2014 - Week 46 Cooking Results

Tuna Melt (mine using same process as last week)

Little bit more of this, little bit less of that, used things that were hanging out in the fridge.  Much more to my liking.  The process to finish?  Still remains fantastic.

Spiced Lamb Patties with Nutty Garlic Sauce

This was easier then I thought it would be to make and very good.  Between the timing of doing the meat and the sauce while the meat is cooking and the toppings while the second batch is cooking.  Good stuffs.  I have almond butter left now, so we'll see what else we can do with that (or this again)

Tenderloin Pizza (idea from AB Live)

Delayed until today.  While picking up a tenderloin from B&B Joseph and I had a short discussion with the people behind the counter about the pizza that was made and how it was done.  They had pretty good sandwiches (ok ingredients in pretty good bread).

All Pork Hot Dogs

om nom nom.  Is this becoming a delivery system for the Garlic Dill Sauerkraut?  Perhaps, but what are you going to do.

Turkey and Chorizo Burgers with Guacamole

We had this twice.  So I made it the first time (changing the ratio from 1:2 to 1:1) and then made it again later in the week (because Joseph wanted to have the pizza to).  Both times were quite good.

Baked Ziti with Sausage

So I don't know what it is about the Hy-vee I go to, but they just don't seem to carry ziti, ever.  So usually when it calls for ziti, I just swap it straight out for penne cause I know it won't be there.  This recipe had weaknesses.  Simple, good, but it seems to be under seasoned.  I addressed it a bit, but even so.  Anyways it disappeared quickly.

After some minor convincing we ordered a set of Cake Truffles from Momofuku Milk Bar.  They showed up the day we had the ziti.  These are amazing.  I don't know what else I can say about them.  ahhhh-maaaaaa-zzzziiiinnnnggg
