Cooking Exceptionally With Gin Lee

Baked Spaghetti  The one thing, well, one of the things that I love about this recipe is that I can do all the preparation for it in advance and then pop it in the oven to bake later on. For example, you can do all the prep work the night before and have the spaghetti bake all ready to place in the oven the following day. Believe me, it's so much better than frozen tv dinners.  I cook a humongous pot of spaghetti at least once a week. It makes lazy evenings happen for at least 3-4 meals during the week. Umm, spaghetti leftovers! Just heat the leftovers and serve! Or you can make a completely different meal with the spaghetti leftovers. Tonight I am preparing 16 ounces of dry spaghetti.

Delicious Grilled Gyros However you slice it, gyros are so sooo delightfully good! For those of you who aren't familiar with gyros, most gyros are made with lamb. Although, processed gyros are made with beef and lamb mixture (sometimes other meats such as chicken, pork, and turkey) that's grounded up super fine, then flattened. The meat is seasoned with oregano, thyme, rosemary, pepper, cumin, and salt. The gyros meat is thinning sliced, about the same thickness and length as bacon, quite possibly a little bit thinner cut. Gyros originated from Greece, and were commonly eaten at taverns. Sometime in the 1970s gyros became popular in New York, NY. And now in many locations gyros are a popular 'street food'. Homemade Gyros  My recipe makes up a lot of gyros once cooked, and it's really delicious. More So than any of the processed gyros that you can buy. And the best part is that you'll get way more for your buck making homemade gyros. It's a fairly...
