Yum! This was an amazing pseudo-homemade appetizer.
We had company for dinner, and started with eggplant cutlet burrata cheese bruschetta (yum!). They brought a lovely salad for a side dish, and I made squash scampi with shrimp and scallops. Since we had guests, I whipped up a dessert I make with some frequency in the autumn- Earl Grey poach pears- and used the pears as a topping for gingerbread I had leftover in the fridge.
