Roasted red pepper bavarois with a tomato coulis (or red pepper puree or salad)

Venison racks and red wine reduction with braised red cabbage

Whole red mullet with rosemary

Anything with figs has romance written all over it. Yummy with Port and honey.

Pears in red wine (a bit boring but definitely red)

Top it all off with a Babybel on a cracker

Welcome Nutritionpost! Thanks for the post.

Well I ended up with

Cold puree of beet soup with creme fraise (heart if it is thick enough) and dillweed hear biscuits

Cornish game hens with ligonberry sauce
Wild rice
Cream spinach in a radicchio cup
rolls butter hearts

Raspberry tart (organic) with a grand Marnier chantilly cream and almond crust

It's ok I would have chosen a differen entree plate but hey it's what they wanted.

I also got a Mardi Gras sit down for 10...

Gumbo
shrimp and heart of palm remoulade
trout with crab and almonds in a lemon brown butter
spinach and artichokes
Baby potatoes
Crepes Fritzgerald....orange cream cheese filled with strawberry sauce

So that's what I'm doing but I'd still like to bounce Ideas off you guys.

Like a fruit roll-up. Fruit puree w/ 10% sugar. cook down to a thick sauce, spread on silpat, thin but not transparent, and dehydrate in a low oven 200 degrees, for about 2 hours. You can do wild stuff with it, and combine colors and flavors.
