Handsome

I found this picture of Adam on the camera when I was uploading some of our food pictures. It was so cute I had to share :)

A New Recipe

I tried out a new recipe the other day. A shrimp and corn chowder. It started with a fennel and leek base and I added some chicken stock, milk, potatoes, corn and shrimp. New recipe!

Philly Cheese Steaks!!!

My lovely mom sent us a bunch of groceries the other day - including several roasts. We wanted to try something a little different so we made Philly cheese steak sandwiches. Adam cut the roast up into really thin pieces and I fried up some mushrooms, red peppers and onions. I got fresh baguette that day so we piled the meat and toppings with a thick layer of mozzarella cheese and broiled it until the cheese melted. I don't know if would really be considered a Philly cheese steak because Adam says in Philly they use cheese whiz but this sandwich was soooooo gooooood that I don't really care.

Classic Nat

Home made chicken fingers is one of the first things I learned how to make (thanks to Liz who first taught me!). I usually make mashed potatoes with it but this time I took fingerling potatoes and cut them length-wise, tossed them in a little olive oil and baked them. They were really tasty, crispy and healthy(ish).

Omelet Time

Mmmmm...omelet. Adam made a super tasty omelet the other day with caramelized onions, ham and pepper.
