FOTO FRIDAY:BREAKING PASSOVER

FOTO FRIDAY: Last Friday after a week of eating unleavened food the last night at sundown had finally arrived... 

It was no longer Passover.

Matzagna 

Don't get me wrong we had eaten very well during Passover which resulted in adding 3 new favorite Passover recipes including our last entree of Matzagna.  Using those meatless meatballs made out of mushrooms made this Passover lasagna a hit with the guy sharing my dinner table...

Spanish Almond Torte

We also added two dessert recipes during the week: a Spanish Almond Torte and an Apple cake. To tell you the truth we normally don't have desserts with our dinner and Natureman is really not a cake kind of guy but when you can't have something for some reason psychologically you yearn for it. These two were yummy favorites.

Pesadiche Apple Cake

 I had made sure to have fresh mint and parsley on hand for a recipe to fix before the holiday but ran out of time so it was the perfect choice for breaking Passover as it had orzo as the main ingredient.  Now we could enjoy those garnishes of fresh mint and parsley in the dish called Lemon Garlic Orzo.



It was as flavorful as it looks with toasted almonds, feta, raisins, tomatoes
etc... with a citrus vinaigrette. This certainly will be added to our summer menu.

It's difficult to believe that was already a week ago... 



Did you try any new dishes during your Holiday meals? Do share.

As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words...
