Food Love :: Braciole!!


This one's a favorite among my freezer meal crowd and a real family pleaser in
our house.  It's easy to prepare with a super quick prep time and a fix it and forget it cooking style.
Made with flank or skirt steak and incredibly tender thanks to the slow cook time.
I've listed the recipe below .. enjoy!

Braciole

Ingredients:
1 cup parmesean cheese grated
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
2tbsp chopped parsley
1 garlic clove minced
4tbsp olive oil
3 1/4 cups marinara sauce
salt/pepper to taste
1 1/2 lb flank or skirt steak

Directions:
Mix the first 4 ingredients.  Add olive oil and set aside.
Sprinkle steak with salt and pepper.  Lay out steak and spread the breadcrumb
mixture over the top then roll the meat and tie with cooking twine.
In a hot pan, quickly brown the meat on all sides.  Place the meat in an over safe dish
and cover with the marinara sauce.  Cover the dish with foil and cook in a 
350 degree oven for approximately 1 1/2 hours.  Remove from the oven and
let it rest.  Remove the twine, slice and serve!

Party Inspiration :: Cocktail Party


It's been a little busy around here lately with a super fun 4th of July getaway and a
couple of parties in the works too!  I'm working on an early retirement party
for a good friends hubby (more on that coming soon) and recently was asked to help
with one of my favorite kinds of parties to plan  ... the cocktail party!
We've settled on the invites seen above and now we're working on food and
drink ideas, yay!  Dressy, casual, chic, rustic ... so many decisions and
so much fun.  What's your favorite type of party to attend, Chic/Dressy or Rustic/Casual?
Take the survey!! ------>
