*Birthday Dinner*

Our home-made birthday dinner, took me a few hours to make dessert but I was able to whip up the main dish in about 30 minutes.

Spaghetti Aglio, Olio, e Peperoncino,

I found the recipe here

*I added spinach leaves, Parmesan cheese & grilled chicken after adding spices. The spinach steamed nicely, the flavors all blended nicely.

Gorgonzola Garlic Bread,

recipe here

&

Bastard Sangria,

can be made with red wine or grape juice

And last but not least the amazing desert I am pretty proud of. I can't believe I pulled it off, but it was delicious.

Layered Lemon Tart

recipe here

*Lucky for me I had just bought a food processor and was able to make the whole recipe using just that magical machine & a sauce pan...lovely!

Leftovers are going to taste oh so yummy!!
