Serve this special entree with some special side dishes. Special Green Beans are perfect; fresh, yet dressed up with sweet grape tomatoes. And Easy Sourdough Bread is delicious; serve it warm from the oven, or slice the bread and treat it as garlic bread.
And Peanut Parfait Dessert, a rich and creamy layered dessert with brownies, whipped cream, and peanut butter, is the perfect finish to this rich and elegant meal. Light the Christmas tree, lay a fire in the fireplace, and set your table with sparkling crystal and silver. Enjoy.
Special Holiday Dinner Menu: Mexican Peacocks
- Roasted Corn and Lobster Dip
This elegant dip is so delicious; roasting corn brings out its sweetness. You could also use cooked shrimp or crab meat instead of the lobster if you'd like. - Mexican Peacocks
Buy the avocado a couple of days before your dinner so it can soften and ripen to creamy perfection. - Tomato Green Beans
You could also use a combination of green beans and wax beans if you'd like. Also think about sprinkling the finished dish with some chopped salted cashews. - Strawberry Melon Salad
Really beautiful strawberries can be found at this time of year. If you can't find them, just use more melon balls. - Easy Sourdough French Bread
You can slice this bread and make Toasted Parmesan Garlic Bread if you'd like. - Peanut Parfait Dessert
You can use a brownie mix, or make your own brownies, which are very easy. For this menu, I'd serve this dessert chilled, not frozen.
