Justin Rosé and the Golf Club Sandwich

Tomorrow, in honor of this year's British Open, I'm preparing my golf enthusiast husband a hole in one meal.  It's un- FORE -gettable...

For lunch, I'm serving:

Gillian's "GOLF CLUB" Sandwich

Recipe yields 1 serving

Ingredients:

3 slices bacon

2 slices Ciabata bread, pressed

2 tablespoons avocado with sea salt, black pepper and evoo

½ ounce alfalfa sprouts

3 slices (1 ounce) cooked deli turkey breast

3 slices (1 ounce) cooked deli honey ham

2 slices tomato

Red onion, thinly-sliced

Directions:

Place bacon in a heavy skillet.  Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown.  Drain on paper towels.

Spread each slice of Ciabata bread with avocado.  On one slice, place bacon, alfalfa sprouts, tomato, red onion, turkey and ham. Then top with the second slice of bread.

In keeping with the golf theme, I'm also serving "chip it in" chips with sweet chili and sour cream.  However, if you'd prefer a more healthy side, you could offer lightly-dressed greens instead.

For dessert, I'm serving:

Martha Stewart's "TEE-TIME" Cupcakes

And as a treat for myself, for working so hard, I think I'll have a glass (or two) of  "JUSTIN ROSÉ."

Have a great weekend!

Open Your JAWS!

In keeping with the week's beach theme, I decided I would get my toes wet... in the kitchen.  And, this recipe was just perfect!

That said, open your JAWS for a sweet summer BITE, or two...

The only variation to the recipe, aside from using boxed cupcakes and store-bought buttercream icing, are the gold sand sprinkles I used in place of graham cracker crumbs.  I prefer the crunch!

Easy-to-make and fun to decorate, these seaside cupcakes will keep your hungry lil' sharks at bay!  Happy SUN and SAND!

 

Judy's 'JUST-THAT-EASY' Icing!

As I said earlier, my get-fit mind has been in the CUPCAKE gutter this last week.  So, I thought it only appropriate I purge my sugar sins by sharing GRAMMY's divine frosting recipe.

Bear in mind, I'm new at this whole cooking thing...

Judy's 'JUST-THAT-EASY' Icing!

Ingredients:

1 c. milk

1 small pkg. vanilla instant pudding

¼ c. powdered sugar

1 8 oz. Cool Whip

Directions:

Mix milk and pudding on low for two minutes.  Add sugar ~ then Cool Whip.  Remember cake or cupcakes need to be refrigerated.

I hope you enjoy Grammy's Cool Whip quickie.  I know I did!
