Dinner Sunday night...

So i got a new camera, (for Costa Rica in Dec.. Yay! ), and after realizing that most of my friends blog.. and i was the lone, sans blogger... i knew what i must do.. time to start blogging. My dinners wouldn't normally look like this: Broccoli florets delicately arranged like stonehenge around the main dish, but the blog idea had already spawned. I had to step up.

Pretty cool the camera captured the steam like that, i love this camera!


Ok, so here was the meal.. I'll call it: Winter chicken surprise! ... I marinated some chicken, in red wine (Cabernet souveniegn (i should probably learn to spell)), and spices, a dash of chili pepper to spice it up. My base: Trader Joe's marina sauce base, i heated on low for a while, added some chopped up chicken sausage, to give it a bit more flavor & some Italian seasoning. Cooked the chicken in the frying pan, then added the sauce and let simmer, warmed the veggies then added them too. Then all went over, some whole wheat flax pasta on my plate.

Wow... my first blog. This isn't as bad as i thought! maybe i'll keep it up.


(the thing you don't know... most of my more "designer" meals.. looked generally like this.. change the meat, change the veggies add some sauce.... now i'm going to have to get more creative! )

Yup, now you're a 'cool kid'. And can I just say that I'm suffering from TJ's envy? We have organic hoo-ha-ha stores here, but they're freakin expensive. I miss TJs and its selection of fine frozen cuisine...
