Now That's Soul!

Roasted Veggie and Smoked Cheese Pizza

My second night in Chicago I was again too beat and too cold to head out for better eats, so I rang up room service and had them make me a veggie-friendly pizza; lots of roasted veggies and a very tasty smoked mozzarella, topped with an entire mini-bottle of Tobasco. It's really pretty hard to go wrong with pizza, but this was almost as good as I would have made at home!

Leftover Soul

Short on time I scrounged through the fridge and dug up a spicy hot soul plate - fried rice with pepper sauce, collard greens, a few bites of stuffed yam, steamed broccoli, red beans and some roasted corn. 8 minutes from fridge to table, and about another 6 minutes from plate to gut!

Spicy and Savory with a side of Antibiotic

The last of my fried rice was calling, so I fixed a spicy lentil gravy dusted with parmesan, some lightly carmelized curried carrots, brocolli with shallots, and more of those wonderful lemon herbed chicken satay from Yves. And as a garnish, penicillin for Julia and Amoxicillin for me!

Julia took the lead on this 4-star dinner! A spinach salad with carrot and parmesan, followed by burgers - GardenBurger for me, Julia had a TexMex veggie patty - on toasted wheat buns, topped with sweet mustard, sharp cheddar, pickle, sprouts, and tomato, with corn on the cob (butter, salt, pepper).
