I am very much into cooking and tonight we're having a dinner guest (our next-door neighbor). What to do??? I am a vegetarian. Do I go out and buy some sort of chicken or beef for the guest?
I struggled with this all day. Then it was crunch time. Make the decision. Neighbor knows I'm a vegetarian; neighbor is not a fussy eater. Neighbor is still a guest - but it's my freaking next door neighbor, who knows us like we're family!!!
We went vegetarian. Butternut and acorn squash (a blend), peeled, boiled, and mashed with butter and salt. Such beautiful food needs nothing more.
A simple salad - romaine, European cucumber and grape tomato.
For the main course - brown rice (with butter and salt, natch) - with canned cannelini beans, Ro-Tel tomatoes with chiles, and a can of fire roasted tomatoes with garlic. The chef's sample was mighty tasty.
Neighbor is bringing muscato wine and 'a surprise'. Hmmm. More on that tomorrow...
