Italy Tribute Menu

Last night I had a couple of friends over to eat dinner and see my photos and videos of Italy. I wanted to recreate the typical food I had enjoyed in Italy, but scaled back a little to accommodate smaller appetites. Thus there is no Primo course of soup, pasta, or risotto.

L'antipasto

• Bruschetta with tapenade
• Olives
• Caprese salad with home grown basil

Il secondo

• Sauteed pork scallopini served with arugula (lightly dressed)
• Rosemary, olive oil and sea salt potato fries

Il dolce

• Plum-Mascarpone Cheesecake with Ginger Crust

Prosecco and aqua minerale. 

A good time was had by all!
