It’s only the first week of my vacation and my wife is away in Ecuador. I am home alone. After two days of slumming on pate and cheese, and following some motivated gym time, I decided to make a nice dinner for myself. A Mets’ game was about to be televised, so I whipped up this dinner in one pan and… well it was good!

Menu for the Mets

Salad:

Arugula, pear, goat cheese salad with almonds and mustard vinaigrette.
( Got this from my friends at Quaint, nice taste!)

Main course:
Roasted wild striped bass, tomatoes, pencil asparagus, portabella mushroom  onions cooked in pancetta, drizzled with Castelas extra virgin olive oil.

Wine:

Bastianich Viticoltori
Tokai Friuliano
(A present from my friends Leo and Roberto!)

Dessert:
I wanted something rich in chocolate, but who wants to do all that work? I would have gone for watermelon or a peach, except I had none at home and it was too hot to go buy some. What would have been your choice?

Oh, the Mets lost!
