Drizzle of Yum: First Hot Dog in 14 Years...
http://drizzleofyum.blogspot.com/2010/02/first-hot-dog-in-14-years.html
Indulging on a daily basis. Friday, February 19, 2010. First Hot Dog in 14 Years. About a month ago after a long day in the emergency room (Kyler was dehydrated from food poisoning) I was starving and headed to Hyvee. I was ravenous, so went for every sample I could find. Including a hot dog from Missouri Legacy Beef. February 21, 2010 at 3:42 PM. Ive known you for 10 years and didnt know you had a hot dog aversion. Perhaps it was because I dont eat them either. ;).

Drizzle of Yum: NYC Visit
http://drizzleofyum.blogspot.com/2010/02/nyc-visit.html
Indulging on a daily basis. Tuesday, February 9, 2010. I haven't blogged in a bit, because I was on a little NYC vacay. It was amazing to see my friends, hang out at some of my old haunts and snack on some of my favorite food. Here are some highlights:. Lamb kebabs skewered with onions, green peppers and tomatoes, grilled to medium rare (the best for lamb, in my opinion), with tangy lemony potatoes. Eggplant Parm Hero at Salumeria Biellese. The best, in the world, ever! Like I said, extra napkins. We wen...

Indulging on a daily basis. Saturday, October 31, 2009. These took a while to make (had to simmer the filing for about an hour to get it nice and tender), but they were well worth the wait. Kyler slathered his in cheese. I didn't because I'm not a huge queso fan (pardon the shadow here). 1 tbsp vegetable oil. 1/2 red pepper sliced into strips. 1/2 green pepper sliced into strips. 1 small yellow onion diced. 1 clove crushed garlic. 1 1/2 cups chicken broth. 1 diced medium sized tomato. 1 tsp dried oregano.

Drizzle of Yum: Roasted Brussel Sprouts with Pecorino Romano
http://drizzleofyum.blogspot.com/2010/01/roasted-brussel-sprouts-with-pecorino.html
Indulging on a daily basis. Saturday, January 16, 2010. Roasted Brussel Sprouts with Pecorino Romano. My friend Beth raves about her brussel sprouts recipe so much that I figured it was time to give it a try. Good God.she was right! Roast halved brussel sprouts with plenty of extra virgin olive oil (slow and low at 350 degrees for 45 minutes), season to taste with salt and freshly cracked pepper, and sprinkle with 1/4 cup of grated Pecorino Romano before serving.

Drizzle of Yum: February 2010
http://drizzleofyum.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Indulging on a daily basis. Monday, February 22, 2010. Mushrooms are my very favorite vegetable. They're versatile, earthy and add a notable dimension to any dish they're worked into. Pair them with root veggies and barley and you've got an inexpensive hearty meal. Also, this recipe is ridiculously easy to make. 4 cups low sodium chicken stock. 2 tbsp soy sauce. 2 cups mixed chopped mushrooms (I used shitake, white button and crimini). 3 carrots, cut into 1 inch pieces. 2 yellow onions, roughly chopped.

Indulging on a daily basis. Monday, November 30, 2009. Sweet and Sour Chicken. I'm not entirely sure where my mom found this recipe, but she makes a pretty great sweet and sour chicken. It's a bit time consuming to make since you have to batter and fry the chicken, but I think it's worth it for the final product. 1 1/2 pounds of boneless chicken breast. 1 large green pepper cubed. 1 large red pepper cubed. 1 large yellow onion cut in large pieces. 1 can sliced water chestnuts. 1 1/2 cups bean sprouts.

Drizzle of Yum: December 2009
http://drizzleofyum.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Indulging on a daily basis. Wednesday, December 30, 2009. This past weekend I was in Chicago visiting some girlfriends from college. We decided to save money and make brunch at home before a bloody mary bender. We found a simple, satisfying recipe in a Giada De Laurentiis cookbook (recipe can be found at link). My friend works at Naha. And brought home an amazing loaf of cabbiatta, which made the sandwich really stand out. I consider myself a bloody mary connoisseur and was very impressed by The Bad Apple.
