With million things happening in May it can be a bit overwhelming. We know grilling is popular over Memorial Day Weekend and thought we would offer a non-grilling option to change it up a bit!  

For a simple and elegant meal this weekend try out the Panko Pumpkin Seed Crusted Rack of Lamb with a side of Truffled Fries. Both recipes are simple and easy to do leaving you with plenty of time to sit and relax and not slave in the kitchen.

Also if you have children that may not be interested in the rack of lamb just grab a couple of burger patties and make them hamburgers to go with the fries. 

Here are our suggestions:

Main Dish: Panko Pumpkin Seed Crusted Rack of Lamb

Side: Truffled French Fries

Salad: Serve a simple green salad with a champagne vinaigrette

Dessert: Grab your favorite gelato from the store (we like pistachio) OR if you LOVE apricots try out this Apricot in Cream and Pistachio

For wine we are really enjoying:

La Marca Prosecco, Sebastiani Chardonnay from Sonoma County, Bordeaux Chateau Gloria St. Julien
