Thursday

We stole this from an Italian restaurant in NYC.

Mix cooked shrimp, steamed green beans (cut in half), minced red onion, cubed tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, Balsamic vinegar and season to taste. Add crumbled bacon on top. Served with angel hair pasta with marinara sauce and garlic bread. Chianti and lemon ice water.

The Riba Smith grocery store (muy caro) actually had spumoni ice cream.

Enjoy your mystery dinner, NJCher!
