107/365 – Eggspectations

Saturday, May 8th, 2010

I’m sorry for the hiatus. I swear I will catch up some day. I’ve got all the photos lined up. Life has just been hectic lately: moving back into Waterloo, finishing up my last work term report, unpacking, settling into new classes, signing up for stuff etc etc…

This photo is a bagel I had at Eggspectations on Yonge St.

056/365 – Homemade Goodness

Thursday, February 25th, 2010

With all the gourmet burgers I’ve had the gastronomic privilege to sample these days, I decided to try my hand at making my own burgers. Since I have a Kitchenaid stand mixer now, this was fortunately a simple task to undertake. I took ground chicken and added some finely diced mushrooms and onions, tossed in a couple of egg yolks and a few dashes of Worcestershire sauce nad mixed it all together before pan-frying them. Picked up a few freshly baked buns at the corner bakery and also sauteed onions with yellow peppers. Threw on a few pieces of romaine lettuce and drizzled on ketchup. Voila! Now I know the presentation is a bit lacking (my cooking never was plated very well…) but the tastes were well layered. I’m definitely going to try this again with other variations.

010/365 – Protein and Greens

I apologize for posting a photo of food I cooked twice in a row, but I really wanna document meals I think are worth documenting. Tonight’s dinner was Baked Chicken Drumsticks, accompanied by a simple Romaine, Cremini and Bacon salad with a Homemade Balsamic Vinaigrette.
