Scrambled Pasta (Real Simple)

Any vegetable can be added to this. I think it would taste great with asparagus, zucchini, etc.

1/4 of a 1-pound box of spaghetti (about 2 cups cooked)

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced

4 whole scallions, thinly sliced

1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

4 large eggs

1/2 cup grated Parmesan, plus more for serving

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

1/2 cup finely chopped fresh basil leaves

crusty bread for serving

Cook spaghetti according to the package directions.

Meanwhile, heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Saute the green pepper, scallions, and crushed red pepper (if desired) until tender but not brown, 3 to 4 minutes.

In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs with the Parmesan and salt; add them to the skillet with the spaghetti and basil. Toss gently over heat until eggs are set.

Serve with grated Parmesan and crusty bread.

We were talking about Bulgogi last night on the "What's for dinner" thread so I dug out my old recipe. I wasn't much of a cook back then and thought this sounded too hard. LOL! This was my boss' wife's recipe. She was from Korea.

Bulgogi

2 tsp. MSG (I wouldn't use it)
3 tsp. sesame oil
3 Tbsp. soy sauce
1 or 2 green onions, chopped
2 cloves garlic
2 Tbsp. sesame seeds*
1-1/2 lb. beef, sliced thin

Mix soy sauce and sesame seed. Chop green onion and garlic together. Mix all ingredients in with the soy sauce and add beef. Let bowl sit at room temperature for 15 minutes before charcoal broiling.
*I would toast the sesame seeds

Grilled Thai Chicken Breasts (Fine Cooking) The reviews on this recipe were all superb, and the recipe can be easily halved for your family. Before chopping the lemongrass, be sure to cut off the spiky green top and enough of the bottom to eliminate the woody core. Peel off a few of the outer layers until youÃ¢ÂÂre left with just the tender heart of the stalk. 1-1/2 cups chopped fresh cilantro (leaves and tender stems) 3/4 cup coconut milk 1/4 cup finely chopped lemongrass (from about 2 stalks) 12 fresh basil leaves 3 Thai bird chiles, 2 jalapeÃ¯Â¿Â½os, or 2 medium serranos, stemmed, seeded, and finely chopped 3 cloves garlic, minced 1-1/2 Tbs. kosher salt 2 tsp. packed light brown sugar 1-1/2 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 3/4 tsp. ground coriander 12 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (5 to 5-1/2 lb.), trimmed (remove the tenderloins if still attached) 2 limes, cut into wedges for serving Combine 1-1/4 cups of the cilantro with the coconut milk, lemongrass, basil, chiles, garlic, salt, brown sugar, pepper, and coriander in a food processor or blender and purÃ¯Â¿Â½e until smooth. Arrange the chicken breasts in a nonreactive baking dish or other vessel large enough to accommodate them in a snug single layer. Pour the marinade over the breasts and turn to coat them well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 1 day. Heat a gas grill to medium high or prepare a medium-hot charcoal fire. Grill the chicken (covered on a gas grill) until it has good grill marks on the first side, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the chicken (cover a gas grill) and continue to cook until firm to the touch and completely cooked through (check by making a slice into one of the thicker breasts), 5 to 6 more minutes. Transfer to a platter and let rest for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup cilantro and serve with the lime wedges.

I made this yesterday, and it was very good! Four of us each had a slice, and all comments were positive. Key Lime Cheesecake 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs 6 tablespoons butter, melted 24-oz. cream cheese, softened 1 cup white sugar 1 tablespoon cornstarch 3 eggs 1 tablespoon grated lime zest 2/3 cups key lime juice Combine graham cracker crumbs with melted butter. Press into bottom and partially up the sides of a 9" springform pan. Refrigerate. Combine cream cheese, sugar, lime peel and cornstarch in a large bowl, and beat with an electric mixer until smooth and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at a time blending just until smooth. Add key lime juice and finish mixing by hand. Do not over beat or cake will crack during baking. Pour batter into prepared crust. Bake at 300Âº for 55 to 65 minutes, or until set. To minimize cracking, place a shallow pan half full of hot water on the lower rack during baking. Turn oven off and let cheesecake stand in oven 30 minutes with the door open at least 4 inches. Remove from oven. Refrigerate overnight, and up to three day.
