Nags Head Reunion

6/13/17 Having a wonderful visit at Nags Head, NC with my Plymouth High School friends. Tonight I plan to serve dinner to everyone and everyone helped. As dinner preparations were underway, anyone passing through the kitchen ended up with a job! Here is our Menu:

Appetizer by Kay: Tuna Cucumber Swirls
Dinner: Risotto with Italian Sausage, Spinach and Sun Dried Tomatoes
            Arugula and Radicchio Salad with Vinaigrette
             Crostini

Here is Kay's appetizer. We both learned how to strip cucumbers and found spreading the tuna mixture was easier on dry cucumber.
Kay and the Swirls
The Risotto main dish was an success and I sliced and toasted the baguettes prepared in the previous post. While preparing the Vinaigrette, Emily helped drizzle the oil and the dressing emulsified perfectly. I just wished Chef Clark could have seen it!

Love my childhood friends!!
