Happy New Year! For New Year's Eve, my two best friends and I decided to have a small dinner party.
MENU
Appetizers (from Trader Joe's)
Arugula & baby spring mix salad with parmesan flakes
Grilled flank steak with gorgonzola cream sauce
Roasted brussel sprouts with paprika
Roasted red potatoes with parmesan
Salted caramel cupcakes
Mint chocolate cupcakes
Everything we made turned out great (at least I think so!). My friend Bevin was behind the cupcakes and they were delicious. I wish I had pictures to share but you'll just have to use your imagination. I also managed to not take pictures of any human beings...oops.
Here's to an awesome 2012!
Recipes:
Roasted potatoes:
Quarter small red potatoes. Toss them with olive oil, salt, black pepper and grated parmesan. Spread them out on a pan. Bake at 450F for 20-25 minutes.
Brussel sprouts:
Trim the bottoms from the sprouts and peel away the outer leaves. Slice the sprouts in half through the stem. Toss the sprouts with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Spread them out on a pan, cut side down. Put the pan under the broiler and roast for 5-7 minutes.
