Picnic Under the Stars

Another fabulous find in one of my favorite cookbooks – “Cooking Light Annual Recipes 2004”. I served this menu to my investment club the other evening. While we couldn’t see the stars due to cloud cover, we were at least able to dine al fresco. 

White Bean Dip

Spicy-Sweet Melon Salad

Saffron Shrimp w/Fennel Seeds

Italian Rice Salad

Lemon Cloud with Blackberry-Mint Compote

Serves 6 

There was a small amount of the lemon cloud left over. My husband, who always professes to be less than wild about lemon, loved it. (Of course, this is the same man who for years said he wasn’t a dessert eater. He has finally stopped trying to convince me of that.)
