Taco Salad

Good as always.

Sloppy Sammys

I usually add a bit of yellow mustard to the mix, and I ended up using mustard powder since, the yellow mustard was out. Other then that, it went pretty normally. I ended up using the leftover mixture in further taco salad, and to add to the Mac and Cheese.

Red Beans and Rice

I started this Friday night, Soaking the beans. I made some modifications, because who would find pickled pork shoulder around here? I ended up using a bit of pork shoulder. I did add cider vinegar, and a bit of Lola’s hot sauce. I should’ve probably reduced it a bit more, but it was 6:30 already, and I thought it might be pushing it a bit later. I should’ve have probably started when I planned, rather then extending my nap. It still turned out pretty good and I’m looking forward to eating leftovers.

I used Crooked Gap’s andouille sauce for the first time, and It get’s a thumbs up from me. Though I’m not much of a connoisseur, since, you know, Iowa and availability. I did buy a few of them, so I’m looking forward to using them.

I started to take pictures, but then, stopped, I guess.

Chickpea Vegetable Stew

Delayed!

Macaroni and Cheese

So uh…this is supposed to be healthy and looking at the ratios, I was like, that doesn’t seem like enough sauce for a pound of noodles, so I doubled it. This was perhaps a bit to much sauce, but better then what it would’ve been. It was ok.
