epic food

last night I made the most EPIC dinner that I never want to forget how to make, so I shall reveal all to the world this awesome feed :)

I purchased a single rolled chicken thing (I forget what it's called) that had a herbs and rasher of bacon inside and was in a tomato paste-like base.

That same day I had also done some other vegie shopping so I decided to mod the meal (which is what made it so damn awesome).

So a rough pseudo recipe and how it did it (in step-by-step form):

Ingredients:

  • 1 pre-prepared rolled chicken breast/thigh thing
  • 2 Medium-sized carrots
  • 1 medium-sized potato
  • 2 tablespoons of tomato paste
  • 2 tomatoes
  • 1 small onion
  • 4 whole pieces of garlic
  • 1 teaspoon chopped (dried) basil.


Method:
  1. Peel and chop up potato and carrots and par-boil for approximately 10 minutes.
  2. While the vegies are boiling, chop up the onion, tomato and peel garlic.
  3. Prep oven bag and when the boiled vegies are par-boiled mix all ingredients and add into the oven-bag (make sure to follow oven-bag instructions!!!) and place into oven for approximately 35-40 minutes.
  4. Once cooked, cut open oven bag and enjoy! I sure did ^_^


And here is the result, straight from the oven bag (Oven Bags FTW!)!

Partys 'n Stuff

Just about every weekend of mine is made up of a (birthday) party fro at least the next 3 weeks and UNI is starting to become a bit of a drag.

I'm finding myself getting "snowed-in" with assignments and studies again, but hopefully I should pass everything this semester, leaving only one more unit to do next semester.

I got another cold about a week back *raised fist in anger* but I'm nearly back to 100% health.

I've been doing a lot of technical stuff for myself lately as well and generally being my normal non-sociable self...

Friday night at the Disturbed concert was a blast (it rocked soooo hard).

I'm trying to think of an alcoholic mix using the energy drink V, but so far, all I have come up with is Vodka + "V"... any other ideas welcome.
