COOKED: Chickpea Salad Or The Valetudinarian Just Threw Her Kleenex Into Her Glass Of Water. Damn.

Hey dudes and dudettes, the lack of posting has been due my complete preoccupation in June 2008: The Awesome Summer of Sickness. Super-fun so far! It's that kind of cold where one finally feels better, plans and executes an actual social activity, only to wake up the next day completely broken and battered. And then the process repeats a few times. And then I actually got sick sick this past weekend, with bodily functions that really shouldn't ever happen to nice, unsuspecting people. So, there's my excuse for a lack of cooking. As it is, I can't part with much energy. On the bright side, piano playing is one activity that my crapulous body still enjoys. Zone-out to the max, a nice and brooklyn way to chill. Regardless, I still have to feed myself something. One dish I cooked was a Chickpea salad. Recipe time? Right-o.

1. Saute sliced mushrooms and finely sliced onions in preheated oil (which has a good fistful of hot pepper flakes).
2. Once those have cooked, add the chickpeas to the pan of vegs until they are warmed.
3. Transfer to bowl. Add cilantro, lemon or lime juice and salt.
4. Feta, goat, or some sort of creamy cheese is optional, but, as always, delicious.
5. For the complete Lucia-experience, enjoy while watching Ghostbusters. Thanks, VH1. I felt a particular kinship to Slimer. Bless his boogeriness.

There. There's your recipe. I hope it's satiating. If I had leftovers, I would have ground them up and made pseudo-falafels by adding around a tablespoon of flour and frying the mix.

COOKED: Fried Egg And Bell Pepper Salsa Or Leggo My Eggo

I've become protective over mine eggs. I eat so damn many that I'm sure my bodily ratios have tipped towards the freaky side of healthy egg consumption. At least my head hasn't changed shape towards some sort of oval formation. Nope. It's still the same flat-topped shape as usual. Phew. As in my prior post, I shall attempt to give a recipe:


1. Fry an egg.
2. Make salsa out of diced tomatoes, bell peppers, cilantro, lime juice, red pepper flakes and onion. Take charge and gauge the amount of each ingredient as you see fit. I have faith you won't fail.
3. Put salsa on fried egg.
4. Crumble feta cheese over your sordid contraption.
5. Ignore stares from family members who suggest eating meal with a bread-like substance.
6. Do not eat the bread-like substance.
7. You'll only regret it.
8. No, really. Totally not worth it. The salsa's flavor alone is enough to make people weep. Grown men people.
9. Focus on the damn egg. It's tasty. Right? Isn't it?


YES. YES IT IS. YOU'RE SO HEALTHY NOW! CONGRATS!

(seriously, this combo is really delicious)
