Open House Dinner Party
Andrea plans an "Open House" dinner party, serving up four amazing room-temperature recipes that will pair magnificently with her wine picks. And the best part, everything can be prepared ahead of time so our host can mingle with the guests instead of worrying about keeping the food warm.

She starts with a lovely roasted beet salad with lemon-thyme vinaigrette accompanied by an herbed goat cheese on flatbread. Next, she prepares a tasty lentil salad and delicious grilled salmon with cucumber, horseradish and dill. This fresh and light meal will pair wonderfully with a crisp Savignon Blanc.
