My contribution to Christmas Dinner, from the December 2012 United Airlines Hemisphere's Magazine -- Whipped Ricotta and Pear Crostini. This was a lot of fun--we give it a 5!!

New recipes, August 21, 2011

Today's new recipes were African Adobo Rubbed Pork Chops ( a riff off African Adobo Rubbed Tuna), a Salad of Watermelon, Goat Cheese, Microgreens and Figs, inspired by Hemispheres, the United flight magazine, and a plate of fresh heirloom tomatoes and banana peppers from the garden.

Wine: 2009 Infinite Monkey Theorem Petite Sirah.

Here is a closeup of the salad. The magazine was silent on the subject of a dressing, so we used a little lime juice and olive oil, and added a couple kalamata olives on the side.
