GCC: Frixuelos (Asturias Crepes)

June 05, 2013 by Monica in Cooking Club, Desserts, Gutsy Cooks Club, Latin, Quick Meal, Sweets

This is a new month of recipes for the Gutsy Cooks and with it comes a new set of recipes for us to show our gutsiness on.  June belongs to Steph, from Orangespoken and boy has she brought her “A” game.

She started us off with a sentimental pick.  Her mom’s favorite snack, one that tugs at my heart every time I read her recap.

GCC: Fruit Stuffed Pork Loin

May 20, 2013 by Monica in Cookbooks, Cooking Club, Dinner, Entertaining, Gutsy Cooks Club, Main Courses, Meat, Pork

This past weekend I had every intention of doing this dish, except that I spend it running around doing errands and Saturday dinner turned into pizza.

Instead I decided, I would do it for Sunday’s dinner.

Sunday came and went and back in the refrigerator everything went. But, I made a mental vow that I was going to do this for our Monday night dinner no matter what.

I had doubts that this was going to work out for a quick meal, but once more, I realized that there is always a way.  And in less than 1 hour, I had it on the table for us to dig in.

GCC: Cream Asparagus Tarragon Soup and Poach Egg

May 05, 2013 by Monica in Cookbooks, Cooking Club, Dinner, Entertaining, Gutsy Cooks Club, Soup

This week is the first week of another Gutsy Cook line up.  The month of June belongs to Raymond from Your Just Desserts and boy did he bring it with his choices this month – I cannot wait to cook it up in the next 4 weeks.

I love, love asparagus, its actually one of my favorite vegetables and my preferred way to eat them is cooked until crisp-tender then tossed in olive oil, sprinkle with parmesan cheese and topped with a poach egg.

If that is not comfort food at its best, I don’t know what is.
