So has we draw into week 8 of the project I find myself repeating a few recipes over.
I made the Cheddar Jalapeno scones from week 1. Most of the ingredients I got from Trader Joes, but I still had the basic baking ingredients (the flower and baking soda) from week 1. I did make this batch cheesier. I also toasted a lot of them to give them a crunch. This really helped break up the monotony as they grew softer in the humid Minnesota air.
Yesterday I made another double batch of rice pudding. I changed up quite bit on this batch. I had a bottle of agave nectar that I used in place of sugar. This gave the batch a brownish look. I also cooked the rice hotter this time. So I have less crunchy kernels this time of round. When flavoring it I eyeballed the vanilla, but split the batch between coconut and chocolate. YUM!
Thanks to the large pack of Chicken Legs from COSTCO i have been having chicken legs most weeks. I have been dressing them up in oil and spices. But I had a couple of sauce packs from Week 0 that I have used for a little extra spice.
