| Massaman Curry with Pot Stickers by Marietta September 20, 2009 |
http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Chicken-Massaman-Curry/Detail.aspx
- cut coconut milk to small can (5oz), added water as needed
- used chicken thighs (removed skin after searing)
- syphoned off oil/fat at end
- used block Tamarind (first time I tried it, and it was the flavor I was missing from the restaurant version!)
Pot Stickers (from October issue of Everyday Food)
great flavor, but stuck to the pan, so were a total mess on the plate. (prob cheap quality of wonton wrappers I bought) |

| pizza pizza by Steady September 13, 2009 |
large pizza deal with Italian sausage, green pepper, and green olives with 10 classic chicken wings. blue cheese dip. coca cola, fresca, tangerine fanta, barq's root beer.
yum yum, so unhealthy but it's my favourite sin-food delivery.
not too sure the blue cheese dip was a good choice, however, as it made me kinda ill for a while. I'll skip that next time. |

Flank Steak
Button Mushrooms-(sliced)
Broccoli
1/4 Onion
2 cloves garlic
Light Soy
1/4 c Beef Broth

Only fair -- too liquidy (cornstarch might be failing). Better with garlic salt sprinkling on plate. Needs to be thicker sauced. Higher heat during stir fry. |

| Slimmed Mac & Cheese by Marietta September 9, 2009 |
From Food Network Mag -- substitutes cauliflower for some of the usual cheese.
I wouldn't say that its a mimic of my lover, true cheese-loaded mac, but its good (and quick!) as an alternative to the heavy version, ( as long as you sprinkle on some extra salt ).

| Lasagna Rolls by Stacey September 5, 2009 |
| A unique take on traditional lasagna where, instead of layering, ricotta and mozzarella are rolled up inside individual lasagna noodles and then covered with a fresh basil-tomatoe sauce and a romano-parmesan mix. Somehow it tastes better this way...yumyum. |
