Our daughter, our youngest, our Baby Girl... Celebrated her Sweet Sixteenth on the 18th, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
She got her present early, a 'Wacom Cintiq Pro 16" drawing tablet, but she had to wait till this weekend for her Birthday Dinner because I work 12pm to 930pm or later.
As family tradition goes she got to choose the menu.
MENU
Chicken Cordon Bleu
Twice Baked Baked Potatoes
Asparagus with Parmesan Sauce
Frozen Peanut Butter Pie with Crushed Oreos
Chicken Cordon Bleu
Pound breasts out to 1/4 inch flat, salt and pepper, then layer cheese and ham, roll and toothpick securely.
Then they get dipped in beaten egg and rolled in seasoned breadcrumbs.
Let the crumb crust set up in the fridge for 30 minutes.
Spray with olive oil before going into a 400° oven, shoot for an IT of 160°, and then broil if needed to get a nice color.
Twice Baked Baked Potatoes
These had three sticks of butter, sour cream, heavy cream and approx 1/2 LB each of Gouda, Smoked Gruyere and Parmesan.
A generous addition of salt to make the flavors 'POP!', and some ground white pepper.
Twice baked till hot and then topped with more shredded Parmesan and broiled for color.
