A Letter To The Eater

Greetings Eater, 

          I would like to start by welcoming you  my blog and thank you for sticking around to read it. I encourage you to leave comments here or to even follow the Instagram account for this blog at the link here and to leave some words there, whether you enjoyed it or not. 

          Let me tell you what this blog is. I'm sure some of you may have assumed this is a food blog and you would have assumed correctly! It's nothing fancy. Just a few recipes and some food that I've tried and wanted to share.

          I'm not trying to take myself too seriously and I don't want you to do that either. I just want for us all to have some fun and be a little silly. Food shouldn't be taken so seriously. Sure, it's nice to make it look pretty and if you're on Chopped and there's a lump sum of money involved then you MIGHT consider taking it seriously. However, if you're on your phone, tablet, laptop, or, dare I say, desk top computer, and you're just looking for some recipes to try with some friends or family (or hell even just you and yourself) then I am here for you!

          So again, welcome and I hope you find something you enjoy. If you have any recipes you'd like for ME to try (and give you a shout-out) then feel free to send them my way via blog comments, Instagram comments, Instagram DM or even email me at s.elaine122894@gmail.com.

 Let's Eat!
-S

Raspberry Chipotle Salmon

This is a dish I made for a contest my school was holding. We had to use a Raspberry Chipotle sauce from Fischer and Weiser. I made Top 10 finalists with this dish! I served it with asparagus and mashed potatoes and I'll give the recipe/ingredients for that too. Raspberry Chipotle Glazed Grilled Salmon Ingredients: Salmon filets (however many you require) a bundle of asparagus (or two) potatoes (for mashing) Fischer and Weiser Raspberry Chipotle sauce 3 cloves garlic-chopped or g lemon-zested and juiced 1 C any kind of fruity wine (I used Arbor Mist Mango and Strawberry) 3 TBSP butter (plus more for your potatoes) green onions or chives cream or milk  2 TBSP vegetable oil salt and pepper to taste Directions:   (These steps aren't necessarily in order. You'll want to reorder them because you don't want one side being colder than the rest. Time management and all.) Starting with the potatoes you're going to want to peel them and wash t...

Chimichurri Marinated Ribeye

Greetings and salutations. This time we're going to make steak with a chimichurri sauce! I made the chimichurri two ways. The first way I blended it and used it as a marinade for my steaks and the second I just chopped everything up super fine and used it as a garnish/sauce for the finished steak. So without further ado... Chimichurri Marinated Ribeye Ingredients: (Ingredients have been doubled for both a marinade and a garnish) 8 oz flat leaf parsley 2 oz garlic 12 oz oil 4 oz red wine vinegar 1 oz lemon juice 1 oz red onion 2 tsp dried oregano 2 tbsp black 2 tbsp salt  Directions: Combine half of the ingredients excluding the oil to a blender or food processor. (I used a blender (actually a Nutribullet) and it came out so smooth). Blend or process until combined.  Slowly add half of the oil until it's smooth or at your desired consistency. For the garnish half of the chimichurri chop all ingredients up very fine and toss everything. EVERYTH...
