Giddyup

The current plan is to document my culinary adventures and impromptu recipes, with the hope of getting plugged in to a community of like-minded folks.

Recipes currently under development:
Sweet and spicy chicken salad
Sun dried tomato tapenade
Cowboy chili
Thai curry chicken
Broiled portobello mushroom with cheese
Pesto hummus

The goal is to have recipes that are both healthy and flexible. I try to avoid refined carbs and sugars whenever possible. A lot of my recipes end up being vegetarian- and/or vegan-friendly, FWIW.

About the name: it was my girlfriend's idea, on observing that I tend to play pretty fast and loose with recipes.

cowboykitchen without the dash was taken, as was kitchencowboy. The former is private, the latter is not - take a look at his one and only post for a meditation on abandoned projects (the first line of his only post: This is the first blog for me to post, ever and I hope I can stick to it.).

Hopefully I can stick with this...like parmesan crisps to a cookie sheet. Mmm, parmesan.
