"hum-drum" weekdays

so, after dinner with heather, i couldn't bare throwing away all that beautiful flavour so i decided to make "smothered onion sauce". it's super easy to make and not expensive at all. plus, it's one of those dishes that one could imagine as the cover of bon appetit magazine because it's just so simple, so clean, so perfect. 4 servings later, i'm so glad that i threw that empty pan in the fridge and waited for 30 mins to make this sauce.

 Steak alla Fiorentina = a perfectly grilled steak over a charcoal fire rubbed with raw garlic at the very end, giving just a support to a good piece of meat. to recreate this in residence, i had my solo george foreman grill. not charcoal, but it didn't turn out half bad. i think i can say though, that i'm just not a steak person. but, the garlic at the end did come through and it was good.

what i did love, was sauteed zucchini with garlic and olive oil. YUM. now that, i could eat time and time again. it was crunchy but soft. definitely made 4 servings and are them all in one... oops. is it ok to eat 1 lb of zucchini? oh well, hope so!

with that, 3 more down, meaning 378 to go!
