Sunday Seven - Episode 36



Last week, we dealt with the subject of breakfast. Now we'll deal with other meals of the day.

But first, Wil, of "The Daily Snooze," was first to answer last week's question about favorite breakfast cereals. Congratulations, Wil.

On to the newest challenge!

THIS WEEK'S QUESTION:
Name seven foods in your kitchen (including your refrigerator or freezer) or pantry that you could prepare as a meal in less than ten minutes.



  1. Bacon

  2. Mushrooms

  3. butter

  4. cheese(s) – 4 kinds

  5. baby spinach

  6. garlic

  7. eggs

    Fry the bacon medium crisp, set aside and drain on paper. Pick over, wash, dry and slice mushrooms. Wash and dry baby spinach. Slice garlic and place with butter in a double boiler over low heat. Hard boil eggs, chill in ice water, peel, and slice thickly. On a large serving platter, arrange spinach as a bed, then strew the other ingredients artfully, breaking the bacon into medium pieces. Drizzle the melted butter and garlic over the whole thing. Open a bottle of Sauterne. It's called a Salade Nicoise. Usually served for supper with chunks of a fresh, crisp baguette. Good for the taste buds. Horrible for the heart. Fruit for desert. Yum!

    And so it goes...
