Garden Menu

I adore a garden party! This menu showcases the beautiful flower blooms, herbs, and vegetables from the garden, beginning with a crisp and refreshing Cucumber Mint Mojito. If you enjoy a hint of spice, then the Cucumber Salsa and Spicy Cucumber Margarita are perfect choices! Rosemary is my most cherished herb; it enhances dishes like Rosemary Cashews, Marinated Mozzarella, and Skewered Monkfish. For simplicity, try the Yogurt Marinated Chicken. Prepare it the night before, then grill it when your guests arrive; however, it's just as delightful at room temperature. Serve it wrapped in Flatbreads and topped with Tzatziki. Finish on a high note with a stunning Blackberry Cake adorned with sweet White Chocolate Buttercream. Embrace the floral notes with Lavender Lemon Cookies and indulge in a full bouquet of flavor with a pitcher of Lavender Haze. Utilizing fresh chives from the garden always yields incredible butter, vinegar, and vinaigrette. Combine them with mayonnaise for a Creamy Chive Potato Salad.

St. Patrick’s Day Menu

Irish Cream…. the star of the show! A must to make Irish Cream Meringue with Chocolate Sauce, Baileys Fudge Chocolate or my favorite Nutty Irish Coffee. The Brown Bread and Soda Bread are both quick breads, and they are delicious. Cottage Pie, Corned Beef, and Bacon and Cabbage are all perfect for any St. Patrick’s Day celebration. Actually, the cottage pie is on weekly rotation in our home, So Good! This menu wouldn’t be complete without potatoes, the Savory Mince with Cheesy Potato Wedges ticks all the boxes and the Creamy Leek Tart is a delicious vegeterian option. This menu wouldn’t be me if I didn’t throw a bit of America in with these adorable Lucky Charm Cookies. They go great with an Irish Coffee as do my Sour Cream Crumb Cake. Loving this menu, Enjoy!

Fourth of July Menu

Happy Fourth of July. Let’s get started with a savory or sweet starter and cocktail? Take your pick, go savory with Roasted Black Cherries Over Goats Cheese & Black Cherry Lime Cocktail or sweet with Grand Marnier Fruit Salad with Grand Marnier Cream & Grand Marnier Fruit Punch. But really why choose? Have both! Next up, the mains. I went with two American classics, Italian Sausage and Peppers and Garlic Butter Steamed Clams. For the sides, I kept it simple and classic; Creamy Chive Potato Salad, Classic Coleslaw, and Husk On Grilled Corn. Jalapeno Lime Butter and Chive Blossom Butter are both delicious for smearing on the corn. Two amazing desserts that will go down a treat are my Watermelon Coconut Popsicles and Sponge Cake with Vanilla Cream and Summer Berries. The sponge is a perfect ending for the Fourth with it’s red, white, and blue proudly displayed.

Memorial Day Menu

Let’s kick off summer! A Watermelon Pizza with olives, feta, and mint is the perfect way to start. Drizzling homemade balsamic glaze on top really elevates the flavors and pairing it with a pitcher full of cool and refreshing Watermelon Punch is ideal! Now, lets get grilling, making Homemade Beef Burgers, topped with Pickled Onions and all the fixings. For epic sides I chose Seasoned Potato Wedges with Fry Sauce, Chargrilled Corn, and Broccoli Salad. It wouldn’t be a patriotic weekend without a bit of red white a blue. My Fresh Watermelon Cake ticks all the boxes and looks absolutley stunning. This cake needs to be displayed proudly! For those who need to cool down my Strawberry Crunch Ice Cream Bars will defintely do the trick. Enjoy and Happy Memorial Day!
