Week 5 - Let's Catch Up!

Well hello there!  I get so used to being here every day, that when I miss two days I feel like I have been gone for weeks!  I apologize for my absence - I was vacationing in Mexico  gambling in AC  catching up on sleep - alright, truth be told I was being culinarily lazy.  I hardly made anything and even forgot to take pictures of some of them!  Ah well, let's catch up.

Let's start with breakfast.  I made cottage cheese pancakes Tuesday morning and realized I never told you about them. Probably because they were hardly memorable.  In the pancakes defense, I have made this Smitten Kitchen recipe before, and they were wonderful.  Who would have thought to put cottage cheese in pancakes?  And not even pureed into smoothness - just in their natural lumpy state.  But this time around, something was being fickle - the pan, the heat, the batter - I'm not quite sure.  They stuck over and over and when they weren't sticking they were burning.  But like I said, they've worked before, and regardless of their ugly state both my boys ate three a piece and left their mommy with only two!


Friday however, breakfast success - baked eggs in spinach and mushroom.  Similar to the eggs in tomato recipes I made earlier, sub lots of spinach and mushrooms and cream.  This is what breakfast should be - always.

Saturday night I made potato pizza for myself and some friends.  Yes - potato on pizza.  We talked about the fact that none of us would have even considered such a topping on pizza before.  It was delicious - the rosemary helping significantly like it did in the bianca pizza.  We did, however wish for cheese.  Perhaps it's pizza naivete to say that all pizza requires cheese.  And we're not saying all pizza requires it, but felt this pizza did.  But not a mozzarella - a strong cheese, with a bite - perhaps feta (though this could just be my love affair with feta speaking out).



Well, it's Sunday.  The start of week 5 - woohoo!  But I kicked off the week with zero recipes today.  Eh - that's a negative way of looking at things.  Rather, how about we focus on another 14 recipes down!
