So, I had someone over last night and made a yummy dinner... Cod, marinated all day in lemon, butter, and herbs and then baked in the same... A nice whole wheat linguine... brussel sprouts tossed in bacon and the fat from the bacon and then roasted to a happy place in the oven...
Unfortunately the pasta was a bit under cooked (by a minute or two) and the fish was over cooked (also by a minute or two... if only I had switched out their times!)... But the sprouts were freaking delicious... Though my dinner companion did not seem to appreciate their beauty. Luckily, he brought a more than decent bottle of wine so he is forgiven.
This morning, the amazing brussel sprouts were tossed in a hot pan again to get warm, then eggs and seasonings were added... Pop that under the broiler for a few minutes with a few pieces of fresh buffalo mozzarella, and - poof! Yummy frittata!

ReplyDeletedon't you hate when that happens? It has happened to me a hundred times-- I think that I will prepare a really nice meal for zac that will be ready right when he pops in the door-- and everything ends up too chewy or crunchy or something.
It sounds like you had fun anyway though!
and that salted coffee thing was really good advice.
