Too hot to cook, and too hot to want to eat, so we're doing a mash of a few finger foods. Chicken empanadas, pan-fried spicy prawns, spinach salad, foccacia w/ balsalmic and oil.

Empanada recipe??? Do tell. I'm a huge Mexican/Spanish food fan, and I have yet to find a recipe other than Pumpkin Empanadas (which make me want to toss my cookies!). I watched a fabulous empanada creation on Spain on the Road - but it was non-specific so not much help other than to make me hungry for empanadas!

Tonight's empanadas were store bought, Teach. See the "too hot to cook" part of my post. Empanadas are awesome to make up a huge pan of on a Saturday afternoon and stick in the freezer. I use a simple dough from Epicurious and you can fill it with just about anything. I usually make up a bowl of chicken, peppers, corn, onion, and cheese to stuff 'em with. Though Don convinced me try making pizza empanadas once with sauce and pepperoni, they were only OK. But the opportunities are endless.

My throat and mouth have been bothering me today so it's hot tomato soup for me and it feels so good.

We are grilling steak and baked potatoes tonight. I'm not sure if we will have broccoli or zucchini with it yet. Probably the zucchini since I've had it in the fridge longer. I also bought some yummy fresh sourdough with gruyere, olives and garlic baked in it.

London broil, cauliflower, and potatoes sliced and cooked with onions/garlic in chicken broth. I came across london broil on sale at Vons yesterday, pack of meat that was $23 and some change for $8 and it was two large peices of meat (enough for two meals.) I picked up two packs.

Went to the Grand Central Market and got a burrito de asada at my favorite Mexican place there. They do it just right: perfectly cooked (and somewhat greasy) carne asada, rice, beans, cilantro, onion, and salsa roja. Nothing else. Delicious. But when I eat there, it has to be the only thing I eat all day because they are so damned big.

Yes, Karen!!!!! I stopped in at a local smokehouse to pick up bacon, and on a whim, asked if they had andouille. They had mild, medium AND hot!! WOOHOO!!! I was shocked and totally thrilled. I have tobasco, ancho chile powder, cayenne, guajillo chile powder and the hot green habenero sauce. Unfortunately, I only put in a bit of the ancho and cayenne - and just not enough. Tomorrow I'll dump some of added kick and then heat it up.
