Five foodie-finds for Friday, August 23rd.

Five Foodie Finds for Friday August 23 2013 (c)nwafoodie

It’s Friday!  It’s Friday!  It’s Friday!

I love Friday because it is when I get browse goodies from all over the internet and share foodie items with you that happen to tickle my fancy.

These are so lovely.

1.

Frozen black Oregon truffles. Until we are gazillionaires and able to just casually hop on a plane to France and go truffle hunting, why not explore what the good ol’ US of A has to offer?  Don’t forget the truffle shaver which will shave thin slices of  black Oregon truffle delight over pasta or early morning scrambled eggs.

 

2.

Serving pot. Fall is just around the corner. It’s when we start spending more time sitting outside, enjoying the temperatures drop and drop until one day we decide that it is time for that jacket.  And that blanket. C’mon, let’spend more time with our loved ones just sitting outside and enjoying the beauty of the outdoors.  I think this serving pot would be perfect for transporting something warm to eat and keeping it next to you while you stare at the stars.

3.

Horn salt dish and spoon. Whether you serve your guests from the dining table in a formal style or whether you serve buffet style from the kitchen countertop, this little salt dish and spoon adds a little specialness.

4.

French madeleines. I don’t have a sweet tooth. It is true.  You rarely ever see me talking about baking or indulging in dessert. I prefer savory.  Except madeleines.  I think it may be the perfect dessert with just a hint of sweet.  Madeleines will be my next baking project just as soon as figure out where to buy a true blue steel French Madeleine pan.  From France.  Until then, these little pre-made French pretties will hit the spot. Oui.

5.

Less laboring, more savoring plate. Doesn’t this plate just make you smile?  It’s dubbed as a “pizza plate” but I think it would be perfect as a tapas or appetizer plate. It would go perfectly next to that serving pot. Besides, we all could use a constant reminder to slow down and savor the moment.

Do you have a foodie find that you would like to share?  Drop me a note at nwafoodie (at) gmail (dot) com.

Happy Friday!

Lyndi

Eat well, my friends. Eat well.

Once a month they do a drop in my neighborhood and I always look forward to the bounty of foods and household goods. My order may be small but I love joining in with everyone else to unload the truck! You may have a drop in your neighborhood. If you’re curious, I can tell you more!

This was a big "oops" moment. As I pulled out my t This was a big "oops" moment. As I pulled out my tub with all my handmade serving bowls (and one lovely @lecreuset dish), they all came crashing to the floor.⁠
⁠
Crash!⁠
Smash!⁠
Shock.⁠
⁠
Honestly, I was happy I used them all the time, and they had a good run.⁠

I learned long time ago to use what you have. Otherwise, why have it?
The feeling after you ate too much. The feeling after you ate too much.
Ad. Oh, hi there. You’re pretty busy right now, Ad. Oh, hi there. You’re pretty busy right now, aren’t you? Okay, I will make this brief. ⁠
⁠
Print, bookmark, or pin this Easy Cheesy Roasted Garlic Chicken Skillet Slider recipe. Better yet, make it for dinner!⁠
⁠
You know I’m all about being helpful. And healthy! I’ve also been afraid to walk down that frozen or prepared foods aisle at the store, thinking, “Nope, not for me. They’re not healthy.” ⁠
⁠
I feel good about @kevins.natural.foods because I know I can still eat well by keeping them on hand, whether for the four-o-clock pinch or meal planning.⁠
⁠
I first tried Kevin’s Cauliflower Mac n Cheese when it was a special buy at Aldi’s. The ingredients were simple and pure, and we were delighted to discover they tasted great!⁠
⁠
Kevin’s also has a line of delicious five-minute entrees like Peppercorn Steak, Cilantro Lime Chicken, and Roasted Garlic Chicken.⁠
⁠
My recipe for Easy Cheesy Roasted Garlic Chicken Skillet Sliders only has seven ingredients and seven steps. Best of all, you can complete it from skillet to table in ten minutes!⁠

Ad. Quick – what is the first food that comes to Ad. Quick – what is the first food that comes to mind when you think of Thanksgiving dinner?⁠
⁠
Turkey?⁠
⁠
Green bean casserole?⁠
⁠
Mashed potatoes?⁠
⁠
Sweet potato casserole?⁠
⁠
Corn?⁠
⁠
Peas?⁠
⁠
Gravy?⁠
⁠
The correct answer is all of them! But mostly, you can’t have Thanksgiving without turkey, sweet potatoes, and veggies. It’s un-American.⁠
⁠
This crazy-awesome pie is stuffed with an abundance of shredded turkey, sweet potatoes, corn, peas, and gravy – Ding! Ding! Ding! – You guessed correctly! It also has ooey-gooey cheese and sour cream to add a layer of comforting delight.⁠
⁠
Link in bio for my Thanksgiving-inspired pot pie that uses three @wickspies 8″ raw circles. One for the base and two to cut lattice strips (using a ravioli cutter) so that it looks extra pretty. Of course, you could just use two raw circles. One for the base and one for the top. Just cut some slits on the top crust so that some ooey-gooey delightfulness can do its thang.⁠

“Just like becoming an expert in wine–you learn by drinking it, the best you can afford–you learn about great food by finding the best there is, whether simply or luxurious. Then you savor it, analyze it, and discuss it with your companions, and you compare it with other experiences.” – Julia Child
