The Cooking Itch

Today I got the cooking itch. I wanted to make Yorkshire pudding and well you have to have something to go with Yorkshire pudding right?!

So alas, I called my mom and got the recipe for Yorkshire pudding along with the caution that I needed to follow ALL the directions carefully or it wouldn't work. Well - I did it!! You can find the recipe at the end of this post if you are interested in trying to make Yorkshire pudding yourself.


Well as you can see from the picture above I definitely didn't have the pudding (see muffin/puff pastry on plate) by itself:
First, I bought some fresh steam-in-bag green beans and toasted some slivered almonds to go with it.
Then, I bought six really thin steaks and marinated them for about an hour in Market Pantry Strawberry Balsamic Vinaigrette (if you have not tried marinating steak in a fruit vinaigrette you must because it is AMAZING!!) and then cooked them in a pan on the stove.
And then, I cooked down some onions and Voila! you have the meal above.

As I mentioned previously, cooking for one usually yields more than one meal and this one yielded twelve Yorkshire puddings and two meals of steak, onions, and green beans with toasted almonds.

Well unfortunately for all (including myself) I can't find the Yorkshire Pudding recipe, but I will post the recipe as soon as I get it.

Happy cooking everyone!!
