Adventures with Food

Normally, I don't cook. Ever.  I'm one of those people who manages to make the most disgusting food imaginable unless I follow a recipe.  My concoctions are so gross that if I had a dog, my dog probably wouldn't eat it.

My poor non-existant pet dog.  He would look up at me in pain as my attempt at culinary awesomeness failed, and he would suffer the consequences.

However, I must report that tonight my attempt at being an iron chef was met with success!!!

Ingredients:

1. Chicken
2. Chipotle Mayo
3. Toast (or tortilla if you want to make a wrap, or bun, whatever. Something to make your chicken and veggies and mayo not fall all over yourself)
4. Zucchini
5. Summer Squash
6. Red Bell Pepper

Why these ingredients??

1. Chicken is delicious
2. Chipotle mayo is the best thing ever invented.
3. Toast is wonderful to eat any time of day.
4. These veggies are the only ones I like to eat.

These are pretty widely available, so if you're missing finding these ingredients should be pretty easy.  They also should be a pretty reasonable prices too.

But if this sandwich is so good, how do I make it?

I'm getting there.

1. Cut the veggies into slices.
2. Flatten out the chicken. (you can use a rolling pin or if you have one of those tenderizer hammer do-dads, you can use that.)
3. Cook the veggies and chicken. (don't cook the veggies until they're translucent, just so they're brown.  And you'll probably need some oil)
4. Season your veggies with salt and pepper midway through cooking.
5. Make your toast.
6. Cover toast with Chipotle mayo.
7. Assemble Sandwich.

SUCCESS!!! Awesome sammich created! And in less than 30 minutes.

 Enjoy your sammich.  Smile with pride in the success of making and yummy delicious dinner.

 

 



I don't think I'd be more happy than if I was Willy Wonka ripping on the kids visiting the chocolate factory without them noticing.

One of the many hilarious parts of the movie!

 

Or the part when Violet takes the gum and starts chewing it, even thought Mr. Wonka said it wasn't finished yet.

 

 

Bwahahahahaha!!!!!

 

What have I learned about when my cooking adventures actually work out??

 

1. I'm really happy eating.
2. I think I'm a master chef.
3. I think I'm Willy Wonka.
4. I want to watch Willy Wonka.

And since I'm feeling in the Wonka spirit... Here's a clip. Enjoy!
