Magical Tricks with Food
Goal: Make the best lunch ever
Challenges: We haven’t gone grocery shopping this week
Advantages: Mass quantities of salad dressing, ketchup, and beef that we put an unfortunate flavor of chicken seasoning on two nights ago
Kitchen Status: 51% clean
Health Status: Hungry
Iron Chef Surprise Ingredient: Worcestershire sauce (we bought it to make Chex mix last winter and there’s tons leftover, so whenever Allyson isn’t looking I put some in whatever I am cooking to use it up)
Ingredients List: Weird ground beef, 1 can tomato sauce, steak seasoning, a few squirts of Ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, carrots (chopped tiny, so that roommates don’t notice the imposter veggies), and curly-shaped spaghetti.
Directions: Put weird beef, tomato sauce steak seasoning, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and carrots in a pot and cook them up! Make spaghetti. Eat them together.
Anticipated Outcome: Spaghetti and meaty tomato sauce.
Actual Outcome: I don’t know how or why, but I seemed to have recreated the exact sloppy joe recipe that I was served as a 6 year old at St. Augustine’s School cafeteria.
Results: It tasted good, actually, but not on pasta. I ate it on a toasted hamburger bun the next day and it was MUCH more delicious.
Findings: If you throw all your leftovers in a pot and let them simmer long enough, they will turn into food.
Unanswered question: Why is the pasta shaped like a bobby pin for giants?
