Dinner for 5
Sesame Steak Salad with Asian pear
Noodles with Soy Dressing
Lemon Cheesecake  

Tonight we are having a casual Friday Night Dinner. Tomorrow we are having the official 'Friday Night Dinner' for my son and seven of his friends as a birthday celebration. The complicated and busy lives of working teens meant a Saturday date would work better. 

I thought one of my adult nephews might drop by tonight so I was keeping the menu simple and easy to expand for 6 if he could make it.  Unfortunately in the end it was only us.

 A yummy stir fried steak salad topped with toasted sesame seeds, asian pear and green onions.

Noodles with a simple soy Dressing.  I could eat these all day long.

Leftover no bake lemon cheesecake from the birthday celebration yesterday.  This is so light and fluffy made with whipped evaporated milk, cream cheese, sugar and lemon jello to set it.  All in a graham cracker crust with a little extra crumbled on top.  This is one of the first successful desserts I ever learned to make, way back when I was in high school.  It is still a favourite.
