What did you cook today?

Over the weekend I mixed up a batch of my whole wheat pizza dough but with everyone going here and there, it never got used. Tuesday night after work, I used it to make a half spinach and mozzie - half tomato and mozzie pizza. A place nearby made the best spinach pizza and garlic knots but they obviously don't work by recipes because neither item was ever the same twice.

Yesterday was flank steak marinated in olive oil, juice of one lime, 2 huge garlic cloves, ground pepper, kosher salt, dried oregano and a teaspoon of ground rosemary. I let it sit for an hour and a half, grilled it medium rare, let it rest and sliced it. I served with steamed asparagus. After the weekend we needed to lighten up!

Tonight will be a recipe from Giada DiLaurentiis's "Everyday Italian". I'm considering Chicken Saltimbocca since I have some San Daniele proscuitto in the fridge. With it I could make some broccoli di rabe or green beans- they're gorgeous right now. We'll see what looks good at the store.

Then Southwest Chili.

And finally I'm still working on them, Chocolates for the family and friends. Truffles, peanut butter cups, truffles, other assorted filled treats and did I mention truffles?

Beautiful veal. The only hangup I had was the wine was to fruity, I used Sauvignon Blanc but should have gone with a dry and loamy chardonnay.

Side of simple homegrown chard.

Microwaved a hot pocket for lunch. blich.
