Friday's Dinner 10/02/2006
As promised here is tonight's menu: mesclun salad with tomatoes,
onions, lightly herbed viniagrette, and light sprinkling of sunflower seeds; grilled whitefish with a light orange sauce, steamed asparagus, steamed carrots; desert will be a low fat yogurt topped with a little brandied berry mix garnished with fresh strawberries and a sprig of mint; dinner wine will be a white but I haven't decided what yet. I'm thinking something light, on the dry side, with a slight fruitiness. To accent the orange sauce, I'll stuff the fish with slices of lemon, lime, and orange as well as a sprig or two of lemon thyme. I've done this before. It gives just a nice hint of citrus and thyme throughout the fish. The orange sauce is quick and easy to make. It gives a lot of flavour without adding a lot of calories. DH and I have made a pact to take a nightly after dinner walk as well so that should help. The nightly snack will be frozen blueberries. They are full of anti-oxidants and perfect for curbing any late night munchies |
