Six plus attempts later…I am not there. Still…these were tasty! I’m still on a French food obsession phase. Mostly just the salad and bread. There’s a creme fraiche salad in there too. Loving https://www.pardonyourfrench.com/ for inspiration
MMM... pork!

Best salad I’ve ever had
I ate the best salad I’ve ever had in my life at the restaurant at Musee D’Orsay. Also look at this restaurant!!! Doubt I can reconstruct this at home, but I’ll give it a few tries.

Christmas Eve Lasagna
Hadn’t made lasagna in eons….so decided to make it as a family activity on Christmas Eve. As usual, I messed up some steps, but it still turned out delicious!

December 2003
Damn. I finally made a Chocolate Peppermint Ice Cream Cake Bon Appetit recipe I clipped back in 2003. This recipe is almost 20 years old. How insane is that??
A couple of things: 1. I’m amazing at creating a gorgeous cheesecake type crust. Thanks to the small measuring cup hack 2. Making this cake during winter time in Minnesota is ideal. I didn’t need to clear a space in the freezer, just tossed the work in progress out in the deck (12F) throughout each step.
Here it is:
How did I do? It was tasty, but definitely not worth the effort! Better off grabbing a cake from Dairy Queen.

Team building
Just participated in a super fun work team building event! We grabbed a bunch of products from our natural and organic brands and put together an amazing dish. Everyone was a winner, but behold, fried chicken marinated in Annie’s BBQ sauce served with Annie’s Homestyle waffles with strawberry coulis flavored with Annie’s summer strawberry fruit snacks, topped with Cascadian Farms strawberries. Sooo delicious!!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year
Yesterday kicked off the beginning of baking season. Despite a massive tree trimming this past winter, one of the apple trees was still quite bountiful. Most of the apples went to the animal shelter/neighbors/compost, but we save 10 sweet little apples for a pie. Relied on good ole store bought pie crust with sweet sweet pork fat along with the recipe on their box. Delicious flaky crust. 😍

Cinco de Mayo
Decided to have some Mexican inspired food today. The Fronterra beef taco sauce is a solid meal helper. In fact most of the products I’ve tried from them are pretty solid offerings. Had some lovely beef taco meat with peppers and salad. Pretty easy to put together. Yea, had to sneak the pool into the shot.

Avocado toast trend is dead
When Pepsi gets into the avocado toast game, it’s no longer hip and cool. Which means, it is perfectly suited for me! It was pretty tasty, added scrambled eggs and some cherry tomatoes to give the experience a little more.
How to make microwave scrambled eggs: Break egg in bowl, add teaspoon water, beat, microwave 1 min, give it another stir. Done!

Grocery store gyro meat is great!
I’ve been totally craving gyros and haven’t been to a restaurant in ... gosh... a year? Low and behold the local grocery store sells sliced gyro meat. Amazing. Whipped up a grain bowl with creamy also store bought tzatziki sauce. It was heaven! Definitely going to have to do that again.
My mouth is watering just thinking about this:
