Black Bean-Chorizo Stew

They should've just called this chili, or some version of chili. I would've liked to try this with the green chorizo, but did it with the chorizo I get from Crooked Gap (good stuffs). This came together easy, but took time to prepare. Not to bad.

Sausage and Egg on mini Ciabatta

So the idea here was to use the cooking rounds that I have to make an egg patty. The sausage was quite good, but it ended up being a fried egg on top. The rounds didn't sit down as I expected. They started to slowly leak out of the side. I didn't want to weight it down, since it was stainless steel holding in the egg, on a non-stick pan. Didn't want to mess up my pan, so I just let them go out. Anyways, good, but not exactly the presentation I wanted.

Pork Chops...or pork chop tacos...I haven't decided yet.

Pork sandwiches! So there were surprisingly large butterfly chops. I used one, cooked it up using salt and pepper, then after resting a bit, sliced them for sandwiches. That and some sun chips and you have a meal. Worked out well. Now I have another pork chop to do something with. Probably tacos.

Pork Burgers (for real this time)

Yay! I'm starting to really enjoy having sauerkraut on more things. Maybe it is me aging or maybe I just found a really good kraut? Who knows, but anyways, most of my burgers now are topped with kraut.

Green Onion Sausage Pasta

Sautéed an onion until it was a bit soft in a bit of olive oil. Added the green onion sausage, cooked it until it was mostly not pink, then added some red pepper flakes, some dried oregano a bit of pepper. Then added two cans of diced tomatoes, and a small can of tomato paste. Stirred it up and let it simmer while the pasta cooked. I used rigatoni pasta. Once it was cooked I drained it and added it to the sauce to mix it all together. Turned out pretty well.
