Over the past few weeks I’ve been on fire in the kitchen–no, the gas didn’t ignite my shirt.
It started with the Rosemary Corn Bread from the latest Real Simple magazine. Excellent flavor with little bits of corn in the bread. Some of the best corn bread I’ve ever had.
Then over the weekend, I took a bag of spinach tossed it with soy and water and garlic cooked in bacon drippings, topped with crumbled bacon. Whoa Nelly, I think we have a new way to fix spinach.
Last night I made Lobster Tail Thermidor that I saw on 30 Minute Meals. I’ve never made anything from that show that didn’t satisfy. I didn’t do everything the recipe called for, but the outcome was still delicious. The big differences from my outcome and the recipe were:
I boiled the lobster tails for 5 minutes instead of 7-8 minutes
I didn’t save the tail shells (they were destroyed)
I didn’t serve over a bed of baby greens.
