Microwave city

These recipes are ridiculous and delicious
All simple microwave recipes...meatloaf, quiche, cinnamon rolls, muffins, cake...all up my alley

Give me blood!

Stumbling across this picture is leading me to wonder...why would people want anything past mid-rare? All of the flavor is gone past that point! What're your thoughts? I am somewhere between blue rare, and rare.

Sashimi

Ahi Tuna. Aka Yellowfin. 

AKA Delicious

This was my first shot at Sesame Seared Tuna, and I must say it was mighty successful. Thanks to a good friend of mine, I was gifted a few pounds of sushi grade tuna to do as I wished with it.

Peanut Butter and Maple Fried Chicken Sandwich with Applewood Smoked Bacon on a French Baguette

Rather than recipes from here on out, it'll more so be simple "how-to" updates. This sandwich was definitely one of my masterpieces. The trick is have great ingredients.

Rise and shine

So I'm doing this a little bit different. Everyone loves breakfast their own way, and this is the way I like it.
Big.
Hearty.
Delicious.

Eggs over easy, crispy breakfast potatoes, juicy bacon, tasty lamb sausage, buttery biscuits, and good ol' gravy.
The only thing this meal is missing, is dessert in the form of french toast, pancakes, or a waffle.

Steamed Spiced Chai Maraschino Cherry & Coconut Granola Upside-Down Banana Cake

The title pretty much describes it all. My recipe made six hefty cakes, cooked in a 6-spot muffin pan. I steamed them in a large rondeau, as I do not have an oven. They were mighty moist, and deliciously dense. Simple to make, even more simple to enjoy.

Ingredients

4 medium sized ripe or over ripe bananas

1.5 cups whole wheat flour

⅔ cup extra light olive oil

½ cup organic cane sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

1.5 tsp baking powder

½ tsp baking soda

a pinch of salt (optional)

Chai Spiced Maraschino Cherries (farmer's market)

Coconut Granola

Procedure

Before mixing ingredients, place two inches of water in a large rondeau, and bring to a rolling boil.

1. First mash the bananas well or puree them with a hand blender.

2. Now add the oil, sugar & vanilla to the banana and blend well.

3. Sieve the flour with the baking soda and baking powder.

4. Fold the sieved flour really well.

5. This folding step is important as you want the whole bread mixture to be one and mixed evenly.

6. Add cherries and granola to each muffin spot, then cake batter on top.

7. Place the pan in the boiling water, and place heavy lid on top (cover top of muffin pan with parchment).

8. Steam for 10 minutes.

Top with whipped cream and voila!
