Cooking
We're hitting one of my newer culinary heroes, Donna Hay, pretty hard this week.
Saturday night, it was this easy & spicy wrap.
Honestly, it took as much time to chop ingredients and assemble as cook the beef. That easy.
Tortilla (we had some super-sized, organic ones in the refrigerator) spread with hummus, then topped with lettuce, tomatoes (red onions, but somehow, we didn't buy one), and strips of chili paste-rubbed steak (I think Matt used rump; mine wereMorningstar Farms meal starters).
DH's recipe also calls for chili sauce, but trust me: you won't need it. We were both breathing fire with just the chili paste, and I even cut the amount down for mine.
But, the hummus and tomatoes served as a nice, and cooling, balance to the steak.
Twenty minutes, tops, and you've got a flavorful and filling dinner.

- Happy Halloween!
It seemed like such a great idea…pumpkin and black beans. I think I was pulling something out of the freezer when it came to me. There was a little leftover pumpkin in there and I thought, “I bet that would be good in chili.” I mulled it over...
- Five-napkin Sandwich
It's not that we're deliberately trying to eat healthier, or anything. But Matt & I have been drawn, of late, to various vegetarian cookbooks I've had in a pile (in a pile because Matt hasn't yet found the time to build a new set of shelves)....
- Worth The Repeat
Matt insisted we'd make this before; it wasn't until I actually took a bite that I had that 'oh, yeah...I remember this! moment. Apparently, we have made these Nigel Slater Steak Sandwiches. But with a sandwich this good, we didn't mind...
- Man Food: Getting Ready
So, Blog Party#11 is this weekend, and in a sort of preparation, we put together some rather tasty Chili Dogs. Matt made chili, both a beef and vegetarian version, using a recipe from (appropriately enough) The Way to a Man's Heart: Romantic Recipes...
- I Hear That Potato's One Hot Tart...
First, I have to say: Galactica rocks! I can't wait for next Friday's finale, and at the same time...I don't want it to be over. Sigh... Enough of that. Back to the food. Friday's menu was a Steak Sandwich and Chile Potato Tart with roasted...
