I love potatoes :-) These gorgeous little fingerlings are some of the last remnants from last week's CSA box. I tossed them in olive oil, seasoned with salt, and roasted them at 425 degrees for about 30 minutes in a cast iron skillet with a ...

Simple Broiled Flanken Cut Short Ribs and Easy Brown Rice

Tuesday, August 17th, 2010

I was going to do some galbi tonight, but the lack of motivation is still quite present, so I just sprinkled the meat with some kosher salt and black pepper and broiled them until nicely browned. With some grape tomatoes and a cup of brown Minute Rice, one of ...

Teriyaki Flank Steak with Snow Peas and Pineapple

Monday, June 28th, 2010

This was a decently tasty meal for me just winging it. I didn't like this teriyaki sauce as much as my usual version, but it wasn't bad. The peas were from my CSA box, and I steamed them for about 6 minutes to get them just crisp-tender. ...

Another take on low carb burgers - these I made with 85% lean ground beef, similarly seasoned with salt, pepper, and a bit of Worcestershire; each patty about 1/4 lb and 1/2 inch thick; and grilled for about 4 minutes on each side. To go with it, I sauteed ...

Thursday, June 3rd, 2010

This was a tasty and easy summer meal for a lovely sunny day :-) Doing the low carb thing, we used lettuce for our buns, which worked out very nicely. We didn't miss the bread at all, which was a very pleasant surprise. ...
