I am trying to look over my recipe indexes. So far my recommendation is Chicken Louisa- adapted from Gourmet magazine. It is pounded chicken breasts sauteed and removed from pan then shallots and a little garlic and stock concentrate is added along with wine/stock. Then add chopped seeded tomatoes- yellow and red is wonderful- and simmer until soft- about 5 minutes. the original recipe called for cream but I use plain soy creamer. You could take some for yourself and then add cream to the others. Top with basil and serve over a small bed of angel hair pasta. This is only advised if you have good tomatoes available now. Steamed french green beans or asparagus is nice as a side. For a starter...hmm I am not sure yet. This recipe is sort of French not Italian and that makes it harder.
I made tofu/choc mousse for dessert a few weeks ago and it was a huge hit. It was very rich. White cake with berries is nice this time of year.
