Great weekend of cooking

It's Monday morning and I am refreshed because I had a fabulous cooking weekend. It all started off with a great meal on Friday night. B and I made classic Chicken Cordon Bleu and then made it with a twist by changing the ham for grison and the Swiss cheese for Monterey jack. Needless to say, it makes for an even more interesting meal. It’s also really easy to do so I suggest you try it.

Saturday night we were hosting B’s family for her Mom’s birthday dinner. We decided to make one of our new favorites roasted leg of lamb. It was a big hit! One person at the table commented that it was the best lamb he had ever had. We served the lamb with some roasted potatoes, steamed green beans and a simple green salad. We opted for a chocolate fondue instead of a birthday cake. If you haven’t had chocolate fondue you are missing one of life’s great pleasures. I’ll try to blog that one in the next few days as well.

The weekend finished off with tacos on Sunday night. Tacos are another one of our faves that is just so easy to do, has lots of veggies in it and helps clean out the fridge because almost anything can go into a taco and be delicious.
