Today was a combination of stress and a great time. Cooking for such a large number of people is something that I have never done before, so it was stressful to say the least! However, it was a great experience and I think our meal came out pretty good. Today's menu was based on cheese. Therefore, each part of the meal had some aspect of cheese included.
Spinach Salad with Goat Cheese
While I don't normally enjoy goat cheese, the baked cheese nature of it made it very good and I enjoyed it!
Eggplant Parmesan
This was the dish that I worked on. I had never cooked eggplant before, so I was a little nervous. We had some help preparing the dish, but everything came together and I really ended up liking the result.
4 Cheese Lasagna
While I usually prefer marinara based lasagna, this was a good dish and it was extremely rich!
Cheesy Buns
These were really good, I really liked the amount of cheese they had with a little bit of onion to offset it and make sure it wasn't too cheesy.
Tiramisu
I love tiramisu, and this dish did not disappoint. Hopefully I can learn how to make this for myself.
Overall it was a great experience to cook in the church kitchen for a large group of people. Stressful although it was, I learned important lessons and look forward to our next session!
