BBQ Potato “Skins”
| April 25, 2011 | Posted by Cheeks under Appetizers, Leftovers, Main Course, MEAT |
Not a lot of photos today, since I wasn’t sure how these would turn out nor was I particularly in the “let’s share and document everything” sort of mood last night. After traveling last weekend, getting a bad cold, traveling this week for work, cleaning, laundry-ing, running 2 miles, and looking ahead to yet another…
Reduced-Fat Potato Salad
| March 4, 2011 | Posted by Cheeks under Recipe, Salads, Side Dishes, Vegetarian |
Way back when, I filled out an online form to be a “recipe tester” for Cook’s Country magazine, imagining that all of these beautiful, delicious recipes would pour into my inbox; I’d scientifically test them out and provide meticulous feedback to the editors on taste, texture, technique; they’d laud my contributions with laurels, banquets, and…

This recipe came from a number of diverse, bizarre sources. First, I had cooked a potato a few nights back planning to make yet another mom recipe, Tuna Baked Potatoes.

Chorizo Hash with Poached Eggs
| November 5, 2010 | Posted by Cheeks under Breakfast, Recipe |
Eye-shaped eggs courtesy of my egg cooker. I cannot poach eggs, but I have lots of experience watching eggs explode into amoebas and octopi in simmering water. Hash is, perhaps, the easiest thing to cobble together in the half-eye-open hours of early weekend mornings. Besides, of course, pouring a bowl of cereal or heading to…
I got (Rainbow Potato) SKINS…they’re multiplying
| October 7, 2010 | Posted by Cheeks under Junk food, Recipe |
And I’m losing control…. Can you blame me? There is something about a potato skin that just screams out “INDECENT!” It’s a hollowed-out shell of a potato, often deep fried, then filled with all sorts of fatty, cholesterol-y goodness like cheese and bacon, then, if that weren’t bad enough, you dip it in sour cream and/or…
