:up:
 
how is the cooking going jello?
 
I gave it up man. Too much work. It's all Subway and fast food now when I'm not working. The 5 days I work I just eat there so I really don't need to cook anything for myself anymore.

This was back when I was doing P90x and all into being healthy. That's soooo last year.
 
this was a fun thread
 
kato I love mexican food too. It can't be that hard.

Where's Juror? He's mexican.

:rotfl: i'm more mexican than he is. next time i make some standard chili sauce, i'll shoot that recipe along. have been experimenting with a recipe someone else gave me and just about got it down right. in the meantime...

texas pesto

3/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
2/3 cup fresh sweet basil
1 jalapeo, remove seeds, rough chop
3 cloves garlic, pressed
1/4 cup pecans, shelled
1/4 cup feta cheese
1/4 cup green onion, chopped
olive oil
red wine vinegar
ground black pepper

you'll need a food processor for this, can't really get the consistency right in blenders.i use one of the mini-processors for this, a 3-cup size and it's perfect.

no large stems on either the cilantro or basil, add to processor, give it a few spins to rough-chop the leaves. add garlic, onion, pepper, nuts and and cheese and give it a few more spins. add some ground black pepper, hit HIGH and start to drizzle in some olive oil. if you can't drizzle it in, had a half-tablespoon and hit HIGH, turn off and add another half-tablespoon, and so on. Generally add about 2 tablespoons in this process. if you like your pesto wetter, add more.

should be left with about a half to 2/3 cup of pesto. set in a glass dish and cover with saran wrap at room temp for at least one hour. when you're ready to use, loosen it up with a few shakes of red wine vinegar, maybe a touch more of olive oil and more ground black pepper.

cook your pasta, drain and then stir this pesto in. it's good enough to eat like that with a little of your favorite grated cheese. or what we do a lot, like tonight, is add a chicken breast (chopped) that i grilled on sunday along with some halved cherry tomatoes and stir that in with the pesto and pasta.
 
awesome thanks bb

i'll try that soon
 
Im a big fan of cooking. Do it many nights a week and usually all weekend. Would consider doing it for a living if I could clear these school loans.

I do it for a living and it is hell on your body and social life.

ITs great if you want free booze and to fuck waitresses all week.
