Tilefish, baked with vegetables, and served with caramelized onion. Tilefish, aka durango (not sure I spelled that right) is a very mild-tasting fish.
Bruschetta, made with cherry tomatoes from the garden. The bread was a fresh loaf of artisan bread from the Portuguese market, which was brushed with olive oil and then toasted in a slow oven at 285 for about a half hour. The RG mixed the tomatoes with herbs and garlic for the bruschetta and then put it on the golden-colored bread.
Cucumber salad with red onion and chopped mint. For a dressing, I mixed creme fraiche, mayonnaise, and sour cream.
Canary melon with cherries, blueberries, grapes, mint. Iced tea and tea biscuits.

(68,586 posts)I made Tuscan Chicken sausage cooked with peppers, onions...and I served it with marinara and gluten free flat bread and home grown yellow squash (yes we finally have squash). My sis told me to shake the the squash plants and it seems to have worked. For dessert a mug cake with strawberries and almond milk whipped topping.
