Things on a plate

  Posted on   by   2 comments

One of my favorite weekend lunches is what my family calls “things on a plate”.  You can put whatever “things” you like on it.  We typically have – hearts of palm, artichoke hearts, salami, fresh mozzarella, basil or pesto, olives, cornichon (teeny tiny pickles), tomatoes, goat cheese, etc.  It’s really anything you can find in your cupboards and fridge.  Serve this with a sliced baguette, sea salt, black pepper and most importantly, balsamic glaze.  This all goes really well with a nice dry French rosé.

My daughter, Zoe, took this wonderful photo of our lunch yesterday before we were allowed to eat it!
