The menu:
- Snap peas (with just a dash of salt to help bring out the flavor)
- Sauteed leek and mushrooms topped with cheese (drizzle with a bit of olive oil, saute, top with shredded mozzarella, Parmesan or blue cheese)
- Fresh spring greens with radish and carrot and my basic salad dressing.
The only challenge of this meal is timing the leek and mushroom portion so it’s hot when served.
