I hosted a “diet” pot luck lunch today. Everyone one who came brought a great low fat, low calorie dish to share. For once, it was nice to throw a party where I was not running around like a nutter trying to get all the food out, HOT and not overcooked. I could get use to this whole pot luck thing.
I made “Enchalasagna”. I was going to make enchiladas but the corn shells were dry and breaking when I rolled them. So I laid them flat and layered like lasagna, it all goes to the same spot anyhow. I mean, aren’t stuffed shells a different shape of lasagna?
We had a really nice time and it was fun to taste other peoples dishes. Our menu included:
Salad with pear and danish blue cheese tossed with a Dijon vinaigrette
Zucchini Pancakes
Mexican Pasta
Enchalasagna
Banana Bran Muffins
Veggie Quiche
Watermelon;
Philo mouse cups
banana bread
Cappuccino Angle food cake with whipped cream and strawberries
Truth be told, I threw this on to go walk the dog before everyone arrived. I was going to change into a sundress but I just didn’t feel like it. Eh, its Sunday, at least I showered and I’m not wearing sweats.
Funday Sunday ended with a long walk to the lake and back with pooches. It was the perfect way to burn off all those calories I ate today. Addison is now exhausted.
