Hello friends and lovers! Have you guys seen the show Food Party on IFC? It’s pretty much the best show of all time. Think Pee Wee’s Playhouse, meets Aqua Teen Hunger Force, meets Food Network. Really. Anyway, Thu Tran generally cooks gross, inedible things on the show, but on one of my favorite episodes, she off-hand mentions using strawberries in place of tomatoes for their acidity and sweetness. This sort of stuck in my head and now that strawberry season is imminent, I finally got around to making a marinara sauce replacing the tomatoes with strawberries. The flavor profile is borrowed from the popular strawberry salad that features basil, balsamic, goat cheese, red onions, and walnuts. It was almost shocking how well the flavors came together. It tasted like a simple 10 minute marinara… and strawberries!
My mind is on New Years apps this week. This one is fun cause it’s mini. Mini things are fun right? These actually came out amazing. I made them by myself (a bunch of my friends are snowed OUT of Boston), and ate them all! 24 mini tacos consumed by me. Crunchy, creamy, salty, bite-sized, these are everything you want in a New Years snack. If you wanted to make a shortcut version of this, you could use those tortilla chips that are shaped like mini cups, but where is the fun in that?
