Beef and mushroom sandwich

Beef and mushroom sandwich with onions, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and provolone cheese.

Method:

1. Cook sliced mushrooms in olive oil with pink salt and pepper. Add pre-cooked beef (for 12-14 ins in Worcestershire sauce, pepper, salt, garlic powder, chili flakes, cumin powder, and red onions, I used leftover beef medallions from dinner)
2. Toast bread on a pan or in oven until crunchy, but not browned.
3. Add a slice of provolone or your prefered cheese. Top with pickled jalapeño for some extra crunch.

Jalapeno stuffed with cream

1. Halve the jalapenos and remove the seeds, leaving the stalks intact. 

2. I used a French cultured cream I like the taste of. (There is another recipe using cheese)

3. I stuffed the chilis with the cream, sprinkled some bread crumbs and baked till done (20 -30 mins at 375 F). It is a good idea to broil them the last 10 mins for a crunch.

Those who like Bacon, may wrap the jalapenos to make poppers

Broccoli and cheddar with bacon

This is as easy as ABC. First, fry the bacon in a wok. You need no extra oil for the dish. Skip this step and use olive oil spray if you don't eat/like bacon.

Cut the broccoli into bite size florets, wash well and steam in a microwave for 5 mins-until al dente. Sprinkle a little salt.

Saute or bake the bacon and broccoli. Add cheddar just before you turn the heat off.  You can blend it and make a thick soup out of it too. Casein-conscious eaters might want to go easy on the cheese.
