My flickr stream has been filling up with lots of photos of food so I thought I’d share a few recipes that I’ve been trying out this past week.
Last night I made this really yummy tomato + chickpea dish. I swapped the oregano and parsley for fresh basil and made brussels sprouts for a side. It was so quick and good. I’ll be making it again soon!
Saturday night we had a belated St. Patrick’s Day party of sorts and made Dublin Coddle and Beer and Whiskey Cupcakes. I used this recipe for the coddle minus the sausage and plus an apple. I’ve tried a bunch of coddle recipes and this one (with the tweaks) is my favorite! It’s so delicious, but not the most photogenic dish so I’m going to skip right to the car bomb cupcakes…
Joel and Scott made the cupcakes without much help from me. They followed this recipe perfectly. The cake is delicious and moist. Once they cooled they carefully cut out the centers (without cutting the bottoms),
and then piped in the bitter chocolate and whiskey ganache,
and finished with an Irish Cream frosting.
I think the only thing left to say is, “Yum!”
