    pic·nic /ˈpikˌnik/ noun
    an outing or occasion that involves taking a packed meal to be eaten outdoors

    So for this picnic, I didn't venture far...I packed a meal for our patio! 

    Toasts

    Slice bread to 1/2-inch thick—any thinner and your bread might fall apart.

    • bread, sliced
    • olive oil
    • salt
    • Also needed: baking sheet, parchment paper (optional), silicone brush

    Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easier clean-up (optional).

    Lightly brush both sides of each slice with olive oil. This is usually about 2 to 3 Tablespoons of oil for a sheetful of toasts.

    Arrange slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and bake them on the middle rack of the preheated oven. Bake for 6 to 9 minutes until they’re crisped and golden brown. Turn half way through.

    Sprinkle the toasts lightly with salt. Transfer the toasts to a serving platter, if desired, and top with smoked salmon salad.

    Smoked Salmon Salad

    • 4 ounces smoked salmon
    • 1/4 cup whipped cream cheese
    • freshly squeezed lemon juice to taste
    • freshly ground salt
    • freshly ground pepper
    • 1 Tablespoon fresh chopped parsley plus more for garnish

    Place the salmon and cream cheese in the bowl of a food processor. Add in lemon juice and pulse until desired consistency. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Blitz in the parsley. Scoop onto toasts and sprinkle with more parsley as needed.

    That's a wrap for this week's event. The #SundayFunday crew will be back next week to share their favorite quinoa recipes. Stay tuned!

    Caulibits Crni Rižoto (Croatian Black "Risotto") #Whole30

    Last week, I participated in the Wine Pairing Weekend event 'New Year, New Wine." I paired Crni Rižoto with Dingac Vinarija’s Pelješac...and you can read my post: here . I was pouring a Croatian wine and decided to make a traditional Croatian dish. Every seafood restaurant in Croatia has a  Crni Rižoto  (black risotto) on its menu.  Crni Rižoto  is risotto dyed black with squid ink; I used cuttlefish ink for the same effect. However, since arborio rice is not Whole30 compliant, I made a version for myself that used caulibits instead of rice. Ingredients 1 C fish stock (or a combination of fish stock and vegetable stock) 1 T olive oil 1 medium shallots, peeled and minced 1 cloves garlic, crushed and minced 1/4 lb shrimp 1/4 lb squid tubes, cleaned and sliced into rings 1/4 lb scallops 1/4 lb clams, scrubbed 1/4 lb mussels, scrubbed 4 C caulibits, or chopped cauliflower 1 T fresh parsley, minced juice and zest from 1 organic lemon 1 t cuttlefish ink

    Connecticut Lobster Rolls, Canned Lobster Bisque, and a 2019 Henry Fessy 'Maître Bonhome' Viré-Clessé #Winophiles

    This month the French Winophiles group is looking at affordable wines from Burgundy.  Host Cindy of Grape Experiences wrote: "Burgundy, or Bourgogne, is known for its wines of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir... as well as Aligote, Gamay, Sauvignon, César, Pinot Beurot, Sacy, Melon in lesser quantities. Many of the well-known wines are quite expensive, but there are plenty of values to be found." Read her invitation here. And there won't be a Twitter chat for this event, so you will have to dive into the articles themselves to read about our pairings and findings. Here's the line-up...
