Greek Chicken Meatballs

This came together pretty quickly, and I served them on flatbread and everyone seem fairly pleased with them (Joseph napped shortly after finishing his)

Beef Burgers (Crooked Gap)

So what do you with a leaner cut of ground beef?  Add more fat.  From some recent bacon cooking I saved the fat, and then added some of it into the beef.  Good stuffs.  We also got a package of buns from Wild Yeast Bakery Des Moines.  Worth saving, so the ones I didn't plan to use, went into the freezer.

Picadillo Tacos

quick, pretty simple to put together, used the Crooked Gap beef.  Had them on smaller corn tortillas.  Good Stuffs

Orecchiette with Sausage, Chickpeas and Mint

This recipe was very simple.  I was not feeling like making a trip out to get mint, so I used some of the dried mint that I had bought for the meatballs.  I don't think it had enough of the minty flavor, but even so, was quite a good dish.  I'm going to have to do this again.

Lightly Fried Cod

Cod, salt and peppered.  Dredged in a bit of flour, and pan fried in a small amount of oil.  Put on some of the Wild Yeast Bakery buns.  Good stuffs.
