Swell Supper: Flavor Sensation!

My nearly 5 ½ year old daughter is expanding her vocabulary sometimes faster than she can keep up with the words pouring out of her mouth. A drive to the park is ‘awkward’ and any time of day is a good time for some ‘riveting dinner conversation.’ Now she’s told me that this week’s swell supper will be called “Flavor Sensation.”  And I think I found exactly that in a Dinner Frittata, Beets with Orange Vinaigrette, and Ginger Molasses Cookies for dessert.

Begin by mixing the ingredients for the ginger molasses cookies and place in the fridge to cool for 20 minutes. During this time prepare the beets with orange vinaigrette and place it on the table for serving.

Return to the cookies by rolling the dough into balls and baking them according to the recipe. After the cookies are finished make the dinner frittata while fighting the urge to eat all the cookies (we each snuck one, don’t tell!) Your mouths are in for quite a treat with this dinner flavor sensation. Now doesn’t that sound swell?
