me!

I need to not eat out and learn how to cook..so this is going to be my journal of me doing that! yay!




My best dinner to date!
Starting with the broccoli going clockwise:
“The best broccoli” [Recipe Link] Story: LP had broccoli left over, so I wanted to cook it before it went bad…so yea!
“Eggplant - Easy Good and Tasty” [Recipe Link] Alterations: Pre-cooked the eggplant for 7 minutes on each side in the oven.  Didn’t have italian dressing so I used balsamic vinaigrette instead, which worked fine.  Also, instead of dicing the tomatoes, I put them on the eggplant as slices.  Story: Sophy’s friend Phi came over and cooked us dinner (which was really tasty…AND her first time cooking!)  There was a leftover eggplant…so I wanted to use it.  Google eggplant recipe and BAM!  BEST non-asian eggplant EVER!! SOOO YUMMY!!
“Tri-Colore Orzo” [Recipe Link] Alteration: Added cranberries!  Story: Went over to Anh’s (who’s the author of Confessions from the Cookie Jar!  Visit her!) for dinner and she made this!  It was sooo yummy so I wanted to make it on my own =D
“Lemon+Lime+Herbs Checken Breast” Recipe: 2 chicken breast, 1 lemon, 1 lime, a few shakes of: rosemary, garlic salt, oregano, italian herbs, pepper, oregano then marinate and cook! Story:  I made this one on my own!  Would have let it marinate overnight if I had the chance.
