2015 - Week 30 Cooking Results

Pizza with Sausage of some kind from Underground Meats (cause I can)

i used the pepperoni. I wasn't sure if there would be enough left, but after cutting it thin (a bit inconsistent, maybe should've used the mandolin). I did make a mistake though. I used olive oil in the dough and it didn't have the same sort of crispness that I've grown to expect.  So vegetable oil is a must clearly. 

Beyond that, the pizza turned out really good. The pepperoni was fantastic.  

Spicy Carrot Sandwiches with Hummus

Delayed until today. Shannon wanted hotdogs on 7/23 and being that I was thinking about having them this past week anyways, but they got pushed out of the cut.  

Last night, I didn't feel like making them, not that it is hard, just wanted a meaty sandwich. So I used some of the lunch meat that I had bought, some prairie breeze, arugula and various condiments. I had mine on some of the not good enough for customers jalapeño and cheddar and Shannon had hers on the Iowa Sourdough. Good things. 

Bloody Mary Burgers

 The Bloody Mary part didn't stand out to much nut it was still a decent combination. 

Tomato & Chorizo Risotto

i didn't have near as much chorizo as the recipe called for. However, it was a really good chorizo (Underground Meats) and I think it really ended up balancing overall. It may have been that conversion to metric. It was a good meal, nevertheless.  

Bean and Ham Torta

Simple, quick and pretty good.  

Desserts

Blueberry Mousse

this didn't have enough blueberry flavor.
