlic smashed potatoes (SMASHED not mashed!), my first foray into baked spinach (recipe found
here ).
For dessert classic strawberry shortcake with a lemon pound cake base (recipe
here) perfectly complimented by some
Fruli ! All enjoyed basked in the light of flickering candles.
Cheers to the earth! xo J
