❧ round one

[dramatispersonae]

Create an appetizer course. It should be light, tasty, and have a variety of flavors. It should be easy to eat, and not be too large, since there are other courses to follow.

The main ingredient you should use for this is pineapple.

Re: ❧ round one

[scalesfromeyes]

…Which one is pineapple?

Re: ❧ round one

[iwantcandy]

Oh, it's that one! [pointing] Mmm, Hound~, could you cut it up for us? Get all of the spikes off and everything.

❧ round two

[dramatispersonae]

❧ main course

[dramatispersonae]

The main course should be the feature of your meal: making it filling and with a variety of complementary aspects is important!

Your main ingredient for this is chicken wings.

Re: ❧ main course

[scalesfromeyes]

It's a good thing we left plenty of chicken. Hmm…

Re: ❧ main course

[iwantcandy]

[ummm]

This may be difficult.

❧ round three

[dramatispersonae]

❧ dessert

[dramatispersonae]

Dessert should be sweet and not too big! . . . or perhaps it should be big, depending on who you're talking to. But the sweet part is very important.

Your main ingredient is bread.

Your bonus ingredients for this round (added to your basket) are: 1/2 dozen eggs & 2 bananas.

Re: ❧ appetizer

[One appetizer-sized portion of chicken sandwiched between slices of pineapple. The top pineapple is in a flower shape! There's another pineapple-sandwich, but with no meat for those among us who don't eat meat. Oranges and apple slices and bits are added as accents around the dish, but not pictured because A Thousand Hours In Paint but they're there. Spices sprinkled on top.

There is absolutely no cabbage in this dish.]

❧ main course

[dramatispersonae]

Re: ❧ main course

[iwantcandy]

[For the main course, there are two dishes! The first, and larger dish, has rice cooked with chicken stock tossed with cabbage, tomatoes, and dragon fruit. Some half slices of tomato are arranged around the edge of the serving plate. The roasted chicken wings, that are spiced with paprika and a splash of soy sauce, are set atop it in a circular pattern with one in the center. The second dish has cooked rice that has been tossed with cabbage and tomatoes, and dragon fruit, but it has not been cooked with the stock nor does it have any wings on it. ♥]

❧ dessert

Re: ❧ dessert

[iwantcandy]

[And, for the finale, there is bread that has been soaked in raw egg then covered with cinnamon. Over top of one side of the bread, there is mashed banana, and both sides are grilled evenly. Each slice of bread is cut into a simple flower shape.]
