Let's try this

So, I've decided that I'd like to "reach out" with my cooking. That sounds stupid, I realize. But I figure if I photograph what I'm cooking and share with all those flicking through random internet pages, eventually someone will come to my page that needs a little help with cooking. I think it would be really awesome if people that aren't very experienced in the kitchen cooking or need a start at it could use my blog to help themselves out a bit. I had a guy friend tell me recently that he doesn't know how to cook. I thought to myself, "He doesn't know how?, How does anyone know how? So, instead of going to a bar and ordering multiple $5, $6, or possibly $10 drinks and then having to feed your date too from an overpriced tapas menu, why not offer simple recipes here that you could bring your date back to your place and make while you wait on the oven and make out on the couch? That sounds pretty cool to me.. I think it will be helpful to add that I'm not a Rachel Ray wanna be that abbreviates olive oil or refers to food as "super yummy." I never want to be a deep fried freak like Paula Deen either. It's important to mention that I have a tv crush on Anthony Bourdain on the Travel channel. That explains it..right? Let's start with a quiche. Start by buying a quiche pan. They're usually ceramic and under $10. You can buy them just about anywhere. Discount stores or Le Creuset...however you want to go about it. I think I paid $8 for mine. With a quiche you can add just about anything to it. You like bacon..add it. Are you vegetarian? Okay, load it up with vegetables you prefer. Have sliced ham in the fridge, okay too. This quiche that I'm featuring is simple. Eggs, good cheese, green onions, salt and pepper. That's it. (I put salsa on top of it too) Grocery list (probably $20) Eggs Good cheese (Go over to deli section and look at the cheeses. Ask the staff if they're are any smaller pieces if you don't want to spend more than $6 or $8 on cheese. I won't pay over $7 for cheese, I refuse). Green onions ($1) Pie crust ($4)(Usually come in a box of 2 next to the butter and eggs) Salt and pepper (maybe a little garlic salt too if you like?) Butter Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Lay out your crust (I put a little olive oil on it too, you don't have to) Crack 6 to 7 eggs in a bowl, grate a little cheese in too, salt and pepper. On top of your crust put in chopped green onions. Pour egg mixture on top. A couple of slices of butter on top of mixture. More cheese. (Grate it if you have a grater. Or cut it into tiny cubes.) Bake for 25 to 35 minutes. If at 25 minutes, the mixture still looks like liquid in the center, keep it in the oven for 10 extra minutes. Take it out, let it cool for a few minutes. Eat.
