Mini Bagel Sandwiches with Turkey, Lettuce, and Tomato

October 24, 2011 Leave a Comment

In law school, when I was short on cash (almost always), or on a health kick (every time my jeans felt too tight), I would decide to be good and pack myself lunch everyday. I ate the same thing every single day — turkey sandwich on wheat — but I never got bored of eating…read more »

Dan in the Kitchen — Ranch Burgers

September 22, 2011 Leave a Comment

Yesterday, I made a batch of brioche buns with hamburgers in mind. But, they turned out to be small and biscuit-like, so I decided to eat them for breakfast instead, maybe slathered with a little jam or cherry butter. Problem is, there are a lot of buns, and I don’t actually eat breakfast much. Dan doesn’t…read more »

Meatball Sub

Looks like Hurricane Irene is the new Snowpocalypse — everything is closed, traffic has ground to a halt, and everyone is holed up in their homes. The only difference, I guess, is that we’re actually prepared to battle the forces of nature this time around.  Maybe a little too prepared. BJ’s was a mad house…read more »

Goat Cheese and Colby Jack Sandwich with Kimchi, Spinach, and a Runny Egg

August 26, 2011 3 Comments

Guys, I just had the greatest sandwich ever for lunch — wheat toast, two kinds of melted cheese, spinach, kimchi, and a runny egg. So messy, so flavorful, so amazingly delicious. I’ve learned from reading my friend Sam’s food blog this year that a runny egg makes everything extra delicious. And, as everyone knows, kimchi…read more »

Dan in the Kitchen — Grilled Cream Cheese and Colby Jack Sandwich

August 23, 2011 3 Comments

So, I’d like to introduce a new series of posts called “Dan in the Kitchen,” where I document Dan’s forays into the kitchen. I figure since I’m not always in the mood to cook, but we still need to eat, everyone would benefit from Dan gaining some cooking skills. Until we moved in together, pretty…read more »

Cheddar-Stuffed Jalapeno Burger

May 23, 2011 5 Comments

Dan was jonesing hard for Five Guy’s  and Ray’s Hell Burger this weekend. Who can blame him? They’ve got amazing burgers! But, getting to Five Guy’s meant spending 30 minutes in intense local traffic, and Ray’s Hell Burger is always packed to the gills on weekends, so neither option seemed particularly appealing.  We didn’t want…read more »

Egg Salad Sandwich

April 21, 2011 Leave a Comment

When I was a kid, my grandmother made me eat a hard boiled egg for breakfast every morning. Every. Single. Morning. She’d get up, boil the egg, get me ready for school, and then feed it to me as we walked to the local day care center. The egg was never seasoned in any way…read more »

Happy Emancipation Day, everyone! Hope you’re all enjoying your day off as much as I’m enjoying mine! Wait…Emancipation Day isn’t a federal holiday? Only DC government employees get the day off? And I’m the only one of my friends who gets to stay home today? Oh man. That sucks, guys. (I love you all, don’t…read more »

Shooter’s Sandwich

March 27, 2011 2 Comments

So, miracle of miracles, this recipe was actually sent to me by Dan. Yeah. The man who thinks eating is a hassle and only sometimes gets excited for dinner if it involves dumplings and/or blueberry pie sent me a link to a sandwich. Must be one hell of a sandwich! Naturally, I had to check…read more »
