Date@Home

We got the chance to enjoy an evening without the kids (thank you Dave and Kaye!) and rather than go out to eat I decided to indulge myself in some quality time with my kitchen and prepare a little Italian feast. It was so much fun I had to document it!



Appetizer: Tomato-Basil Bruchetta



Main Course: Bleu Cheese and Bacon Stuffed Chicken Breast, Bow-Tie Pasta with Garlic and Clarified Butter Wine Sauce, and Sauteed Veggies with Shallots (the beautiful multi-colored pasta was a gift from my friend Rebekah from her trip to Italy - I've been saving it for a special occasion!).



Dessert: Tiramisu (I actually picked this up at Safeway rather than make an entire dessert just for two people, but I had fun plating it anyway)


I think we're on to something here... this entire meal cost about $6 per person and it was scrumptious. So I'm starting a new trend - date@home!
