Last Night's Dinner and Easter Dinner.

Last night for dinner me and Abby made Vegetarian Minestrone. We also made goat cheese (obviously, not vegan), sun-dried tomato and fresh spinach panini. The sandwich was very, very good. Since I do not have a grill pan, or a panini maker. I just made them the usual way in the pan, but place another, smaller pan on top of it and then put the full pot of soup on top of that to press it down (oh so resourceful!)

For Easter we're going to do appetizers. I usually do brunch, but that's getting old, plus "brunch" time is Abby's naptime. That's not a good idea. So, this is what I've tentatively come up with:

• Onion Tarts with Goat Cheese
• Eggplant, Smoked Mozzarella and Basil Rolls
• Sweet Potato Rolade
• Deviled Eggs
• Garlic Toasts with Black Olive Tapenade
• Crispy Baked Eggs Rolls
• Black Bean Cakes (my sister will make)
• Brushetta (my sister will also make this.)
• Lemon and Almond Tart
• Creamy Lemon Rice Pudding

It's a lot, but doesn't seem like enough. Plus, it's going to be a lot of work. Especially with a toddler.
