Homemade lasagna!

im2smrt4u · 12-29-2010, 06:54 PM

Yum! No waffles?

Penne pasta and andoulie sausage with garlic and basil:

canuckguy · 12-30-2010, 06:08 AM

Holy crap that pasta looks so good! I am on a low carb diet right now too....
I hope nobody saw me lick my laptop.

snowy · 12-30-2010, 09:54 AM

I don't know if they have this pasta brand in Canada, but I like it: PLUS Pasta with protein, Omega-3s and Fiber, from Barilla

Do you mind sharing the recipe? This looks like something my husband would love.

Starkizzer · 12-30-2010, 01:28 PM

1 pkg Penne Pasta (though, any Pasta of choice would work)

1 pkg Trader Joe's Chicken Andouille Sausage pre-cooked (again any brand would be fine this package had 4 sausages in it)

4-6 cloves of garlic

Pine nuts

3 tomatoes, diced

sesame oil

1 lemon

Basil

Salt and pepper to taste

Cook pasta according to package directions. Take 4-6 cloves of garlic, or more if you prefer, slice and add to skillet with about a tablespoon of olive oil. Saute till garlic begins to soften, then add pine nuts and continue cooking till pine nuts are browned and garlic is cooked. Pour over diced tomatoes in a bowl, squeeze one lemons worth of juice and drizzle with some toasted sesame oil. Add basil, fresh is my preference and I love a ton of basil. We didn't have any fresh so we used the frozen cubes. Two work well and the heat from the garlic and pine nuts seemed to melt the cubes fine. Salt and pepper to taste and toss and set aside to let flavors meld.

Slice sausage, this is best if it is pre-cooked. I cut them at a diagonal. Place them in the same skillet that the garlic was cooked in and cook until sausage is heated and starting to brown, toss frequently.

Once pasta is cooked, drain and return to pot. Mix in cooked sausage, and tomato mixture. Serve and enjoy!

Some fresh grated Parmesan cheese and fresh ground black pepper is a delicious addition after it has been dished up.

Just had a can of BumbleBee sardines in oil, with saltines crackers.

Grasshopper Green · 12-30-2010, 08:39 PM

Thanks! I'm going to get the ingredients when I go shopping on Sunday.

genuinegirly · 01-01-2011, 05:30 PM

Didn't have any ice cream in the house, so decided to make a devil's food cake from scratch. Topped it with maple glaze and coconut shavings. Entirely too fluffy, moist, flavorful, and sweet. Always satisfying when I can't stand to eat more than one piece.

BadNick · 01-01-2011, 09:20 PM

two packs of Ritz peanut butter crackers and a tall glass of half/half tea/orange juice

...this kind of Ritz which are crispier and tastier than other PB crackers

Hangover cure: Homemade wheat french toast with vanilla, freshly grated nutmeg and cinnamon and some morningstar farms veggie snausages.

snowy · 01-08-2011, 09:25 AM

Hey, I had Morningstar Farms veggie snausages too this morning--and yes, we also call them snausages

It went with an over-easy egg, hash browns, a piece of toast, and a cup of Cafe Mam Tango, all courtesy of my wonderful husband.

BadNick · 01-08-2011, 01:46 PM

I just ate a sweet Asian pear ...drippy juicy sweet.

Willravel · 01-08-2011, 11:44 PM

Today was cheat day as far as what I eat.

I decided to make homemade tortillas today on a bit of a whim. Even though I tend to avoid bread products, there's something really fun about having tortillas around to just wrap anything in. About 45 minutes later, I had a batch of tortillas, but I realized that I had nothing to put in them. I checked the fridge and found some raw chicken, veggies, and the like, and decided to just to open-face fajitas.

I started by mincing a white onion, half a jalapino (with about half the seeds), three cloves of garlic, and I put them in a pan with a little bit of leftover bacon grease. As I fried them up, I put in a few pinches of kosher salt, some black pepper, some red pepper, and a little bit of chili powder. I turned down the heat and cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and threw them in.

Everything went better than expected. The chicken, onion, and jalapino stuff turned out really well balanced, but still quite spicy. I complimented it with some cheddar and a bit of sour cream. It's comfort food at it's best. I finished it off with a Dos Equis left over from Christmas Eve.

I'll take pictures next time, I promise!

BadNick · 01-09-2011, 11:29 AM

For my brunch I just ate two pita pockets with a couple fat sardines in each, spread lightly with dijon mustard, topped off with plenty of hummus, and finally covered with a thin layer of Tassos Kalamata Bruschetta.

BadNick · 01-09-2011, 04:56 PM

In case my two posts are merged, it is now 7:56 PM and for dinner I just ate a Peking duck roll for my appetizer and two sushi rolls; on left is the Bala Maki roll of spicy tuna inside & eel sashimi outside; on right is the Ichiban Maki roll of spicy tuna, avacado, tempura crunch inside & salmon sashimi outside. In front is tako seaweed salad and a slice of ginger soaked in soy sauce w/a lot of wasabi blended into it. This is after I ate about 2/3 of it.

bagatelle · 01-09-2011, 10:25 PM

^^ Looks exotic to me. I've never eaten sushi...

Chocolate after breakfast... we always get so much chocolate at Christmas, I tend to eat them all up pretty fast.

BadNick · 01-10-2011, 08:10 AM

bagatelle,
where in Europe are you? Reason I ask is way before sushi became popular in the U.S. I was eating raw herring in the Netherlands, always served very fresh and with chopped onion at the places I was taken by my hosts. The herring was so tasty and buttery tender and smooth, I would say it's Dutch sushi

im2smrt4u · 01-10-2011, 08:37 AM

MMMmmm...sushi!!!

Last night, it was one of my homemade pickled eggs:

This morning, just a Kashi granola bar...Not nearly as tasty...

What is that "sauce" on the salmon? We love salmon I get it from COSTCO, I buy the pieces with herb butter (yeah I know...bad...but so good)
How about what you "did" with that salmon......
Try the chicken soup from COSTCO...yum.....

im2smrt4u · 01-13-2011, 02:51 PM

The sauce is the reduction in the first photo. Starkizzer should be able to give more detail as she made it.

I wanted to use that beer in something since it had become way too tart to drink but too expensive to pour out, so she came up with what you see above.

Starkizzer · 01-13-2011, 10:55 PM

The reduction was Lost Abbey Angels Share with some sugar, the juice from one orange, orange zest and a handful of dried cranberries. Cooked down until it thickened some.

BadNick · 01-15-2011, 08:13 PM

The local market had a good deal on strawberries so I got a couple quart boxes. Tasty but not sweet enough for my taste today so I sprinkled sugar on quartered berries and let them sit for a couple hours. I just devoured the whole bowl full.

snowy · 01-16-2011, 10:55 AM

These yeasted waffles: Belgian Yeast Waffles: King Arthur Flour

Oddly, I wasn't the one cooking. My friend made them. This recipe is definitely going to become a part of my repetoire, though.
