I just had a huge meal.  But I'm a breatharian, so it just involved me sitting in a chair.

Cooking up some salmon chowder. Going to be super delicious with a baguette on the side.

My wife served up salmon fried in garlic, ginger and lime juice tonight. The best salmon I've ever had.

Leftover donut.  Boss brought in donuts to work yesterday morning.  There were left over ones that nobody else wanted, so I snagged them and will be eating them this weekend.  I love free food!  Might not be the best thing, but I should be able to make it all day today without having to use food that cost me money!  :-)

Homemade cafe mocha with a ciabatta, over medium egg, ham, and gorgonzola breakfast sandwich.

That sounds phenomenal, we'll have to give that a try. Our last salmon experiment was riesling, lemon juice, and butter, which was only moderately successful.

We used our incredible edible $30 craigslist grill to make Quesadilla burgers - 12 inch tortillas, grilled onions and green peppers, and burgers with jalapenos-cheddar cheese-onion-turkey bacon-taco potion number 19. I'm in heaven.

Awesome! Not much better than a nice garlicky tomato-y cacciatore!

My husband is the genius cook around here, and tonight he's made us a roast chicken with roast potatoes, oatmeal stuffing, and kale. Mmmmm!!

Today: breakfast--3 eggs, breakfast sausage.  Lunch--2 bratwursts (no bun).  Dinner (two bratwurst (no bun).  I had a pear for a snack.  Beverages--coffee, diet root beer, 2 Milwaukee's Best Light, two Stone IPAs.  Tomorrow will probably be the same (minus the pear maybe).

Nice one.

Just had my favourite ol' tried-and-true chocolate avocado smoothie. As usual, the boyfriend begged me to make another serving.

Recipe please!  I can't have dairy, this sounds promising.


I made spaghetti squash instead of wheat pasta the other day, delicious!  It had chicken, zucchini, red peppers, spices, and pasta sauce, all sort of fried together in olive oil.

Zaga, that sounds yummy. I don't see spaghetti squash often in Australia but next time I see it I might buy it to try.

The chocolate avocado smoothie recipe is based on this one. It's easily customizable to suit your needs, e.g. you can use any sort of non-dairy milk and it shouldn't make much difference to the taste. It's very chocolatey, and thick and creamy with the avocado.

No worries! I do use dairy, but I also make a lot of dairy-free smoothies, another thing I've found that is if you use enough fruit, even water can be sufficient as a substitute for milk. I often use frozen fruits in my smoothies which adds enough flavor and texture so that I can skip any kind of milk entirely.

I have found that so many smoothies call for bananas that I usually don't bother.  I despise bananas, no idea why.  So your avocado based one just makes me so happy!

Recent adventures with grantmeaname and esunday

We make this cucumber-onion-tomato salad a lot. Whoever went shopping made the mistake of buying a mango (yuck), but we put it in the salad and it actually turned out really well.


esunday's famous (around here at least) lemon chicken and potatoes.

We are about to sit down to an amazing breakfast: black bean burger, sweet potato latkes, leftover grilled veggies, sauteed kale, and fruit salad.  I anticipate being perfectly full until dinner time!

How did I not know about this until now?!

Do you cook the burger before wrapping in the quesadilla?

Yeah, the burger was grilled separate and only went inside the quesadilla for the length of time it took to melt the cheese. We grilled the vegetables ahead of time too.

Never tried it with a burger, just slices of leftover whatever, but I think it works better if you use green onions instead, and only put the veggies inside long enough to melt the cheese.  The peppers stay somewhat crunchy that way.

Also, I like to add about 1/3 asiago cheese to the sharp cheddar.

We are having the last of the 4th of July baked beans and some chicken legs roasted over a bed of kale from the garden. The kale sucks up all the juices and it's so ridiculously savory. MMM!

- A banana

We met some friends for drinks this afternoon at a place that lets you bring your own snacks, so we had beer, nuts, and cheese.  Not really hungry for a full-on dinner, so I'm now eating an awesome salad: arugula, homegrown tomatoes, and feta, with oil and vinegar.

I might have one of the blackberry lemon blondies I baked earlier today too...
