Another winner dinner
Before my daughter and I returned home from her doctors visit, we went to Fairway to pick something up for dinner. My daughter was able to wheel the wagon in Fairway which was quite the accomplishment for her. I wanted to make her a celebratory dinner. I asked her what she was in the mood for and she told me steak. I found great strip steak and I decided to grill before the rain, again. I also picked up zucchini and beautiful heirloom tomatoes that were on sale. I bought Fairway bread that was also on sale. My daughter wanted pasta and I picked up a bottle of Fairway marinara sauce. Their sauce is a bit pricy but very good. I must say that when Fairway has a sale, nobody can beat them. They sell excellent products for very competitive prices. After my shopping spree at Fairway the weather turned a bit chilly, but not chilly enough to prevent me from making a BBQ. I just oiled, salted and peppered the steak. I made oven roasted zucchini. Again I just used EVOO, salt and pepper. Instead of the pasta, I made bruschetta and tomato salad. I cut up the heirloom tomatoes and tossed them with EVOO, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, salt and pepper. I let them marinate while I finished making dinner. I put the zucchini in the oven to roast.I prepared the garlic for the bruschetta. I fired up the BBQ and grilled the steak. When the steak was almost ready I grilled the bread which I lightly brushed with EVOO. Once the bread was grilled I rubbed it with a clove of garlic and topped it with the heirloom tomato salad. I served my daughter dinner and she loved it. The missing pasta was not missed at all. The bruschetta and heirloom tomato salad was filling, delicious and nutritious. I must reiterate simply food is the best food. The recipes are posted on the website in bonappetitmomrecipes. Tonight is the roast beef that I remembered to finally take out of the freezer, I hope. Stay safe my fans and Bon Appetit.
