(A suggestion for a birthday menu during Christmas)

Courses Little meatballs and sweet & sour vegetables Classic Italian antipasto Rice timbale with stone bass Rolled roast pork, stuffed with spinach and mortadella Green salad with apples and walnuts Cocoa Christmas spiced bread Seasonal fruit Wine Italian Prosecco Malvasia di Pantelleria

This is a menu that everybody can realize and its best peculiarity is every dish can be prepared in advance: appetizers, rice timbale to be baked in the last minutes, rolled roast pork that you have to preserve in the refrigerator and, finally, the cake. You have only to slice apples just before dressing and serving green salad.
We suggest this menu for Christmas but you can make it in every moment in the year; the only thing is to change dessert.
We suggest a good Italian Prosecco for accompanying all the courses. Prefer a dessert wine with the cake.
