2013 - Week 2 Cooking Results

Skillet Teriyaki Beef and Vegetables (RC Cook's Country December / January 2013)

This turned out very well.  It was nice, balanced and tasty.  And pretty easy to put together.  It would've been even easier if I had not used the smaller carrots that I got from a local provider.

Beef and Barley Soup for Two (p28 Cook's Country December / January 2013)

Skipped for working on the lego project, doing next week.

Chorizo Tacos

So I heard at the cheese shop that a combination of Quark and Chorizo was very good.  They know their business there so I figured I'd give it a try.  So I combined Mexican style chorizo, onions, tomatoes, peppers and rice (I had left over rice).  Added with the quark, some spinach and a little yogurt on a soft tortilla.  They're right, this is really damn fantastic.  Good show, very good show.

Omaha Steak's Hot Dogs

meh.  Eden Farms still wins, this doesn't even come close.  Slightly above Oscar Meyer.

Omaha Steak's Burgers (try again)

I added the seasoning that I got with the box telling me that I had free stuff from Omaha Steaks.  this improved it a bit, but they're still quite bleah.

Poulet Rouge Roast Chicken (Foxhollow)

We had a late lunch with some friends at Woody's Smoke Shack (those ribs, damn they're good) and dessert at La Mie.  By the time we got done, and headed out to do errands  we weren't hungry for a large dinner, so we had one full of cheese, some La Mie bread.  Good stuffs.
