Holy Saturday meal

On our last day of Lent eating no meat we had fish.

We had an appetizer of a fresh spring Artichoke with Curried mayonnaise.

1 medium sized fresh artichoke, stem shortened
1/4 cup of mayonnaise
About 1/2 T of curry powder
Blend the curry powder and mayo to make the dip.
Place the articoke in a bowl with a little water at the bottom, cover with plastic wrap.
Microwave on high about 2 minutes.

To serve, peel the leaves off the artichoke and dip the ends in the mayo and eat, scraping off the tender inside of  the leaf.


Mahi Mahi
2 Wild Mahi Mahi filets
  (note the dark meat portion is a little different taste than the white meat portion)
Tastefully Simple Sangria Salsa topped the fish
Grill on foil on medium heat for about 20-25 minutes until fish is tender

Grilled Asparagus - see recipe on March 27th

Salad -- this one was quick and easy
1 bag of Garden Salad
8 grape tomatoes, halved
6 mozzarella fresca balls and some oil drizzled on salad
1 oz. of Stilton cheese with apricots
2 roasted red peppers, chopped

Toss all ingredietnts together.  Serve with your favorite salad dressing.
