Anniversary Dinner Date

Yesterday my hubby and I had our wedding anniversary dinner date at the Olive Garden. We had never tried dining at the Olive Garden before but after experiencing their excellent service and tasty food, all I can say is that we will be back. In fact my hubby told me that it was the best service that he had ever experienced. The waiter was very helpful and the food came much faster than what we were expecting. At first we thought that we might end up waiting for quite a while because there were so many cars in their parking lot but that was not the case. We were immediately seated after we walked in the front door and the waiter was there to bring our menus and get our drinks ordered in less than a minute.

My hubby had the Seafood Alfredo which is one of his favorites, while I had their special, Grilled Steak Fonduta, most of which I ended up eating after I got home because I had already filled up on the Chicken & Gnocchi Soup with bread sticks. Unfortunately, I forgot to bring my camera, so the above photos were taken from the Olive Garden menu web page. Congratulations to the Olive Garden restaurant in Fargo for the great food, service and a memorable dining experience.

Beef with Oriental Mix Vegetables

Ingredients:

* 1 lb beef steak
* 1 beef bullion cube
* 1 lb oriental mix vegetables (carrots, string & lima beans, broccoli, red pepper and water chest nuts)
* 1/2 onion

Procedure:

Cut the beef into cubes. Then boil it together with the beef bullion in two cups of water until it gets tender. Put the chopped onions and the oriental mix vegetables.

This is one of the recipes that I came up with experimenting in the kitchen. It turned well and my hubby liked it. He even said that this is the kind of food that I should eat more often because it is both healthy and tasty. I am craving for it every now and then.
