now for something more complex
Spaghetti sauce ( not the jar kind)
1/4 pound pancetta( kind of like bacon) chopped coarsely
1/2 onion chopped finely
6 cloves garlic minced
1/2 bunch ( about a handful) fresh basil
1/4 bunch ( about half a handful) fresh oregano
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary
1 1/2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
olive oil ( extra virgin)
1/2 pound mild pork sausage
1/2 pound ground beef
32 ounces crushed tomatos ( best if fresh from garden)
1 small can tomato paste
salt
In a large pan, combine pancetta, garlic, and onions. Saute until the onions and garlic have browned and caramelized and pancetta is crisp and brown. Drain the fat off and drizzle the olive oil over the mixture and add the red pepper flakes. cook 2 minutes on medium heat and add pork sausage and ground beef. Continue sauting until meat is browned. In large stock pot place crushed tomatos and their juices, and tomato paste. Transfer the seasoned meat mixture into the tomatos. Add fresh herbs and salt to taste. Simmer on the lowest possible heat for 3 hours. Serve over pasta Al dente ... or set aside to use with lasagne/manacotti

ok as per requests...blue bacon burger
1 pound ground sirloin
1/2 cup blue cheese
8 slices bacon
lettuce
tomato
blue cheese salad dressing
4 hamburger buns
1/4 c grill seasoning
3 tablespoons worchestershire sauce
1/2 small onion
In a pan saute onions until brown. Remove onions from pan and give them about 5 minutes to cool. Then mix onions, grill seasoning, worchestershire sauce, into ground beef and mix by hand until ingredients are well distributed. make 8 thin, but large patties. In the center of 4 of the patties place a mound of blue cheese. Cover with second patty and pinch edges well to seal. Grill or pan fry burgers until they are done to medium ( 170 degrees). Make sure to flip carefully so edges aren't unsealed. While burgers cook, toast buns and cook bacon until crisp. Slather buns with blue cheese dressing and pile on lettuce and tomaton. Then when burgers are done, place them on the buns and criss cross bacon over the tops before you place top bun on....EAT ( and if you feel your arteries hardening, don't worry, that's normal.)

Salmon with a sweet chili rub
Press salmon fillets into ; 1/2 red chili, 1 tsp soft brown sugar, 2 salad onions (scallions?) and a good bunch of dill, chopped fine and mixed with a little salt and pepper.
Then fry in a little garlic butter (chop one clove and let it get fragrant) for a couple of minutes a side.
Take salmon out of pan, and keep warm. Add a small pot of sour cream to the pan, off the heat, and maybe a little more dill.
This is best with something green and crunchy, and new potatoes lightly crushed, rather than mashed.

1 tablespoon vegetable oil, 1 turn of the pan
4 tablespoons butter, divided
1 pound ground chicken breast
1 small McIntosh apple peeled and finely chopped
1/4 cup pure maple syrup, eyeball it
1 tablespoon grill seasoning blend (recommended: Montreal Steak Seasoning by McCormick)
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg, eyeball it
4 jumbo/sandwich size English muffins, fork split
8 large eggs
Splash of cold milk
Salt and pepper
1/4 pound Cheddar, thinly sliced or shredded
Preheat broiler and preheat a medium skillet over medium-high heat with 1 tablespoon oil and 1 tablespoon butter. Mix chicken with apple, syrup, grill seasoning, poultry seasoning, cinnamon and nutmeg and score the meat into 4 sections. Form 4 large, thin patties and set into hot butter and oil. Cook 5 minutes on each side.
Place fork split muffins on broiler pan and toast. Butter toasted muffins and reserve.
Heat a second nonstick skillet over medium heat and melt a tablespoon of butter in the pan. Beat eggs with milk, salt and pepper and scramble to desired doneness.
Pile 1 sausage patty, 1/4 of the eggs and Cheddar cheese on each of 4 muffin halves. Return muffins to broiler to melt cheese, 1 to 2 minutes, then set tops into place and serve.

MSG snickerdoodles - I make something like this, but you can replace a spoonful or two of the flour with finely ground almonds. These are good with marscapone mousse. Or hot espresso over ice cream.
