Lunch - 15 Minutes

Don’t hate me because I can do this in less time than it takes Rachael Ray to emphatically wave her arms about and impose her I’m a Grown Up Child language (”Yummo!”) on you between drops of EVOO (that’s extra virgin olive oil) or sprinkles of S&P (that’s salt & pepper!).

This is just a pan-seared skirt steak, rice and red beans, a tomato, half an avocado and some cheese. Oh, and sour cream on top. And this is just how I ate it, only after I took the photos I added about a 1/4 cup more sour cream. No, seriously. I’d accept an on going sour cream blood transfusion if it meant I could feel the sour cream pulsating rapidly through my veins. I’d cut myself just watch the sour creamy goodness ooze from my flesh.

I also like avocado.

dude! you and nate with the sour cream! when he sees it he thinks it’s ice cream and wants it, and even after he tastes it and finds out it’s not ice cream, he scarfs it down and wants more. oh, and both nate and i think avocado is DA BOMB. yummo, indeed! heh.

MMMmmm… SOUR CREAMMMM… yuuuummmm. You’re a woman after my own heart. I routinely make myself what I’ve dubbed a “burrito salad”: Rice, black beans, tomatoes, romaine lettuce and shredded cheese, topped with salsa and perhaps a drizzle of vinaigrette. (I’ve quit buying sour cream, because it just wouldn’t last. But the avocado? Now you’ve got me thinking!)

I watched rachael ray for the first time yesterday, and the EVOO shit drove me insane. She’s a clown.

Tell me, when you finished garnishing did you yell out, “How cool is THAT?”

That looks fabulous! Taco salad for us tonight.

I really, really need to start cooking more. It’s all I can do to make dinner at this point. Perhaps after we buy the spiffy new stove!
