Flank Sandwich. Last Friday, Mandi was away and I had a friend coming over to play Mario Kart before we headed out for the night.

Flank Sandwich

I wanted to throw something simple on the grill, but I also wanted something awesome. Not just a steak or burger, something a little different. The idea hit me at about 3pm out of nowhere and I ran with it. Flank steak is awesome. And cheaper than most cuts. I threw in here whatever I had around the house I believe it is olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, molasses, honey, garlic, scallions and salt and pepper.

Roast a red pepper by putting it under the broiler and flipping it until it looks burnt on all sides. After the Steak sat in the marinade at room temperature for about an hour, I put it on a medium-hot grill. Here is the pepper after the bag treatment. Some horseradish.

Scalloped Hasselback Potatoes

When I hear it I think of several things: first, there’s scallops, as in the seafood—totally delicious. Then there’s the scalloped shape that can live on the edge of a pair of shorts or on the collar of a woman’s blouse—always pretty and dainty. And of course scalloped potatoes also comes to mind, which carries my imagination to a land of crispy potato skins drenched in a sea of cheese and cream. I can think of no better place to exist, actually. So when I came across TK member Shelbi Keith’s recipe for Scalloped Hasselback Potatoes, I knew we were going to become fast friends.

The challenge for me at times is knowing what to do with them because my own plants have rarely produced more than what we can eat in a salad. Often my timing is bad in being able to enjoy the lot — just how many tomatoes can two people eat at one sitting, right? Especially when my husband forgets to bring them home right away and they’re, well, soft. Into the freezer they go — stems and all. I’ll have to blame my need to use some of my frozen homegrown tomato stash on this Irish Blue Cheese and Tomato Soup recipe from Soup Chick. I love a good food experiment, don’t you?
