BBQ

We've made a slight departure from our "book of the month" experiment. Didn't take long did it?

Our stove is currently non-functioning while we install the new tile backsplash. BBQ here we come!!

The other night we grilled frozen chicken wings with a raspberry BBQ sauce. We also grilled quesadillas (say what?!) with goat cheese, grilled asparagus and grilled onion. Oh man, were the quesadillas great! We had no idea we would stumble onto something so awesome. The wings were served with extra sauce, and the quesadillas were served with some leftover roasted red pepper sauce, and Dijon mustard. I thought some peach preserves would work as well, but not really. (Though today we had a goat cheese appetizer with orange marmalade and it rocked - guess I wasn't too off base.) Top it off with chilled white zin in chilled wine glasses and we looked like a couple of California cuisine snobs. :) The best part was we pulled it all together with stuff on hand. Amazing.

A well stocked pantry (fridge, freezer, ...) can make life easier. This fabulous dinner brought to you by the following staples: Dijon mustard, flour tortillas, BBQ sauce, frozen wings, assorted cheeses, and of course, good, cheap wine!
