The apartment goes gourmet! Just wanted to share a quick recipe I made up this evening, which turned out pretty well. I'd change a few things about it for next time, but all-in-all, it wasn't bad.

We start with some white potatoes -- just zap 'em for 8 minutes (4 minutes per side). Also, grab some ham (or turkey, or chicken) slices, some slaw veggies, some mushrooms, BBQ sauce, and balsamic vinegar. When the potatoes come out, carve out the centers, making the potato halves into little cups.



Warm your skillet to medium heat, and add the BBQ sauce and balsamic vinegar. When it starts to simmer, throw in the mushrooms and slaw vegetables. Throw the carved out potato bits into the skillet.


It will start to smell very good at this point.

When it's about done, turn off heat, mix in some feta cheese, and pour the mix back into the potato cups.


Yum. You can also add cheese on top, if desired:


Actually, I forgot to add feta, and added this mozzarella as an afterthought. It was good, but in hindsight, feta would have been the better choice (as it would better complement the vinegar). I'm sure that you, dear reader, will do better.

We'll call this dish "Papas Berkelinos." Bon apetit!
