Family Dinnoh

Garlic Bread, Taverrite Sausage Sliders, Mix Salad, Spicy Chicken

Family Dinner night Success! I've done this several times before but this is probably the most food I've cooked, enough for 6! The salad is easy and very filling so it can be eaten even without a main course, but I was feeding 4 garbage-disposal-style boys, so the chicken legs were needed.

Garlic Bread: Trader Joe's Inspired, can get all the ingredients from there 

- Ciabatta roll
- Butter
- Diced Garlic Paste
- Garlic Olive Oil
-Garlic Salt
- Oregano



Taverrite Sausage Sliders: thank you Andrew Taverrite for you and your family providing the deliciousness

 Mix Salad:

- Red, Yellow, Orange Peppers
- Hard Boiled Eggs
- Avocado
- Gorgonzola Cheese
- Feta Cheese
- Mushrooms ( I use crimini and portabello)
- Italian Dressing

- Balsamic Oil

(1) Lightly drizzle the Italian Dressing over the mushrooms and saute them for 15 minutes until they're juicy with a light crisp on outside
(2) Dice the peppers, basil, and avocado and slice the up the eggs
(3) Mix everything together while the mushrooms are sauteing, crumble the gorgonzola and feta 
(4) Add mushrooms and as much olive oil and balsamic vinegar needed to fully dress salad

(2) Dip the chicken legs in sauce first then bread in the dry mixture.
(3) Let sit in refrigerator for 45 minutes
(4) Preheat oven to 400
(5)Line baking sheet with aluminum foil and olive oil
(6) Drizzle garlic olive oil, melted butter, extra pepper sauce and extra seasonings on the legs on the sheet
