Just renovating my kitchen would not be nearly enough of an undertaking for me and so I added another big one (or six) to the growing list. One of these big (and slightly scary projects) is ripe and ready and will be revealed on Monday. Oh yes! Let the suspense build now. Moving on to the food.
Yesterday I shouted out for help for convenient, no cook lunches. How could I have forgotten one of my favourites? Now granted, this dish sort of requires a kitchen, but I do have access to one, just not my own. After I shared this video ,many people emailed me for the recipe as I do a demo of these cool little ladies in my cooking class.So for the benefit of all you lovely ladies (and man or two) who read my blog but live in a galaxy far far far (or in another city that is too far to commute), here you are.
I almost wish I could password protect this recipe by isolating IP Internet Addresses so that all of you in the Toronto area would have to come to my classes to get it, but I am not that nerdy.
If you think of other awesomely amazing filling ideas, let me in on the secret!
