Fund Raiser Menu

Next Saturday I'm cooking dinner for a fund raiser in the Bay Area. Faced with limited kitchen facilities, I offered to prepare an outdoor menu. The menu, which is centered around a beef tritip roast, fit the event hosts request for a traditional meat and potatoes meal.

Here's the menu for Saturday's event:

  • Grilled Santa Maria-style Tritip
  • Creamy Scalloped Potatoes
  • Piquinto Bean with Spicy Red Sauce
  • Pico De Gallo
  • Mixed Greens with Cilantro Vinaigertette
  • French Bread with Sweet Butter
  • Peach Cobbler
PICO DE GALLO

I found this recipe on the El Dorado Hills Fire Department website.

5 ripened tomatoes, seeded, small dice
1 red onion, small dice
3 jalapeno peppers, seeded, fine dice
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup fresh lime juice

Mix all ingredients in bowl. Season to taste with kosher salt and ground black pepper. Chill and serve.
