We are playing golf tomorrow morning with friends and having them over to the house for dinner that evening. No golf for me today as I'm resting my tennis elbow and cooking for tomorrow night. The menu will be margaritas and beer with chips and salsa followed by Crabmeat Gazpacho Martini as an appetizer. That is gazpacho topped with crabmeat served in a martini glass. The presentation is beautiful. I'm going to combine two different gazpacho recipes as I like the flavor of one and the texture of the other.
In addition to beautiful weather, another wonderful thing about living in paradise is that it's tomato season here. Yesterday we picked about 25 pounds of tomatoes and paid only $10. Sis and I split them giving us each about 45 tomatoes for $5. Such a deal! Deciding how to use them all up is the only problem. The gazpacho should use a few.
The entree will be Low-Fat Chicken Enchiladas with all the toppings.
For dessert I'm experimenting with a new recipe: Frozen Strawberry Margarita Dessert.
You would think we would have fabulous Mexican restaurants here in Sun City Center, Florida, as the Hispanic population is enormous in the surrounding towns. Unfortunately, we haven't found Mexican food in a restaurant that is as good as we can make at home.
If the two new recipes are delicious, I'll post them so you can enjoy a good Mexican meal, too.
Adios Amigos.
