Cookig Frenzy

I have been on a cooking frenzy lately, trying out all sorts of recipes (mostly on the weekends, because of my new work schedule). There will be a new posting for Shepard's Pie up probably this evening. So far that recipe and the past 2 have been from Rachel Ray's 30 minute comfort food cookbook. At the beginning I was not a fan of Rachel Ray I'm still not a huge fan, but warming up . Since starting my new job. NBC is always on in the waiting room, and at 2 o'clock the Rachel Ray show is on. I kind of want to put it on mute, but I will admit her recipes are pretty darn good, and pretty darn easy. I will soon venture to my other 500 (kidding) cookbooks soon.
Keep an eye out for the Shepard's Pie.

Cook Off

Yes I know I'm sorry I have been MIA from this blog for a long time. I haven't had any food related blog worthy topics lately. Sorry....
But I am back in business for today.

My friend Shareef and I are going to have an Iron Chef/Bobby Flay Throwdown type of a cook-off. I don't know when yet, but it will be 3 courses: Appetizer, Entree, and Dessert.
Now not to doubt Shareef, but I WILL win dessert. ::Insert evil laugh here::
This is what I was thinking for my menu:
Appetizer: Soup of some sort
Entree: Blue cheese stuffed mini hamburger sliders
Dessert: Too many options, maybe Bread Pudding

Recipes will be up, as soon as I know and we are going to have a "blind" judging panel to decided who wins. I'm thinking the loser does the clean-up.
