Saturday evening meal

Saturday night Tim and I had a great meal. Since Tim had to make dessert for his sister's dinner on Sunday, he chose to make an appetizer for this meal and I decided to try some Greek dishes.

Our meal started off with little salmon appetizers. Salmon mixed with cream cheese and a couple of other ingredients. Spread on a tortilla and then rolled up tightly and cut into bite size pieces. We felt as though this was good but needed a touch of something......so Tim will rework this appetizer.


The next course was a Greek salad. Tim is not a fan of tomatoes but since they were cut small he didn't complain. The salad was made better by adding crumbled feta cheese. We felt this simple salad was a keeper.


The main meal was Souviaki. A Greek syled grilled entree made with pork tenderloin that has been marinated in lemon juice, soy sauce, garlic and oregano. Very tender and flavorful.



Naturally our meal would not be complete without dessert. This dessert was a slice of chocolate bundt cake made with pudding, sour cream, coffee liqueur and chocolate chips...... Sooooo good. Thankfully we were able to slice the cake into serving sizes and freeze for another time. I think this cake on the counter would be too tempting to over eat.



Next Saturday we will start a theme night. We'll have to coordinate all parts of the meal with music, wine etc.

All recipes will be on the recipe blog sometime this week.
