GUEST CHEF: Mediterranean fish soup a la Matthew P. Dickhaut.

This is a hearty and filling soup that is easy enough to make for even the biggest dumbass but comes out like you actually know what you're doing. you got some fish? you got some shrimp? no? get some asshole! don't fuck with me! okay. so to start...

Lightened up onion and bacon frittata

Frittatas are relatively simple to make, extremely versatile and perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner!  By swapping out some of the eggs for egg whites and using fat free milk, I've lightened up this dish for a delicious guilt-free dinner.

Perfect bite for New Year's.

 

This is not really a recipe, but it's my favorite way to eat caviar.

Start with a cracker of the water variety, smear it with sour cream, sprinkle a little hard-boiled egg, minced red onion, a dollop of caviar, a sprig of fresh dill, and a spritz of lemon juice.  Yum.  Happy New Year!

Tagine inspired cod stew

After our Christmas dinner, the last thing I want to see is ham and cookies.  For a light meal that is still winter-worthy I've created a Mediterranean style fish dish using very few ingredients.
 

Steak with mushroom Valdeon topping

Valdeon is a pungent Spanish blue cheese that pairs extremely well with mushrooms and beef of course.  I don't know what to say besides, this recipe is craaaazy good.

Drunken chili

My chili is smoky, spicy and full of delicious meat and vegetables.  There's no way you can have just one bowl.  The secret is the cooking liquid....beer and nothing but beer.

Sausage stuffed bell peppers

 

A meal on their own, these peppers are packed with spicy sausage, rice, vegetables and salty pecorino romano.  Instead of using raw peppers, they are first roasted over the burner to add a smoky element to the dish.
