Want to know the secret to long weekends? 2 nights out, one night in! Here is how to throw a small dinner party, while still enjoying that full lazy Sunday.
Newlymed note: This also works for a fun and low key Friday IF you have time to hit the grocery store after work.
First things first. Pick easy recipes that don't take a lot of prep time. Bonappetite is a fantastic resource. I recently picked a shrimp and pasta dish.
Next, hit the grocery and take a friend with you. Not only does it cut your time in half, it's much more fun!
Then, rinse, chop and boil the second you get home.
Last, pour the wine half way through the prep. Your guests will not realize that time is passing and dinner will be ready before you know it!
Wa la! Here's the full recipe for Penne with Shrimp and Morel Mushrooms.
