We have been having some fun with food lately. Paul got his Big Green Egg for Christmas and we have been enjoying the benefit of his service as he cooks for us on it. There is really no downfall to Paul enjoying cooking as a hobby. I sure love to not have to cook and get to enjoy the deliciousness that he creates and then he often will want to have someone over, so he serves them as well. It is so great! He would love to have been out practicing some more but he has not wanted to brave the weather, and now that it is warm, finally, he is stuck in the middle of tax season. Anyways, here are a few of our culinary adventures.
These are bacon wrapped chicken thighs, stuffed with cheese and Jalapenos. He was going to do half a jalapeno in each but was trying to make it not hot for the kids, so they all got chopped jalapenos. Next time they will be great like a jalapeno popper, with more kick. He did also make some jalapeno poppers, they are so amazing, they may become standard fare!The kids did love these, they kept calling them little hamsters. This is probably as Dawsyn gets very confused as to what kind of meat she is eating and we try to explain what animal it came from. So these looked a lot like little hamsters.
I was really wanting some cinnamon buns, what is even better is this monkey bread, it is more fun to make and eat.
These recipes were found here and here. This was something fun for valentines day dinner. We have tried to do a special supper but the kids had a really rough day that went all crazy. So it looked nice but that is about it. Our crazy life! But we are definitely eating well!
