"The Cook Bookie"

any new dish?

Not yet, school and work has me busy

I see, nice to hear that your school and job is going good :)

thank you, maybe when I have some free time I will take some pictures of the stuff I cook at work or school

Bookie, my favorite dish to cook for myself is Chicken Cordon bleu, I make it a bit different than normal, but my friends usually tell me I make it really good. Have you made it before? I'm curious how you would cook it, or if you would do anything different like me to make it better :D

as I told you before though, I don't have as many opportunities to cook as I used to though.

thanks and i'll keep an eye on it :)

Im making Cordon Bleu tomorrow, I used Gruyere Cheese (or swiss mixed with mozz) Prosciutto, and home made bread crumbs (old bread, usually wheat, put through a food processor with parsley, salt and pepper) and a garlic egg wash

You ever try it with some cream cheese in the center? I love adding some in the center with the swiss haha, also, if you ever need a decent crumb for the outside use smashed Ritz crackers, much better than regular haha

You should show me pics of yours?

I use either a basic cream sauce, or a hollandaise sauce on top.

I love Ritz as crumbs, but I mainly do that to top casseroles or mac and cheese

I will try to take pics, but it is for my dinner class

So I have been experimenting with Egg rolls and fillings

I've done a rotisserie chicken egg roll with blue cheese (not...the best.....)

Cheese steak egg rolls (so good with chili ketchup)

and most recently a honey ham and cheese egg roll

I was wondering if people had some other ideas for non traditional egg rolls to try?

I am also going to experiment this week with a "Bacon Sushi" where I make a quinoa risotto and roll it up in a bacon weave......but idk how that will go


I still need to upload my Chicken Cordon Bleu pics and recipe for Devaura, and ranom food pics from food I made for friends this week

I will get to your requests eventually!

Thank you for being patient! I have more free time now that the semester is coming to a close, and definitely after my finals I can crank a few out.

the egg rolls sound amazing! could you marry me and cook for me? lol

Just and fyi - I am a dude - and if that fits your fancy, must be easy to win your heart with food

lol im a dude also but as long as you can cook I really don't care xD

hands off, his food is mine

:P
