Surprise Eggs

We ate these when I was growing up, and I just loved them. I believe my mother learned to make them from her Depression-era parents (though I could be mistaken), but given the economy I thought it might be nice to recirculate this tasty breakfast. I' (read full article)

Mango Smoothie

So, mangoes. I think you guys heard about the mangoes in the freezer for like, 2 months. I actually managed to do something with them. I thought about mango quick breads and mango cupcakes and all sorts of other mango things, but at the end of the da (read full article)

Chicken Caesar Pasta Salad

I wanted to eat some chicken recently, but I wasn't quite ready to eat the Italian dressing thing again (though there's no particular reason why I wasn't - I just wanted to do something different with it this time). I was peeking around in my Fridge- (read full article)

Queso

I mentioned yesterday that this was a really pedestrian version of Magnolia's Mud. That's pretty much true. I went the super lazy route, not bothering to buy a tomato to make a proper pico, using the last of the pickled jalepenos instead of ponying u (read full article)

BPT Sandwich

You have no idea what that is, do you? Don't feel bad. I didn't either, until I made it up. It's a bacon, pita and tuna sandwich. If you think bacon with tuna salad is weird, you are not alone. Everyone seems to think it's weird until they eat it. Bu (read full article)

Tuna and White Bean Salad

As I'd mentioned Saturday, I still had some beans left to eat, and that I intended to put them together with the tuna salad I wanted to make (the same salad, by the way, that caused me to go over budget). So, here we are. Makin' tuna salad. I did thi (read full article)

Pão de Queijo

Okay, okay. I made the cheese breads. As promised. Here is the link to the recipe I used, but I will, of course, repost it here, as per usual (with my changes in italics, also as per usual). These things are just awesome. They chewy and happy and nut (read full article)

White Bean Pizza

Oh, the last of the white beans. How did I want to use them? I had a lot of ideas, but I'd already made pizza crust which meant for two days I would be eating pizza. As you might guess, I am not complaining about this fact. I would've used canellini (read full article)

Grapefruit and Blueberry Bowls

You guys wondered what was going to happen with that grapefruit curd, didn't you? I fretted for a while over what to do with it, but happily, curd lasts ages in the fridge so you have time to think about it. Initially, I was going to make little mini (read full article)

Hot Dog Pizza

You can use proper sausage for this, and it might be better than what I made. I just didn't want to thaw my sausage and be left with no sausage for the rest of my summer budget stuff. Plus, the hot dogs were already thawed and I had one left. Woo! An (read full article)

Pickled Foods and Feta Relish

I think I might have mentioned before that I have a lot of pickled foods in the house. I remembered that one of the things I have is a large jar of lupini beans. I love these things, but if you buy them in a jar, make sure you rinse them (or they tas (read full article)

Three Sisters Stuff Shells

As you all knew, I have a bunch of pumpkin in the freezer from last winter. I think in the future I might cut the pumpkin into cubes and store it that way, so it's a little more versatile than mashed pumpkin (which of course I could later mash if so (read full article)

Grapefruit Curd

I managed to keep some grapefruits alive and well since... well, since they were in season. I accepted it was time to enjoy them, but I didn't want to just sit down and eat them. I wanted to make something more fun and delicious out of them, and it s (read full article)

Sausage and Lima Beans

I found some lima beans in the pantry, which was a pleasant surprise. After cooking them, I figured I could eat them happily with the second half of the sausage link I had thawed out. It turned out that while I'd forgotten to buy onions, I did still (read full article)

Almond and Date Brown Rice Pudding

I had some brown rice left over from the chorizo meal, and while I was tempted to eat it with piles of salsa mixed in, I was even more interested in eating that salsa with the tortilla chips in the pantry. So uh... yeah. I couldn't really think about (read full article)

Tomato and Artichoke Bake

Well, it seems like since I have so much tomato sauce, I should try to put at least some of it to use. Which might come in handy for people who buy pasta sauce and want something different to do with it. Additionally, by doing it this way, I have a c (read full article)

Brussels Sprouts with Chorizo

I had a great time in Chicago. I didn't take a single picture the whole time I was there, but I remember everything I ate, and I'll tell you all about it in a future post. Future meaning if I ever finish these 57 analysis problems before they're due. (read full article)

Red Bean and Couscous Salad

I think I've mentioned before that P really hates the smaller, Moroccan couscous. Luckily for me, P's not here. I was poking through my pantry, amazed by how organised it can be while still managing to obscure things I haven't seen in ages. Like thos (read full article)

Cheesy Pita Roll-Ups

This is another really, really simple recipe. So simple you can even do it in the microwave (though you don't have to; but I did). It's kind of like the pita nachos, kind of like a Taco Bell cheese roll-up (which I am experiencing incredible withdraw (read full article)

Fried Red Rice

After the chicken and rice, I still had quite a lot of rice left (despite having a guest over). I had considered just eating with some lemon juice on it, as well as that Japanese rice seasoning, as I'm wont to do. But then I realised if I did that I' (read full article)
