Couple of lunches this week: Braised Pork Loin with a Pork Apple Velouté and Roast Beef with Beef Gravy. Velouté - French meaning "velvety" for a thickened light colored sauce vs. Gravy - thickened dark, robust flavored sauce from meat juices - origin maybe French or English. Both ours are GF - cornstarch thickened. Velouté or Gravy - both enhance the meat! Enjoy!

Making the mango salsa, Shanna and Sandy used the Pampered Chef Mango Wedger to get the side pieces and then the glass method was used to remove the fruit from the skin before dicing it - worked super slick. Mangos are amazing so use this tutorial to help you -https://www.youtube.com/shorts/8hU5xtOe-MU

☠Argh Matey, what are we having for supper? The Pineapple Parrot oversees the Mango Salsa that was served with the Jerk Chicken Taco. Limes and Garlic Lime Crema drizzled the Fish Taco. Rice and Black Bean Salad, Hot Crab Dip and Chips, and choice of fresh fruit completed the meal for the RareJul "Pirates of the Caribbean" theme golf tournament fundraiser. Always a "treasure" to serve this worthy cause.
