Thursday Throwdown San Diego Secret Supper Club

[thursdaythrowdownsandiego]

So similar to Tim’s no theme menu last week, just made what I felt like doing and tried to minimize my work on a bit of a short notice week.  Decided to try to make a soup with the Vitamix, use the newish gas grill and take advantage of the slow cooker.  Dessert was inspired by the ease of an simple but tasty pumpkin recipe that my aunt makes every year for the holiday’s.  Technology and modern appliances are great aren’t they?!?!

Appetizer

Roasted Red Bell Pepper Soup Mascarpone Cheese, Salted Pepitas

Main Courses

Ilachas Stewed Shredded Beef, Carrots, Potatoes, Rice

Dessert

Pumpkin Pie Dessert Cake Topping, Pecans, A La Mode

No Theme Clone So similar to Tim's no theme menu last week, just made what I felt like doing and tried to minimize my work on a bit of a short notice week.

It’s summer, summer, summertime…summertime and it’s the best time of the year to eat outdoors.  House will be hot and stuffy and last thing we want to do is cook inside right?  So I thought of a menu revolving around the grill and keeping it interesting with some homemade sauces. So without further ado the menu – Appetizers- Chicken Satay Chicken Tenders|Dipping Sauces – Cucumber Relish/Peanut…

Dream A Little Dream

Dream A Little Dream

So this Throwdown snuck up on me and I didn’t know what I was gonna cook, I was scrambling, running through thoughts and I didn’t know where to look. The rain last week made me crave soup, but I needed a quick last minute one. There’s none better than the simple, but flavorful Caldo de Albondiga’s. Leaving you with refreshing and comforting feeling when it’s all done. But I couldn’t do just a run…
