I love eggs. I could eat eggs every single day. I could eat them just about anyway (insert Bubba from Forrest Gump style read off of ways to eat eggs here) but my favorite way is soft boiled. Soft boiled eggs are the perfect topper to just about any dish that could use a something rich on top to add an oomph of flavor and texture.

Spicy Sausage Pasta with Homemade Sauce
Here we are... another installment of $10 dinners. Well I guess it's only the second installment so it's kind of a stretch to call this a recurring segment... but the intention is there so I'm counting it!

Mostly, I suppose, I got busy and blogging fell to the bottom of my to-do list. My new apartment in Texas is in a fantastic location and I love living here but the kitchen is small and inconvenient which means I usually would rather be doing something else than … [Read more...]
