Dinner with the Folks

My godparents came up to New York to visit a week or so ago and I offered to make them Sunday Brunch. I haven't seen them in 10 years or so, so it was really a special occasion. Being that it's summer, and it's ridiculously hot here in the city, I decided that lighter fare was better fare. So, I pulled together the following menu:

      Guacamole with blue chips
      Corn salad
      Red Inca Quinoua pilaf
      Sauteed shrimp and chicken in terriyaki sauce
      Stir-fried beans and mushrooms
      Pound cake with fruit salad and yogurt

The entire dinner was a success. I made the guacamole from scratch, but didn't put any hot chilis in it - I will try to remember that for next time. In the next few days I'll post all the receipes as they were all quite excellent. The pilaf I have posted about already.
