This January 1st, we held our 6th Annual New Year's Day Tapas dinner.
The children and their dad worked all afternoon and part of the evening to prepare a 9 dinner gourmet Tapas meal.
So without further ado, the first course - Stephen's Olives in Lemon and Orange...
... and Nathan's Lime Drizzled Shrimp.
Next course - Baked Stuffed Onions. These were great and I liked them much better than stuffed green peppers.
They were served over rice and with a mushroom gravy poured over them.
Third course was Aaron's Cheese and Olive Empanadillas.
Fourth course: Aaron's Chorizo and Cheese Tortilla (which was really more like an omelette) and ...
... my dh's Green Beans with Pine Nuts.
Fifth course was Deborah's Ham Wrapped Potatoes ...
... and Stephen's Chicken in Lemon and Garlic.
Finally we finished off the meal at about 10 pm with Deborah's Powdered Sugar Cookies. These were very interesting. The cookies themselves were made with lard, dry white wine, and flour. Once they were cooked and cooled, they were coated in powdered sugar. It was like eating tasty and flaky pie crusts.
