Mom and Dad dinner alone tonight
Wow! Since the kids are both out for dinner we get to have something fancy. Some Jazz in the background, we will start with baby arugula and shredded yellow beet with a sweet and sour bacon vinaigrette. Then comes the show stopper. Mushroom Risotto! The mushroom liquid and red wine give it a beautiful light brown sauce. I use Tofutti cream cheese and Daiya jack to make it even more creamy. Bellisimo! My children are great eaters, but they put their feet down about mushrooms. Maybe someday they will grown into them. For now, Daddy and I get them all to ourselves. Bounanotte.
