Cooking

Although recipe’s aren’t included with the various dishes, our cooking process is very simple. Basically we stir fry everything on medium heat. If it’s meat, we flip it over when it looks half cooked and add the other vegetables. Vegetables are cut in to bite sized pieces and put in hardest to softest (onion, carrots, mushrooms, garlic, broccoli stalk, pepper, broccoli etc.) The only exceptions to this cooking meal (that I can think of) follow:

Pizza, cooked in the oven for 20 minutes and then turned to broil for a few minutes to make the cheese bubbly
Nachos and other cheesy things were also cooked in the oven for a very brief amount of time
Pasta was boiled and strained. Other stuff was stir fried to go with. Sauce was heated at medium heat in a pot and then everything was combined.

Orange Pop + Vanilla Ice cream = Creamsicle Float

Note: Don’t they look pretty in our matching Coca-Cola glasses?

A slideshow of the making of our burritos. This is what we put in ‘em.

Beans and Chicken (we seasoned with 4 or 5 cloves of garlic, salt, a bunch of cumin (!!!) and a small onion)
Sour Cream
Salsa
Guacamole (a perfectly ripe avocado, half a tomato, most of a clove of garlic and some salt all mashed together)
CHEESE (more is better, cheddar and mozza blended is nice (we just used cheddar though))
Salad (Lettuce, 3 grated carrots (hidden so Adam would eat it (Adam grated it)), a tomato and a half, and a yellow pepper (I like red, Adam likes green, we compromised (no, really, that is a taste compromise)))
Jalapenos (for Adam only)

Bonus: Two were left over for brunch!
