Tonight I prepared one of my favorite meals. Everything was easy to prepare, healthy and tasted fantastic.
From top left, going counter clockwise we have:
Butterfly Shrimp with Organic Quinoa & Brown Rice garnished with fresh Arugula and Spinash, Caesar Salad topped with Seasonal Vidalia Onions, Homemade Blackberry Cobbler and Stella Rosa Imperiale Rossa Lux Sparkling Wine
Credit and thanks to @jaynie for sharing her shortcut and simple technique for creating rice balls using plastic food wrap to form the circular balls (I used Saran Wrap).
Butterfly Shrimp with Organic Quinoa & Brown Rice
Added fresh arugula and spinach as garnishes though I still need to work on my plating skills!
Vidalia onions are in season right now and their sweet taste enhances everything. They taste so incredibly good you can eat bites of the delicious onion by itself! I add a splash of extra virgin olive oil to my fresh salads for the bonus HDL and flavorful taste.

Homemade blackberry cobler made with fresh blackberries was super delicious - I almost forgot to take a photo before finishing it!
Homemade Blackberry Cobbler
And lastly, the wine...
"A serious sparkler with delicious notes of wild berry and cherry flavors come from non irrigated vineyards that produce wines with complex aromas and delicate balance. We call it our red prosecco." (www.totalwine.com)

This is my entry for the fun @foodfightfriday

The stay at home orders were lifted and many restaurants in my area reopened with new guidelines in place.
Regardless of the "freedom" to dine out again, we have only eaten out once so far -- at an Mexican restaurant that serves "Arroz con Pollo" made exactly the way my son loves.
Please continues to stay healthy while practicing social distancing. Good news is that following safety measures helped flatten the curve.

:D thanks i just came to eat and drink thinking of going back into hiding :)
Yes, yes and yes! Looks like you have all of my favorites! What time should I be there..lol?! It all looks delicious Nina! Now my tummy is grumbling for some yumminess. Last week we had an especially yummy dinner and I took photos of the separate foods and was gonna take a photo of my plate but didn't remember to do that till I was almost finished eating..happens way too often with me..hee hee! 😋 😁
Oh dear @ninahaskin!!! Why are there so much good food at your table?!? Where is justice? Hahaha! 😂
Seriously! Those rice balls are appetizing. I could easily make one, having rice all we can in our country! Hahaha! 😂 I just didn't think about it. I can even make it to bait the young fellow at home to eat some more rice. This is such a fun idea, Nina. You got me there.
Thank you for sharing. And I really hope I could enjoy all your food beyond virtually! 😋😋😋 Yum, yum!
Take care! And have a beautiful week ahead.
Oh my word @ninahaskin, a knock-out methinks! You have totally blown away all contenders! Everything looks absolutely delicious, ALL of my favourite things. Firstly that crispy Butterfly Shrimps and then ending with that Cobbler, just yum!
Just a perfect dinner with a bottle of red wine doesn't get any better then that 👍
