jblaque is a really interesting guy, and his posts have turned me on to many websites and happenings that I wouldn't have heard about otherwise. We don't agree on everything, but he's one of those people who can disagree with you and still make you glad you've heard his point of view, a rare talent (and one I wish I shared, pointy bitch me).
He also loves to cook. This is a significant point in his favor, in my book. Anyone who likes to make his own food and shares a passion for it is alright with me. Cooking good food gives one a hands-on appreciation of life, especially if some of that food is got for oneself, as Jon has just got back from doing. Now, I'm not a meat-eater at this time, restricting myself to only a monthly consumption of fish and otherwise being vegetarian, so most of the recipes he posts on his blog engage my interest in an academic way only. But since I appreciate a fellow gourmand, I hereby present some recipes from my larder, hoping you'll enjoy them, J. (I was gonna email these, but I thought I'd put them up here for others to try out as well.)
These are recipes I or my family have made a number of times, so I can back them up as being really damn good. As said, they are vegetarian, but they are exceptionally tasty, and would make great sides if you're inclined to center your meals around flesh dishes.
( Spinach with Garbanzos (Chickpeas) )
( Gazpacho Andaluz )
( Garbanzo (Chickpea) Stew )
( Spinach and Artichoke Casserole )
( Hot and Spicy Green Beans )
( Very Spicy, Delicious Chickpeas )
Okay, that's it for now. I hope you all will try some of these, as I can vouch that they really are wonderful dishes, very flavorful and filling.
Enjoy!
