It’s Tiiiiiiimmmmmeeeeee for….
(sorry folks, I can’t get those really neat Secret Recipe Club buttons to work today :-/ )
The Secret Recipe Clubis a group based on Secret Santa. Our group leader is April ofAngel’s Homestead, and our group C leader is Debbi ofDebbi Does Dinner…Healthy & Low Calorie.
Have you played Secret Santa? Ok, well I guess you don’t “play” Secret Santa, it’s something you participate in, I suppose. Everyone who signs up is assigned a blog each month to “secretly stalk”. When we stalk this blog, we are looking for a recipe to make and then blog about on our assigned reveal day! It is a lot of fun getting to know fellow bloggers and seeing all of the different recipes they have created. It’s even more fun eating them (not the bloggers, silly, the FOOD we make from the recipes!! Sheesh!)!!
I’ve loved participating each month because I’ve “met” so many wonderful people and have tasted so much great food! I highly suggest you take a look atThe Secret Recipe Club‘s website if it’s something you might be interested in. You can go to the “Join the SRC” tab on the home page.
For the month of September, I was assigned the wonderful blog…
It is a blog by Mary Anne and Mariel. They are a beautiful mother-daughter team and have a wonderful website FILLED with fantastic recipes!! Mary Anne is a professional caterer and Mariel is a fledgling foodie. They have so very many recipes to choose from that I really had trouble deciding. There were the S’more Brownies, theGreek-Style Chicken Pita Wraps with Homemade Tzatziki, and theButcher’s Bolognese.
And oh, believe me, there were plenty more!
Finally though, I decided on theUltimate Egg Salad Sandwich. With a name like that, you know it’s got to be good!
One thing I love aboutFeast on the Cheapis that the ladies tell you the approximate cost of how much each dish will be when you make it depending on how well stocked your pantry is. They want their recipes to be wallet-friendly and have a tab on their home page calledWell Stockedwhere they list items that you should always have in your pantry.
I’ve found by experience that it is muchbetter to have these items on hand so that when you see a recipe for a dinner you want to make, you aren’t running to the store 4 different times in a day because you’re out of something.
Yeah, I did that. No joke.
So, stock up. It’s a very smart idea.
I did make a few changes to their recipe which I’ll tell you about after.
