Recent Meals We Have Made and Enjoyed (But Not Written About)

We'd have trouble if we posted about everything we made and ate and enjoyed. And you'd get bored. I mean, how self-indulgent are these people? Who cares what they eat for dinner each night? I make dinner too and nobody gives me a medal or anything, right? I agree. So feel free to skip this post (although, if you're here already, it's probably because you're looking for a good time-waster, and don't let me dissuade you). But, for those of you with a morbid curiosity about it, here are some meals that didn't make the blog, in no particular order.

Bacon, egg and cheddar on a Portuguese roll, with Cajun-spiced home fries:


Spicy creole peel-and-eat shrimp:

Spaghetti and meatballs:

Chili, latkes and eggs:

Hawaiian pizza: leftover xmas ham, pineapple, smoked mozzarella:

Sausage, ricotta, and broccoli rabe (pre- and post-autopsy shots):

Shopsin's Senegalese chicken soup:

Curried lobster and eggplant soup:

Cornmeal pancakes and bacon:

Sure! The recipe's from epicurious - http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Shrimp-with-Spicy-Creole-Sauce-4465.

To up the spice - particularly because we were trying to clear up a cold - we added some chopped jalapenos, a whole one to the spice mixture for the shrimp, and another half chopped jalapeno to the worcestershire, etc mixture, along with some sriracha sauce. Also cut down on the butter just a bit. They were quick and easy, and turned out very well.
