Day 115 Two Frozen Thumbs Up

Today, I must comment on a perfectly acceptable frozen food item. Generally, I do not find frozen foods delicious or respectable and only eat them, when I have not been on the ball in regard to preparing lunch. Today, was one of those days and I found myself in the frozen food section of the supermarket, not at all excited about my prospects. Of all the boring, bland frozen options out there, I prefer Amy's brand, because they are one of the few vegetarian options and I believe one of the healthier choices. So, without fanfare or excitement of any kind, I chose the Amy's bean and cheese pizza bites. I was not expecting anything spectacular, but I have to say that they were not too bad! Anything with a bean/cheese combination is pretty good, I think, they were almost like tiny bean burritos, I did not get a pizza feel from them. So, yes I would buy them again, they have made the list of acceptable grocery items. I wonder how hard it would be to make my own pizza bites? It couldn't be that difficult, of course the trick would be to find the right kind of dough, maybe biscuit dough? Hmmm, maybe I'll try it sometime and share the results. I could make some really unique combinations, like feta and pineapple or something equally California kitchen-ish. We shall see what kind of magic, I can conjure in the kitchen.

Day 107 Broken Bunny Pie

Yesterday, at the herb fest was fun, but today I am paying for it dearly. Just for background information, two years ago, I was in a bad accident and broke my leg, as well as some other stuff. I generally can't walk for hours and yet I did yesterday, in the pursuit of hot peppers. Today, I am a gimp with a pirate leg so, I rolled out my trusty chair on wheels and made breakfast, lunch, and dinner from my comfy perch. This reminds me of a recipe I invented, the Christmas after my accident, which was only about one month after it happened. I called it Cripple Christmas pie, because I made the whole thing sitting, I was determined to contribute even in my smashed up state. Since then, I have also made this pie for Easter, as it's more of a spring creation anyway. Here it is:

Cripple Christmas Pie/or Broken Bunny Pie for Easter (if you want to be dull call it a Coconut Pineapple Chess pie)

• 1 cup sugar
• 3 eggs
• 8-ounce can crushed pineapple, undrained
• 4 tablespoons melted butter
• 2 cups of dried coconut
• 1 unbaked pie crust

Preperation

Heat oven to 325, beat eggs and mix all ingredients except butter. Pour mixture into pie crust and dot the top with butter. Bake until firm and brown, maybe 35 minutes.

Good luck, if you want to be authentic, sit in a rolling kitchen chair or a computer chair, while making this fabulous pie.
