Last night I made another recipe from Eating Well - meatballs in a spicy
red sauce, served with orzo and sauted spinach. 'Twas good. The meatballs
consisted of half ground turkey and half ground lamb, corriander, cumin and
chopped fresh mint along with the usual garlic, onion, etc. The sauce
was nicely spiced. Recommended - from the latest issue of the magazine.

Another new (to me) recipe last night, this time from the latest issue
of Cooking Light. It was Cincinnati Chili! Wow. Interesting flavor
and it stood up to a base of whole wheat spaghetti.

No, ma'am, I did not. It was a two wayer. It was Cooking Light,
afterall. ;-)

Is it true the Cininatti Chili has cocoa or some sort of chocolatey ingretient
in it? Or is that just a myth perpetuated by Skyline Chili?

It has cinnamon in it. It's tasty.
Chicken mole (pronounced like mo-lay) is a Mexican dish with chocolate
in it, but it's a savory dish, not a sweet dish.

I had chicken mole once and was not impressed. It was like eating biscuits
and gravy without the gravy.

What's Cincinnati Chili all about [how's it different from ordinary
chili]?

Well, I'm no expert, but it seems to be seasoned differently, and the
end product, although very flavorful, isn't really all that hot. At
least the recipe I made wasn't particularly hot. Some of the spices
I added were garam masala, cinnamon and nutmeg.
It's served on top of spaghetti and topped with cheese and maybe onions.
The sauce is about equal parts meat and beans. The "ways" have to do
with how many traditional toppings are used. "Three way" is with
cheese and four is onions.
Wikipedia has an article on it:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cincinnati_chili
(Damn, I LOVE wikipedia.)

Five way is with kidney beans added...
If you're ever in the DC area, I highly recommend Hard Times Cafe.
They do a wonderful cincinatti chili.

I made this soup for dinner tonight. I added only half the chickpeas
she suggested. I also used the Israeli couscous. Yummy.

I finally got around to making that no-knead bread I've been reading so
much about. It came out great. I'll leave a link to a blog post I've
made that includes the recipe. Needless bread - too cool. ;-)

I made this yesterday to bring for lunch. I had plenty for two
servings.
Took some frozen mahi mahi filets (2) from Whole Foods, thawed and
poached them in a mixture of wine and water. Let them cool and flaked
them. Added them in with chopped tomatoes (2), fresh basil and
drizzled it with balsamic. Ate it with some pita chips.

I used Asiago cheese, and 1/2 tsp. of red pepper flakes, and
whole wheat orzo. Excellent recipe.

Mary, that looks good minus the shrimp [but with chicken or something in
its place; I don't do seafood!]. :-)

So *that's* what happened to my asiago cheese! :)
(The results were well worth it, I hasten to add.)

The last thing I cooked was Ina Garten's French potato salad, the recipe
for which I think I've already posted.
