Alt, Alt Hotel, big girl pants, celebrate, chicken, delicious, dessert, Merchant Kitchen, modern, mushroom, service, video, widow, Women’s Entrepreneurship Day

had a wonderful lunch today at the Alt Hotel… was there to celebrate Women’s Entrepreneurship Day and hear the stories of four women who are changing the world, or at least their small corner of it…

started with a nice fresh salad…

the space is very simple, but comfortable… and the rooms we were in were bright and modern…

the main course was mushroom stuffed chicken breast with roasted vegetables and a delicious sauce…

when it arrived I was thinking it was kind of small… but then I tasted it… yummy, and filling…

for dessert we had creme brûlée….

one of my all time favourites… and so good… had to kind of gulp it down so that I could take some video of the speakers, lol…

the food comes from the Merchant Kitchen which is right next door to the hotel…

all of the staff were pleasant and eager to make our experience the best it could be…

thinking about what else we might do there…

aroma, big girl pants, colours, mushroom, portobello, slice, soap, waste

had a bit of a giggle today… saw the most beautiful soap slices on the counter in the washroom…

  
sadly, the aroma overpowered me… won’t be using that particular washroom for the next while… but the colours were beautiful…

tonight I made a portobello burger for my supper… 

  
the mushrooms were soaked in a marinade for about an hour and then baked in the oven for twenty minutes…

  
delicious…

this is the second time I’ve made this recipe… and I’ve been pleasantly surprised as to how great it tastes… didn’t miss meat at all… wasn’t sure when I sliced it in half if it would topple over, though… used up the last of the ciabatta buns…

really happy with the way I am using up all of my food purchases without waste… preplanning my meals has certainly helped me make use of everything I cook…

big girl pants, burger, delicious, mushroom, oven, Pinterest, portobello, tasty

just finished my first portobello burger… amazed to say it was delicious…

  
put spinach, grape tomatoes – all that I had (and worked pretty well) – and grainy mustard on an English muffin… 

used a Pinterest recipe where the mushrooms were marinated for thirty minutes in oil, balsamic, garlic, basil and cilantro… baked them for twenty minutes at 400 degrees…

  
had heard many people say how great these burgers tasted but I figured it would just taste like a mushroom…

I will certainly have another…
