spontaneously salad

None of these warranted their own entries but I'd thought I'd share my last gasp of summer salad/sandwiches (although sandwiches could be eaten...whenever): 1. Simple Tuna Salad, aka what to make when you need to get rid of those bottled roasted red peppers before they get lost in the fridge. It's a nice change from the typical relish-y tuna salad. 2. I can't find a link anywhere but it was recently advertised in the Sunday coupons in my newspaper. It involved mayo and mustard, which was a new combo for me with regards to chicken salad. I'll just have to update this later. 3. Lemon-Chicken Pasta Salad, a last-minute 'what am I going to with this leftover roast chicken and snow peas from another meal--BINGO' light dinner. As you can see, I really, really don't like to waste food.

Cereal reviews coming next week, honest!

fun on a bun...

Technically, the bun is optional but I just have to recommend these Spice-Rubbed Chicken Breasts.  I thought it sounded like a different kind of chicken sandwich for me and I'd never made a rub before. I have plenty of recipes but none which triggered an immediate response of, "I must try this." Also, I'd never purchased cumin before. It smells like the primary ingredient in a packet of taco seasoning, so you can see why it would need to be balanced out with brown sugar. Actually, all of the spices work well together, even the little tang of thyme. I think I'll be trying it on salmon next.
