4 August 2009

 Breakfast:  Jimmy Dean Breakfast Bowls Sausage (Eggs, Potatoes, Sausage & Cheddar Cheese) and coffee

Breakfast 2: bacon, egg and cheese on a croissant

Lunch:  Gazpacho, cold cuts, some potatoe chips and almost of glass of non-sugar-free Pepsi and Mug Root Beer (about a half glass each)...

Here is the recipe I tried to get my co-workers to try.  Only one was willing to try this.  It was quite expensive and I feel like I got ripped off by their not having the testerone to try it!  Next office luncheon I attend, I will go as cheap and as non-adventuresome as humanly possible!


Gazpacho

Spain's noble contribution to the world of soup.

2 large cucumbers, peeled, seeded & chopped

1 large green pepper, seeded & chopped

4 cups cold tomato juice

1 tsp crushed red pepper

5-6 med tomatoes, peeled, seeded & chopped

5 cloves garlic, crushed

1/4 cup lemon juice

1 large red onion, chopped

1 Tbsp olive oil

Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Garnishes -- sliced stuffed green olives,

                      chopped red onion,

                      peeled & chopped cucumber,

                     homemade croutons.

 

 

Stir all ingredients together thoroughly. Chill thoroughly. Stir again just before serving. Serve in frosted bowls with small bowls of the garnishes alongside so each person can add their own.

NOTE: This is not an original recipe;  I lost track of where I got it.
