Summer Fresh - Entree

This is a light entree, best served hot, we discovered. These lettuce cups are heavier than average, making them a lovely and filling meal. This list of ingredients is for one lettuce cup, but four serves a person.

Ingredients:
Half a hard boiled egg
One leaf of lettuce
Three tablespoons of rice
Mexican shredded cheese blend
Pamesean cheese, shredded
One cherry tomato

Directions:
Crumble the egg and the cheese in a bowl. Put this in the microwave for about thirty seconds. Spread out a large lettuce leaf and place the now hot mixture in it. Then top with the rice of yoiur choosing (we recommend white rice). Roll up the leaf and stab a toothpick through it horizontally. Stick a cherry tomato on one end of the toothpick. Serve quickly, so it isn't cold when served.

Summer Fresh - Appetizer

This is cold angel hair pasta with mango sauce. Serve chilled. For adults, we recommend white wine; for kids,berry juices or pomegranate juices are good. Serves one.

Ingredients:
Half a mango
Two tablespoons of water
One and a half key limes
One teaspoon of olive oil
Two pinches of salt
A pinch of pepper (If using a grinder, one grind)
Half a teaspoon of cinnamon
One fourth cup of orange juice
Two small nests of angel hair pasta
Sprig of cilantro

Directions:
In blender, mix mango, water, olive oil, salt, pepper, cinnamon, and orange juice. Use one key lime, but quarter it and use all four. Save the peel of one quarter, then grate and add to blender. Boil water for pasta, cook, and chill. Chill mango sauce. Once chilled, pour mango sauce on pasta. Mix together and grind pepper onto top. Then add sprig of cilantro and two quarters of key lime. Serve.
