First grillfest of the season – one person hosted and supplied the grill, two of us supplied the food, everybody worked hard to decimate everything.

Colossal shrimp with garlic and miso, octopus with potato / pulpo alla gallega, lamb chops, asparagus and mushrooms, eggplant and zucchini, burrata and tomato salad (plus grilled bread too, which I love).

Portobello Mushrooms with Spinach - not very photogenic but nonetheless very tasty. Portobello mushrooms were filled with spinach, mushroom stems, onion, garlic and nutmeg and topped with a breadcrumb butter mixture. Sauce was made with bell peppers (red, yellow, green), onions, dried tomatoes, thyme, cream cheese and water. Everything was baked in the oven for 25 minutes
