FLAVOR, FLAVOR, FLAVOR!

"Don't forget the salt."  

Well we thought we had enough salt; but it just seemed to disappear as we were 
going along today.I was glad to have my partner back for this Saturday's 90 
minute practice challenge. Not that I didn't have fun with Stephen last week, 
I had a great learning experience last week with Stephen, which is an opportunity to not pass up, since Stephen is the "Sauce Man" in our class.

I just missed the-on-the-same-mind-set Annette and I have developed 
over the past few months.

We got it together to finally make a shrimp and grits for an appetizer today. It was a challenge for both of us YANKEE girls. But I think we definitely made a mark in the world of shrimp and grits. We kept it simple, but really wowed ourselves in the flavor. 

I am sooo making some for dinner tonight.    

Next was our entree, a little chipolti, garlic, and onion marinade for the steak, I made my famous potato croquette's and then we grilled the asparagus.  Need to work on the presentation and some more salt!

 

Dessert was a fresh berry crepe with Annette's super duper cinnamon whipped cream. YUMM!! Can't understand why the apposing team couldn't find any flavor in any of our dishes. Maybe they just don't have any taste buds or wait a minute even tried the dishes?
