This is my version of an easy to throw together dinner party. We are having guests tonight. I figured the house was spotless from the afternoon tea I had on Thursday so why not make the most of it. But I don't have a lot of time to cook so this is what I am whipping up:
Chips and nuts for nibbles. I normally would have a dip but this will be an early evening as kids are attending, so I didn't want everyone filling up.
Garlic Chicken thighs. Now I know telling you about these are only of use to those living south of Perth. The butcher between McDonalds and Bunnings on Leach Hwy, Melville makes these. They are thighs marinated in olive oil, garlic and parsley. They BBQ perfectly and are so moist
. We have tried to replicate the marinade but no luck
.
Pasta Salad with pesto, mayo, spinach, prosciutto and pinenuts.
Green Italian Salad with lettuce mix, olives, sun dried tomatoes, fetta cheese and dressing in oil from sundried tomatoes.
Asparagus.
Garlic Bread.
Some carrot sticks for kids.
Strawberry Sundaes - strawberries, vanilla ice cream, strawberry syrup, and toasted slivered almonds.
Very easy peasy
