Recipes

 Note: I was asked to contribute some recipes for the English department's monthly newsletter. I decided to go for humor with mine.

Jeremy’s Favorite Recipe: 

Zatarain’s Jambalaya with sausage. Do what the box says, but add double the meat. Butter is optional, but adds a nice extra flavor.

Side note: Even though Zatarain’s says to just add one type of meat, you can use multiple meats and multiple boxes of Zatarain’s if you have lots of people to feed (or you want to have leftovers for the week). It’s still just 25 minutes of cooking after it comes to a boil, no matter how much you put in the pot.

More side noting: Eat with a spoon, because it’s much easier to just shovel it into your mouth than to mess with a fork.

What Jeremy eats on cold days in December:

Heat up chunky chili with beans, add Frito’s (or off brand Frito’s or similar cracker-like item), and add mixed shredded cheese. I call it Frito pie. At Sonic you can ask for this, even if it’s not on the menu. They’ll even put it in a tortilla like a burrito, if you really get aggressive about it over the loudspeaker.

Side note: Stay stocked up on chili in case of issues during the pandemic. Target will ship you boxes full of cans of chili, if needed. You can just stack them up all over the place and tell your family not to complain, because they’ll be thanking you if the apocalypse finally arrives.

 

Jeremy’s Go To Snack

Bread. Just bread. Notice those hot dog buns are about to expire? Just eat them. You don’t need to put hot dogs in them and it’s better than just throwing them away later. As with most recipes, butter is an option, but not necessary when you’re in a hurry.

Side note: If you become a regular eater of just bread, you may find yourself wanting to buy the butter-flavored bread options at the store or even Hawaiian sweet rolls.

 

Peace!
