Welcome to another addition of me trying to cook! :D
I made this a while ago, but I got too busy to upload my photos and write a blog post.
Anyway -- Here we go!
Shrimp & Avocado Salad
Prep time: 15-20mins
Ingredients: 1/4 lb of cooked shrimp 1 Avocado 1 can of black beans some mushrooms (I think I used like 5?) 1 bag of mixed salad greens Cilantro shredded parmesan cheese
Dressing: Salt Pepper Lime juice cilantro
Mix together and eat! :D
Pepper Steak with Fresh Salsa
qq .. the steak is a little bit more done than i wanted. sigh...
Prep time: 30min Cook time: prob ~20min
Ingredients:
2 lbs of steak -- I think I used London Broil cuts? I forgot Salt & Pepper Cayenne Chili
1 Cauliflower
SALSA 1 whole tomato 1 anaheim pepper (use any pepper you like.. usually, i'd throw jalapenos in this, but I was cooking for someone who doesn't like spicy food :0 ) 1 shallot some cilantro salt & pepper 1/2 juice of a lime
How to make:
1. cut and combine salsa ingredients. 2. Season steak with salt, pepper and cayenne chili 3. Place steak in a hot pan for searing (use a little olive oil) 4. Cook steak for about 7mins or so on each side -- depending on size of the cut 5. remove steak from pan and tent with aluminum foil. let steak rest for a few mins. 6. steam cauliflower! 7. eat and enjoy :D
make this for your next GSL finals party or something ! Yay!
Edit: Thanks for all the comments guys! Please try out this recipe yourself and let me know how it worked out for you!

Haha, I remember those times. ):
I actually made a club in college called the "food club", which was just an excuse to use school money to cook and throw food parties.

I can make Yakisoba. Pre-packaged, maruchan, yakisoba. My only cooking device is a microwave. And now a friend has a toaster. But the toaster is secret.

There's nothing to enjoy. Just the sad feeling that none of this is in my stomach right now.

Hahaha :p maybe.
I actually tried making baneling cream puffs before...but unfortunately, they failed. ): I took a risk and used completely whole wheat flour, instead of going a 3/4 cup whole wheat + 1/2 cup all purpose flour.
It made it super dense, and the poor little baneling puffs collapsed on themselves during cooling.
oh well. ): Eventually, I will make them!

It's actually really easy. It just takes time more than anything. :D
The most difficult thing you'll probably have to do is cutting up the veggies. You can totally cheat and just throw in all the salsa ingredients into a food-processor and get pretty much the same results.

good thing I hate cilantro and am thus immune to this would be delicious looking food ^^

That looks so gooooooooood, it gave me chills
|
I looked at pic then back to my bowl of ramen. T_T

Goddamn these look good. But this stuff is like thoe beauty ads, people in photoshop mess with the color hue and saturation and blur to make things look a lot better than in real life. Then when you make it and it comes out looking like shit you just get depreessed. At least for chinese cooking its ok if it looks like shit, i've made/eaten some pretty tasty piles of shit.

D: Lol. I actually didn't color correct these or anything. I'm way too lazy to do personal projects on PS anymore considering I stare at PS at work now.
Though I did take a ton of shots to try to get a tastier angle, i guess!

Okay. When I am in the US, I will ninja you and make you cook (and teach some) to me :OOOOO <3
|
Wow that looks good. Salsa and steak is a delicious combination.

I've haven't had avocado salad in years. It's really good. Shrimp could be fun in it. I will have to try your rendition.

Not sure how you manage to do this with that delicious food sitting there :D. I don't have the patience to take food photos because I'm always too hungry .
Your photography is excellent though .

Why these mushrooms are raw? o.O

My starving-artist rations disgust me now

Yeah, I waited too long so they're fairly well done. ): Timing fail.

The Pepper Steak with Fresh Salsa picture looks absolutely mouth-watering, thanks for sharing I should try making it some day!
