Tilapia time!

I made you a pizza.

I’m terrible at making actual recipes, I tend to experiment a lot with the amounts and ingredients, but here are the basics:

Shrimp Carbonara:

1 lb. spaghetti or fettuccine

1 lb. easy-peel shrimp

5 or 6 slices of bacon

1 lb. Alfredo sauce (I used Ragu because I’m lame)

4 tbsp. (1/2 stick) Butter or margarine

Olive oil

Minced garlic to taste

Serrano peppers to taste

Garlic Mozzarella Biscuits:

1 package cheap biscuit mix

handful of mozzarella cheese

Cayenne pepper to taste

Garlic powder to taste

So the first thing I did was cooked the bacon. I cooked it on a baking sheet in the oven because all my big pans were in the dishwasher. Cook bacon at 350 for about 5-8 minutes depending on how you like your bacon. While the bacon is cooking boil a large pot of water for the noodles. While the bacon is cooking and the water is boiling, wash and peel your shrimp (you can use pre-peeled shrimp if you want, but where’s the fun in that?!).

At some point around this time mix together your biscuit mix. Follow the directions on the package (it should just be add a 1/2 cup of water or something) and add the extra ingredients listed above. At this time your bacon should be done, so put it on some paper towels and set off to the side. Spoon your biscuits onto a lightly greased baking sheet and put in the oven for about 10 minutes at 450. You should get about 8 biscuits. Put your noodles in the boiling water and let that cook for about 10 minutes too, stirring occasionally.

In a medium saucepan pour a little bit of olive oil so it covers the bottom, add shrimp, garlic, and serranos and cook on medium heat for about 7-10 minutes. when the shrimp has turned opaque throughout, it’s done. Don’t undercook the shrimp! When noodles are done, drain and put back in the pot and mix in the butter. Then mix in the sauce and shrimp. Chop up the bacon and either mix in as well.

At this point the biscuits should be close to done, before they are all the way done, top each biscuit with a little bit more mozzarella and put back in the oven for like a minute. When the cheese is browned they should be done.

And that’s about it, I think. I’m terrible at writing recipes.

Shrimp Carbonara with Garlic Mozzarella biscuits

Probably my favorite dish I’ve ever made.

Fish and Chips, Goroman style.

This one’s still a bit of a work in progress. I need to get a fillet knife so my fillets aren’t so pathetic. The trout ended up little bland, but still good since it’s trout, but the potatoes turned out perfect.

Shrimp carbonara, masa-crusted tilapia, or blackened trout?

I’m feeling seafoody.

Green Chili Cheese Fries with Bacon. This is about as far as I’m gonna get.

Anyone wanna come over and have a heart attack help me finish?

Homemade green chili and chips. Om nom nom. Was a little worried how it would turn out because I had to basically 1/4th the recipe I make at work, but it turned out amazing.

Tomorrow: Green chili cheese fries.

If you don’t agree, you might as well stop following me.

I just purchased Little Caesars pizza for the first time since I was about 10 when the one in my hometown went out of business. Pizza places are probably one of the easiest retail businesses to keep afloat. How does a pizza place go out of business, you may ask? They make really really terrible pizza, like worse than Domino’s, seriously. Why would I ever buy pizza from a chain that went out of business for making terrible terrible pizza, you may ask? I’m asking myself that same question right now.

That’s a lot, right? I still have to type the notes from my other 3 classes … Contracts will be more than 22 pages, Civ Pro will be right around there, and Property should be way less. So many notes. Then I need to start outlining this weekend. Wooo, law school.

Mmmmm, torts…

I think False Imprisonment is the most delicious torte.

So about a week ago I posted a picture of a sandwich I made at work. Today, I decided (because I was extremely bored at work) to teach you all how to make this abomination sandwich. Here’s what you need:

• 1/3 lb. ground beef patty
• 1 breaded chicken breast
• 2-4 slices of bacon
• 2 slices cheddar cheese
• 2 slices american cheese
• 1 Hamburger bun
• Yellow onions
• Jalapenos
• Romaine lettuce
• Tomatoes
• Cajun seasoning
• Worcestershire sauce

Throw the burger on the grill and the chicken breast in the fryer (if you don’t have a deep fryer… um… get one), they should be done at roughly the same time (depending on how you like your burger). Season both sides of the burger with cajun and worcestershire. Throw the onions and jalapenos in a small, lightly-oiled saute pan and saute for about 5 minutes. A few minutes before the burger is done, toast the bun and warm up the bacon (this is for if you have pre-cooked bacon. If you don’t have pre-cooked bacon… um… get some (this can be accomplished by cooking some uncooked bacon)).

Once everything is done cooking, place the bacon on top of the burger and place the cheddar on top of the bacon, melt the cheddar in a toaster oven or similar appliance. Place the onions and peppers on the chicken breast (the chicken breast will float to the top of the oil when it’s done) and place the American on top of that. Melt. Place everything on the bun and top with tomato and lettuce.

Enjoy your heart attack sandwich!
