According to this article, the Army is now serving vegetarian meals including “penne pasta with vegetarian sausage in spicy tomato sauce.” Weird.

What I Learned From Food at Wal-Mart
I was on a quest last night at Wal-Mart for puff pasty. I do not cook with puff pastry too much so I had no idea where to find it at other than it was somewhere in our local Super Wal-Mart’s ginormous (now a word…look it up) frozen foods section. My search for puff pasty […]
A Moment To Remember
I know it’s off topic, but even after so many years, I still have to take a moment to remember those who worked to rescue others during 9/11, those who lost their lives during the attack, and our troops overseas. No matter what your politics or food preference, we all want our soldiers to be safe. […]
I Made the Perfect Eggs
On the campout this weekend, I fixed the best scrambled eggs that I have made and I owe it to two things: high heat and fresh ground black pepper. To make the eggs, I cracked a dozen into a nonstick skillet, added a pinch of salt, a pinch of garlic powder, and about ten turns (quite a lot) […]
Camping Vegetarian
This weekend I went camping with my family who, while supportive of my vegetarianism, would not touch seitan with a ten foot pole. (And upon first glance, I cannot really blame them…) Still, I was able to successfully prove that I can go out into the wild, eat not a touch of meat, and never […]
Salmon En Papillote/Cooking With Wine
On Monday, I made salmon en papillote, which is salmon cooked in a pouch of parchment paper. Having watched Alton Brown and my cooking instructor’s sous chef create salmon en papillote, I was pretty (over)confident that I create the dish. I learned the hard way not to be stingy with the parchment paper. That is […]
Review: Fire Wok
On the recommendation of one of my loyal readers (who really should comment instead of email ;)), Tina, Ethan, and I tried Fire Wok on Johnson Drive by the arts theatre despite a promise to ourselves that we would never eat at Chinese buffets again. Our aversion to Chinese buffets comes in no small part from the preponderance of fried […]
Shogun
Tonight Ethan and I went to Shogun Japanese Steakhouse. I have been fairly remiss in not reviewing the restaurant until now because Shogun is the finest sushi place I have eaten and I eat a lot of American-style sushi. The owner, Andy, is also the head sushi chef and does a lot of work in […]
Review: Boudreaux
Are you ready for some cajun? Dominating one end of the new Mission Farms development, a trendy mix of resturants, fun stores, and good food, is a transplant from Saint Joe: Boudreaux’s Louisiana Seafood. When my wife and I went to Boudreaux’s, I have to admit that I was not in the mood for cajun; […]
The Most Amazing Salad Ever
I can say without hyperbole that I had one of the tastiest salads I have ever eaten last night. I went to another cooking class, this one on vegetable preparation methods taught by Chef Cody Hogan from Lidia’s Kansas City. Other than my incessant questions, the star of the evening was a simple salad made from asparagus, scallions, […]
