Baked Sweet Potatoes

As it turns out, I have a full time job now and not that much time to sit down and write my recipes. Don't get me wrong, I still cook a lot, I just don't have time to prepare the recipes… Anyways, I decided that I should at least be publishing one of these every week. But this weekend I was really lazy, luckily, I still have some backlog of recipes that have the photographic evidence ready and just need me to write down. Hence, this recipe. This weekend has been awfully cold over here, so cold  that it makes you want to crawl under a blanket and consume delicious carbohydrates like there is no tomorrow… The carbo-hangover is something future you will have to deal, you will just have to enjoy!

So, no more excuses, it's time to treat yourself to my Stuffed, baked sweet potatoes.

Look at that deliciousness!!!

Shrimp Tacos and Avocado Sauce

Don't let the word Tacos fool you, this is as far from Mexican as it gets. But I like to take the word Taco as liberally as everybody else takes the word Sandwich. A taco is basically any type of deliciousness enclosed in a tortilla or similar flatbread, regardless of composition. This is where the beauty of the taco lays, the possibilities. So, even if you are a Taco Purist that only consumes authentic "al Pastor" tacos made on a street cart, or you are as liberal as I am, if you give this a chance, you are gonna love it. Get your ass to the kitchen for a few minutes and get this "Shrimp and Pineapple Tacos with Avocado Sauce" going, you won't regret it. 

A sexy taco.

Let's use those leftovers!: Asian Lettuce Wraps.

What's up you guys!? Sorry I've been absent the past few weeks (or couple of months), I recently changed countries and it has been quite hectic. Between moving, immigration stuff, getting a flat, settling down and starting a new job I haven't really have the time to cook, let alone keep photographic record of it all. But well, here I am, back in business baby!

And today we are making something super simple, the other day I managed to make some awesome ribs (recipe here), and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't finish them all. So, it got me thinking: what can we do with some nice leftovers… I mean, this happens quite often right?

And of course the first thing that came to mind was something on the Asian lines, something quite simple to make, and surprisingly simple. So, in like 10-15 minutes you will have a light dinner or a simple afternoon snack. Anyways, let's get to it, here is the recipe for my Asian Lettuce Wraps.

Sexy as Fuck!

Let's Talk Pizza!

I have taken a long time to put this recipe in the blog, for 2 reasons mainly: 1) I wanted to come up with the best simple recipe for it 2) I am lazy as fuck… Hahaha… There are some challenges that every aspiring pizza maker must overcome (like not overdoing the sauce and go thinner on their dough) but they are easy. The point is that home made pizza, even if it is not perfect or authentic (whatever that means) it will taste considerably better than your usual take out and  will be infinitely superior to your frozen pizza. So, don’t be afraid, it will be easy and don't be lazy, it will take you little to no time.

Get your ass off the couch and get ready. Once the pizzas are done, you can sit back and relax and continue binge watching Netflix, but this time, with awesome pizzas to keep you company and making your belly feel all fuzzy and amazing!

So, here is my master Pizza Recipe, from here you can derive to whatever you want, red sauce, white sauce, cream, you can use the same dough to make Focaccia and some beautiful Panini with it, and once you understand how kneading and proving the dough is all about you will be able to get your incursion into basic bread making. Holy fuck, I'm initiating into a world of yummy thing. You are welcome!

Seriously, how awesome does that look?

Some goddamn chicken wings!

My last recipe was appealing for those of you who are trying to cut down calories, go paleo or in general just trying to eat a bit healthier. If you fall into any of those categories… welll… This is not for you.

However, if you like awesome food and don't worry much about the calories you are about to ingest, well this is for you. A couple of weeks ago when the whole Pacquiao vs. Mayweather was going on, a friend of mine and I decided to stay up until late to see the fight (we live in Europe) and we decided we needed some good food (and beer) to keep us awake and interested. Our minds drifted for a while thinking of the possibilities, but every time we were thinking of junk food, we thought of Wings…Goddamn Chicken Wings.

I was not really in the mood for breaking my head and work a lot in different sauces so we settled in two. Lemon, garlic and Parmesan and Sweet Chilli. However, this recipe works as a master recipe, to your wings you will be able to add any sauce you want. And the possibilities are truly endless! Anyways, without further ado, here is the recipe. Cook, enjoy and thank me later.

Do they look awesome or what?
