Bleu Rosemary Chicken Alfredo



This was served with oven toasted garlic bread which had a bleu cheese rosemary "butter" on top. We are putting this recipe in moratorium for special occasions only. It is 14 different kinds of awesome and we don't want to ruin it for ourselves. ;o)

Mouthgasm.





Ohmyfuckinggod. Brunch today was so amazing I wanted to rub it all over myself. There are moments when you cook something and you are pleased and you enjoy the food...
Then then are moments of pure unadulterated mouth-watering hedonistic culinary success. This was the latter. We had grilled chicken served on warm French baguettes dressed with a Rosemary Bleu Cheese sauce. Words and pictures just do not do it justice. It was divine. It induced mouthgasms. Boston Market wishes they made sandwiches this good (and I do enjoy Boston Market). Or, as Joe put it, "Boston Market can suck my left nut."
I will make these sandwiches again and soon. Mmm, sweet carby death.

Beef with Peanut Sauce


This was a beef satay inspired dish. No bamboo skewers. The sauce was a spicy peanut sauce (made with peanut butter, not actual peanuts..). The meat and sauce were awesome. However, the true standout was the accompaniment. I made a coconut basmati rice and it was DELICIOUS. The spicy and the sweet complimented each other perfectly. My only complaint is that there was not enough fire. It is hard to find any spices in the local grocery stores that actually pack any sort of punch. We like it SPICY. I think we need to go to a specialty grocer and stock up.

Shame on me

The internet has been down so I have not been posting. I have made some pretty frakkin' spectacular things in the past week or so too. What a pity!

Among the highlights..

-Oven "fried" chicken, or, as Joe named it "Go Suck A Lemon Chicken"

-"Black and White" chocolate peanut butter cookies

-Cream pie milkshakes
