(Yes, the same.)</p>
<p>Lunch was a quick taco at Taco Cabana (actually 2 quick crunchy tacos) as we ran around like fiends.</p>
<p>This was supper:</p>

<p>What it is?</p>
<p>I don't know. I invented it. I made gluten free pizza rolls to the freezers and there was a ton of filling left over. So I hollowed out a gluten free baguette, filled it and popped it in the oven for 15 minutes at 375. </p>
<p>Tada.</p>
<p>Quick and easy supper for the over-shopped.</p>BA Tortugahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15057199309459214767noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3854919277573904342.post-2656613136094748702012-12-08T06:43:00.001-08:002012-12-08T06:43:57.318-08:00Friday -- Stupid Technology<p>Well, we didn't have breakfast, but I did make a couple of amazing chicken and bacon subs that have pictures that disappeared, along with the photos of the chicken lettuce wraps from Mama Fu's...</p>

Tortillas!<p>So, we eat at the Cafe Java every Thursday. J has the western omelet, I have bacon, hash browns and fruitl</p>
<p>And coffee.</p>

<p>We grabbed a quick lunch at the Longhorn Steakhouse -- petit sirloins and mashed potatoes. Simple, but nummy.</p>
<p>Then?</p>
<p>TORTILLAS!</p>
<p>I have been working on a decent flour tortilla recipe for years and I found one that I tweaked and tweaked and finally, bingo.</p>
<p><img title="IMG_0958.JPG" src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/-1Wbzybig-nw/UMIL_Dro0KI/AAAAAAAABCg/y6QvNuyLKcw/IMG_0958.JPG?imgmax=800" alt="IMG 0958" width="450" height="600" border="0" /></p>
<p>Tortillas.</p>
<p>So I made Mom's enchiladas (beef and beans spiced up and then cheesed).</p>
<p>OMG.</p>
<p>So. Good.</p>

Had a coffee called an Albino Turtle -- it was too sweet, I didn't finish it, but we did stop and get bacon cheese burgers and fries for lunch.<br /> <br /> Then supper was oven hashbrowns, bacon and eggs. IOW, Breakfast for Supper!</p>

<p>Supper was supposed to be artichoke stuffed chicken. Totally didn't work. :P So, we put all the things we were going to put into the chicken and sides, sautéed them, and put them over pasta. :D Feta cheese, broccolini, spinach, bacon, black olives, artichokes, sun dried tomatoes, white wine. Yum.</p>
<p>Also, I made gf popovers. :D</p>

I'd like to keep track for a year of what we eat -- Julia and I cook a lot, eat a lot, and travel. What a fun way to remember all the stuff we enjoy/experiment with? Also, I love making cocktails, so we're going to be exploring that a little bit more, just to see what happens. <br /> <br /> Today was super-duper busy -- the Christmas parade and art fair was this morning, we had to run errands (groceries and dog food).<br /> <br /> So, food.<br /> <br /> We had breakfast at Dos Salsas -- Julia had migas and I had my favorite breakfast: bacon, beans and potatoes. Then we headed downtown and had an iced coffee.</p>

I'm shooting for Fritos with melted cheese and salsa. ;-)<br /> <br /> We'll see how that goes. ;-)<br /> <br /> Much love, y'all.<br /> <br /> BA</p>BA Tortugahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15057199309459214767noreply@blogger.com0
