Dinner Menu

The focus for this KitchenBytes is dinner for family or friends. The goal is to serve a nice meal at the appointed hour without becoming frazzled. The way to achieve this goal is to plan ahead and "Keep it simple!" I am not an expert, but I have learned through trial and error to plan a menu that contains dishes that can be prepared in advance. And even a simple dinner may be special and elegant with just a few extra touches you probably wouldn't add to your normal daily meals. Perhaps you'll find the following menu helpful. Prepare your favorite brand of rice pilaf and steam some baby carrots in the microwave. Recipes for the starred dishes are included in the KitchenBytes Cookbook.

*Fruit Cup
*Garden Salad - *Yeast Rolls - *Butter Flowers
*Marinated Flank Steak
Rice Pilaf - *Asparagus Bundles - Steamed Baby Carrots
*Chocolate Fudge Pie
