Eira's funky guacomole recipe (slightly adapted from the Moosewood cookbook recipe)

  • one (or two) very nice, ripe avocados
  • one (or two) nice cloves of garlic
  • juice of one half a lime
  • little bit o' salt
  • if you have it, a few cilantro leaves

....scoop out the avocado(s) into a sturdy bowl, and squish some garlic in (use a garlic press), add the lime juice and salt. Poke lots of holes in the avocados with a fork (this makes it easier to mash)... then start smooshing all of it together, until it has a sort of not smooth at all texture. Yeah. Eat with chips (organic blue corn chips are my favorite). If any of you ever visit me, I'll make some of this for you. And I do make the best guacomole around, if I do say so myself.

 Surprise In A Pan

Day One Open fridge. Pull out all Veggies that catch your attention. Lay them out in decending order of size. Wildly hack, cram, crush, snip, mash, peel, and cube up the remaining veggies. Place them in a large wok. Make some kind of interesting sauce to go with it. (ie, open fridge again and repeat chaotic instructions of mixing variouse itiems) Make some kind of pasta to go on the side. Day Two Repeate in a different varation.

 Marina's Cheerios /inspired by the movie 'Michael'/

1. Take out cereal, bowl, and milk.

2. Pour the cereal into the bowl so there's about an inch between the rim of the bowl and the top of the cereal, depending on how deep your bowl it.

3. Pour the milk over the cereal until the level rises very slightly.

4. Put away the cereal and milk. This step is very important! If you leave the milk out it will get warm and disgusting and unhealthy.

5. Get out the white processed sugar and a spoon.

6. Take a heaping spoonful of sugar and sprinkle it halfway around the edge of the bowl.

7. Take another heaping spoonful and sprinkle it around the other half. Take a small spoonful and fill in the bits you missed.

8. Press all the sugar under the cheerios with the back of your spoon. Your spoon should now be covered with milk.

9. Take a medium sized spoonful of sugar and dump it right in the middle of the bowl. Your spoon should now be covered with sugar. Press the sugar under the cereal.

10. Eat the cheerios, scraping a little sugar off the bottom of the bowl with each bite. Once all the cereal is gone, drink the sweet milk spoonful by spoonful, like soup.

Marina has been eating this almost every day for several years, and she hasn't died yet!

Samosas

(an indian pastry with veggies)

Steam some potatos and carrots until soft, and cook some green peas.

Make a dough from 3tbsp or so of olive oil, 1tbsp of soft butter, and about 2 cups of flour, with just enough water in it to make it into a hard dough. Cut the oil and butter in first with a fork or pastry knife, until the dough is flour with lumps in it, then put in the water and mix it just enough to make the dough hold together. If you over-mix, the dough is tougher and not quite as good.

Roll the dough out into 8" circles, using about 1/4 cup of dough at a time. Cut the circles in half, then fold each piece over. Seal the flat edges together with a dribble of water and some pressing, leaving a cone of dough with the round edges open.

Mash the potatos and carrots into lumpy mush, add garam masala (an indian spice mix -- cinnamon, hot pepper, black pepper, coriander seed, cumin, bay leaf) and the peas. Mix and place about two and a half tablesppons in each samosa. Seal the remaining edges and place on a cookie sheet.

Pour a small drizzle of oil over each side of the samosas, and bake at 375 degrees fahrenheit until golden brown. Serve with chutney.

Zuccinni Ganouj

(Baba ganouj made with zuccini instead of eggplant)

Take several dying zuccini and a head of garlic. Wrap the garlic in foil, put both in a 375 oven and bake until the garlic is super-tender and the zuccini is soft and the skin is loose (about 45 minutes).

Peel the garlic (which is easy when it's cooked), take the stems off the zuccini and toss everything in a blender. Blend with some olive oil, just enough to make it smooth, and a pinch of salt. Serve with saltines, pita or samosas.
