favourite sandwich?

I invented this sandwich for lunch today.

Meaning that I’d never had one exactly like this before. Crusty bread with lots of mustard grain alioli, thinly sliced onions, pan-grilled chicken breasts and arugula. I think it’s going to become a favourite here at casa az.

What are some of your favourite sandwiches?

(and feel free to add any all-time favourite recipes to the 24-hour diner)

yikes!

Nog is making dinner!

Not sure what’s got into him. This is something he’s been threatening me with since I first met him – to make his special bacon ‘risotto’. Which apparently has little (nothing?) to do with real risotto – the main clue being that this dish doesn’t actually include risotto rice. Fine. It seems to contain some other nice things: bacon, garlic, mushrooms, peppers … and normal long grain rice.

So far I’ve always managed to convince him that taking me out for a tapita would be the preferable option. Except that today, being in the throws of Semana Santa, we can’t actually leave our building.

I have been banished to the livingroom with a glass of rioja to await the result . . . serious role reversal. 🙂

I mean, Nog makes great coffee and occasionally I let him make me toast. Though the last time I was sick with a cold and asked him to make some chicken soup (from a package) it would have been a disaster if I hadn’t stepped in. So I guess you can imagine why I sit here with some trepidation. Luckily there is an unopened packet of Doritos in the cupboard in case it all goes for a burton . . . 😉

You Are Mexican Food


Spicy yet dependable.

You pull punches, but people still love you.

A nice midweek public holiday today.

Well, except that Nog and I are busy working on that big translation job (the one that might end up paying for a lovely holiday somewhere, sometime soon). But then a couple of hours ago we decided it was too gorgeous a day to stay inside – bright & sunny and about 22º – so we went out to Casa Roman for lunch.

Here is where we were, the view from our table, what we had to eat (first 6 pics) …

Now open for business.

This new blog was inspired by my recent post about pre-prepared food. I’ve been enjoying the conversations, suggestions and recipes there so much that I thought a separate more organised blog would help keep it going. Otherwise once it slips off the front page here it will probably get lost forever in the backlog.

So please feel free to drop by with comments and suggestions. 🙂
