Well I know I have been blogging a lot about food lately so here is some more simply because I like to cook and eat what I cook. After working on a menu with a client of mine I was inspired to make some quesadillas, these are quite good but I am stiil refining them to make them just right. Here is my first stab at it.

First you need to defrost, season and grill some chicken.

I would suggest 2 chicken breasts and season them with basic salt and pepper or your favorite spice blend (which I did with a McCormicks blend)

Well last night I was hungry and wanted some BBQ but did not want to cook for a long time because of the heat.  It was about 95 degrees around 8:30pm last night. Here is what went down…

This past Thursday was the farmers market in downtown Livermore so I had some really great red potatoes, bell peppers, and zucchini.

On a side note, I was never really into going to farmers markets in town when I could go to Safeway whenever I wanted and get produce. That was lame. I can tell a big difference in taste, quality and price which is always great on budget. Anyways back to the food.

First start with the red potatoes and bell peppers.

Happy Mothers Day to all you moms out there…

Oh and Hulu.com is cool. Hehe.

In an attempt to bring another part of my life here, I am trying to post some more work stuff so here we go…

Well the request came in to re-brand the ministry Fuel.  After a few meetings and a few concepts the new branding is complete. Below is the old (left) and the new (right):

I don’t really have much for the old branding since I did not do it.  But it was mostly based on what was above.  It had a lot of old sepia style pictures of gas stations and retro gas pumps.  Hopefully the new organic earthly stuff will speak more to the age range that ministry consists of.  I think it will. Here are some concepts that were in-between the 2 looks:

Well tonight’s menu is Kleist Kabobs.  The are pretty standard kabobs but this is the way my dad has been making them and so it is the way I am making them thus Kleist kabobs are born.

What to buy: 1 package of stew beef, 1 bottle of creamy french salad dressing, 2 cans of whole white potatoes, one package of fully cooked shrimp, 1 large green bell pepper, 1 package of whole mushrooms, wood or metal skewers, rice

Total cost: around $18-$20
Feeds 5-6, about $3-$4 a meal or person (if you are a single person that is a lot of lunches and dinners)

Food prep:

The night before making this meal marinate the beef in the creamy french dressing, use about 3/4 of the bottle.
