Roasted Brussels Sprouts in Truffle Butter
adapted from Barefoot Contessa in Paris

Ingredients
1 1/2 pounds Brussels sprouts
3 tablespoons melted truffle butter
1 teaspoon sea salt
freshly ground black pepper
optional: chopped parsley, half a lemon

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Cut off the brown ends of the brussels sprouts and pull off any yellow outer leaves. Mix them in a bowl with the butter, salt and pepper. Pour them on a sheet pan and roast for 35 to 40 minutes, until crisp on the outside and tender on the inside. Shake the pan from time to time to brown the sprouts evenly. Sprinkle with more kosher salt, parsley, a squeeze with lemon, and serve immediately.

MEAN STREETS….. Harvey K. is the MAN!!! I love this movie because it gangster before guns. When guns show up everyone is surprised. Watching it was like watching cave men discovering fire and getting burned.

Huevos Rancheros

Tue, 26 Oct 2010 12:38:38 -0400

On the road, Mike and I have to find things to do. We count dollar generals on back roads. There’s lots of em so it’s satisfying. We search out healthful food ( we usually don’t find it, but when we do it’s very satisfying). We search specifically for Huevos Rancheros, which is Mikes favorite. Every where we go we order them just hoping they will be as good as the ones he remembers as a kid at the Village Inn ( just like Dennys, but Dennys got no way-vos). If you know where the best Huevos Rancheros are , esp in the south where we travel the most, holla at me bout that. Today, it’s back to Cabbage Town, in Atlanta to Ria’s Bluebird. We can’t remember if the Huevos were good , so we gonna remind ourselves. I really love the place though. Ria’s has become our Atlanta breakfast staple. Open to any other suggestions, but Ria’s is hard to beat, baby.
