Toasty Cheese and Chile Jam Sandwiches

I used the spicy plum jam that they use at the cheese shop to make this. I should’ve added more cheese, but I didn’t realize it until after the fact. Even so, pretty tasty.

Sauteed Corn with Bacon and Leeks

I made this with the pork burgers, I thought partially about using it as a main and combining it with rice or something, but ended up just serving it on the side. I did eat it as leftovers with rice and chicken. Overall, nice flavor.

Stir-Fried Noodles with Chicken and Broccolini

I wasn’t reading this right, so I started to double the sauce and just finished doing that and ended up almost doubling the noodles and using the whole box. Other then that things went smoothly. I substituted in some hoisin sauce, finishing the jar then moving into the new jar of oyster sauce. So probably didn’t have quite the same taste as the normal recipe. I did like the add of the serrano vinegar, but I also added some sambal olek with the leftovers. Pretty good.

Sloppy (Pork) Sammys

By the end of the week, I was thinking about sloppy Joes, so I made them shortly after that. I did forget to pick up cocktail buns, so I ended up getting some King’s Hawaiian at the store that don’t like to much. Some pickles some yellow mustard and a little sweet bun was a nice add with the pork, tomatoes and spices.

Pork Burgers

I got a combo of beef and Mangalitsa pork, and uses that, I should’ve just gotten the mixture and made my own patties as these were a bit…well not great. Anyways the flavor was pretty good. Made a good meal.

I bought 4 pounds of Roma tomatoes from Blue Gate and roasted them. They’ll make an appearance next week.
