The Challenge For Charity "Veg Dinner for 8"

Sunday, May 17, 2009


The folks that bought the "Veg Dinner for 8" at the Graduate School of Management Challenge for Charity event in February called in for home delivery. I came up with a "Doce de Mayo" theme since we picked May 12th to do the party. Lots of yummy Mexican fare, including:
  • Chips and Dips: Homemade Tortilla Chips, Salsa Verde, Salsa Cruda, Guacamole, Homemade Refried Beans with Cheddar
  • Chile Peanuts
  • Mains: "Chicken" Enchiladas, Tacos with Picadillo
  • Taco Fixin's: Radishes, Queso Fresco, Cheddar, Lettuce, Sour Cream, Tomatoes, Jalapenos, Cilantro, Lime
  • Salad: Jicama, Tortilla, Strawberry (after I discovered my mango was so ripe it turned to mush, thanks guys)
  • Mexican Rice
  • Desserts: Mexican Wedding Cookies, Chile Cinnamon Truffles, Candied Jalapeno
  • Homemade Sangria
It was kind of dark so Michael didn't take too many pictures, but here are the ones he did snap.
