So I went 2.5 out of 3 in the cooking new things department. Not too bad. The half comes from the fact that I have purchased ingredients for crockpot chicken tacos, but they have been bumped to Saturday. So...the results. I tried "Anytime Quiche"...very very easy. However, next time I will not use any salt. I don't know if it was the combo of salt with the cheese I had in the fridge...but man...so salty that I didn't even give any to the babies. But, I will give it another go and I think they will really like it. My friend Kory said she tried it (with success) with her picky eater and even loaded it with spinach...which I will do too next time. Oh...and she said she had to call it egg pie...but hey...whatever works right? Here is the finished (too salty and veggie-less) quiche.
I also decided to try
Tara's Zucchini and Yellow Squash soup. It was easy too...except for damn I hate getting out the blender (no food processor or immersion blender)...I always make a mess. However, the kids (and mom) love zucchini and since we were having some for dinner anyway I just chopped up a little extra. I also had a lonely Mini Babybel cheese hanging out in the fridge...so there you go. Finished product (and yes I am using my Zaxby's cup to prop it up to get better light...they have the best ice. "Sexy ice" as a friend of mine at work calls it.) Anyway...kids haven't tried this either...but I thought it tasted pretty good!
I'll update next week with the approval rating of the almost-one-year-olds. (Eeek!) And finally...my new recipe I will be preparing this week. I don't think it meets any of the criteria I set last week (easy, cheap, healthy) but I am planning on serving it at the babies birthday party and I need a practice run. Plus...yum...cheese.
Pimento Cheese Sandwiches My sister-in-law has made this particular recipe before and yummo. How did things go for you?
(Why can I not get this to format like I want...ughhhhhhhh!)
