:yum:

 

It's from this cookbook called The Passionate Vegetarian there's tons of really great recipes in there...

 

I've also got a vegetarian Japanese cookbook, a Thai cookbook, and a stir fry book that I'll post from when I get home. Tons of great stuff in there.

That just reminded me of another recipe.

 

Portabello Pizza

 

3-4 portabello caps

1 can of pizza or spaghetti sauce

sliced or shredded mozzarella

other toppings of your choosing...

 

This is fixed just like a regular pizza, only use the portabello caps as the crust and throw them in the oven until the cheese is melted...

They usually have to be eaten with a fork, but if they're not toasted for too long, sometimes the mushroom isn't too soggy and they can be eaten by hand.

 

Another easy pizza is to use french bread instead of the portabello or a premade crust... These are usually significantly cheaper than pizza hut and don't take as long (if you count delivery)...

bath...

have you ever watched the FOOD network.

they had this british guy on there, doing

this cooking show on a big stage, for a big

audience. Anyway...he was making a pizza.

He said he could make it before the pizza

guy can deliver one. He made his own dough,

and his own sauce. He used sun dried tomatoes,

and some other simple stuff for his sauce.

The pizza looked easy to make, and looked

damn tastey too! He even showed what you

could do with the left over dough. Ill see if

I can find a link to the recipe.

 

That recipe I posted above is good for you

veggie heads...there is no meat in it.

Not good for vegans though...because

you need to have eggs in it. Although,

you could substitute them with Egg Beaters,

but I never did that, so I dont know what it would

be like. You can also throw some steak or chicken

in the bad boy...bon appetite!

I guess I caught the first episode

of what is going to be a new series.

Its called "Happy Days Live".

Its pretty dope. He cooks in front of a live audience.

I'm a bachelor so my cooking is always simple and easy to clean..

 

 

Grillled cheese on cheese...

 

Grilled Sourdough with butter and Parmesan cheese

Kraft Deli American Cheese

Thin sliced deli ham..

And a nice slice of tomato...

 

Added the parmesan cheese to the outside of the bread after some helpful advice from my "also slightly" overweight father..

this is pato sauce.

Its spicy tomato sauce...its good!

If you dont like spicy, or you do, but

dont like it too spicy. You can do half

a can of pato, and 1 whole can of

regular tomato sauce. But thats

not traditional Chilaquiles.

My uncle like to throw a bit of

some water in his...they should appear to be 'wet'.

[i wish I had a digi-cam.]

Also, I put the * (asteric) next to the bag

of chips ingredient, because thats also

not traditional. Youre supposed to use

corn tortillas. But, I found out you can

use tortilla chips instead. That kinda

saves time (eliminates the warming and

cutting of tortillas, ya know.) I had made

some the day before, so I ate some for lunch

yesterday. Tonight, Im making Double Stuffed

Potatoes...Ill dig up the recipe in a minute.

Double Stuffed Potatoes with The Works

 

2 large Russet potatoes, cleaned and pricked with a fork several times each

Drizzle olive oil or vegetable oil

2 slices center cut bacon, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces

2 scallions, chopped

1/4 cup sour cream

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Salt and coarse black pepper

 

 

Preheat a small nonstick pan over medium high heat. Rub potatoes with a drizzle of oil. Place potatoes on a microwave safe plate and microwave on high for 12 minutes, rotating once. While potatoes cook, add chopped bacon to hot skillet and brown until bits are crisp. Add scallions and cook scallions together with bacon 1 minute more. Transfer bacon bits and green onions to a paper towel lined plate to drain. Allow potatoes to cool enough to be handled, 5 minutes. Preheat broiler to high. Cut potatoes in half and scoop out the flesh into a small bowl. Smash potato flesh together with sour cream until combined using a potato masher. Stir in cheddar cheese, bacon and scallions and season with salt and pepper, to your taste. Scoop filling back into potato skins and place on a cookie sheet. Place potatoes in oven and brown under broiler, 6 inches from heat 5 minutes.

I don't ever watch tv, but I checked the link. If you notice, the "inactive prep time" is an hour and 20 minutes. Probably for the dough to rise, but it wouldn't be bad if the dough were premade...

Tapenade recipe:

 

1 cup Kalamata olives, rinsed and pitted

1 cup Spanish olives with pimentos

2 tablespoons capers

1-2 garlic cloves, pressed

1 cup pine nuts

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice (don't use anything but fresh, c'mon)

1/2 teaspoon dried thyme or basil (or 1/4 cup fresh leaves)

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1-1/2 - 2 cups stemmed parsley, chopped

 

I usually use 1/2 cup pine nuts.

 

Toast the pine nuts very lightly (they burn easily so watch them and turn the toaster oven off as soon as you see them tan the least bit or start to make a sizzle sound) and chop them before putting all ingredients in a food processor or using a hand blender / chopper. Blend it until it's just smooth enough to spread but don't turn it into a paste. Keeps a week in the refrigerator, flavors intensify with age, and is great on crackers, a sandwich or in omelettes or deviled eggs.

 

This is a kick ass appetizer.

yeah, I think thats the time it takes

for the dough to double in size.

You should see him though...he made

that dough pretty fast...and simple too.

 

 

 

-sounds good Steve!

ok, good quick recipe....my homie showed me how to make this. he's a grill king.

 

 

anyway, jalapeno burgers

 

what you need

 

jalapeno peppers

fresh ground beef

onion salt

garlic salt

 

(monterrey jack or pepper jack cheese if necessary)

 

ok, so, dice the jalapenos up into small squares...make them look like relish for hotdogs. ok, now, take a ball of meat and take a nice scoopf of your peppers and start working them into the burger...once they are fairly evenly distrubted throughout the meat, take your garlic salt and onion salt and add a healthy splash of both to your burger ball...now, work the burger over one more time, getting your ingredients distributed evenly, once more...now, fire up the stove or grill (better choice), and cook you burgers...add cheese after burger is cooked..melt hat shit on there...whatever. if you're a weenie about spicey stuff, adda little honey and or worcestershire sauce...just a little of both...for taste. good stuff.

 

the people i've cooked these burgers for all dig them. let me know if you make some and reactions and whatnot.

my man bobby flay can cook some turkey burgers. he uses some brie cheeze about an ounce, and a teaspoon of jam, molds the turkey around it. cooks that shit till it's done, and serves it up with sliced onion, lettuce, tomato, fucking ketchup and mustard optional bitch. that's some shit there.

Life Off The Back of a Can of Campbells

 

Good shit for the veg heads.. I didn't eat meat

for 4 years up until 2002... but this shit kept me

fed. Easy as shit to make, cheap, and busting

out a huge batch is easy as spaghetti... cook

this shit for girls, too... watch 'em swoon. I've

got a dope enchillada recipe I'll post up later, too.

 

 

Broccoli-Noodle Aushwitz

Ingredients: (I'm leaving all the amounts up to common sense. You don't want this stuff soupy, you just want the Cream of Mushroom to act as a sauce... not a soup)

 

1 can Cream of Mushroom soup (Campbell's)

Parmesean Cheese (i.e. Kraft; pre-powdered)

1 bag noodles (I prefer bowtie for this)

Salt

Pepper

Frozen Broccoli.

1 can sliced mushrooms (I dunno the size, the small one)

 

Preparation:

 

In separate pots:

Steam broccoli on VERY LOW in little water (don't burn the shit!)

Cook up the soup till it's good and creamy (creamier the better, duh); I like to add my additional mushrooms while cooking

Boil noodles til soft

 

In one big-ass pot add all ingrediants, stir, add Parmesean cheese as much as desired (the more the tastier), add salt and pepper. You'll be able to smell how good this shit is while it's cooking up...

 

 

P.S. : Fuck Pepsi. That's a character flaw.

Let's get one thing straight... Pepsi is the soft

drink equivalent of Fred Durst. They go overboard

on every advertising campaign, got Brittney Spears

to sell their shitty product, the very name Pepsi

was one of the original names for Coca-Cola,

and after all of that... Coke still has 41% of the

ENTIRE beverage Industry. Drink Coke, they're

evil. Pepsi's lame ass.

 

Not to burst any bubbles.

I like the sweet taste of Pepsi.

But, Coke goes better with Cognac.

If I get the choice...its Pepsi over Coke though.

No bubble has been busted.

Go for it Dr. D!

My parents are both trained chefs. They actually met at catering school. But neither of them chose to do it as a profession, I don't know why. I don't want to sound like everyone else, but my mum is a truelly amazing cook, and I can tell that she regrets not pursuing it as a career. My parents are making plans to move abck to England and open a restaurant, which I think would be absolutely awesome.

 

I think I'm a good cook, I definitely take after my parents (I don't have the patience to type out entire recipes on here). The only thing that's stopping me is I don't know how well I would deal with the pressure of working in a top class kitchen. I mean, I've worked in regular restaurants and those get hectic as hell....working in 10 times that everyday would be hard to stick with.....
