Who says a sloppy joe has to be ground beef?  Well it doesn’t, and this delicious lamb, curry & coconut version is proof. Btw – it doesn’t have to be on a bun either…

Prepare to get messy because it’s Sloppy Joe Week. First on deck – the Chipotle Sloppy Joe. Maybe a little Alesmith ESB (Extra Special Bitter) to season the meat? We think yes. The recipe is here.

Here we are ladies & gentlemen, a day that’s been coming for a couple months. I speak of course, of the Cook Your Way to Kauai FINALE!!
Booya, we’re so excited. It’s Ayako vs Miriam – two tough competitors anxious to come out on top.

Who will win, who will come to Kauai with the Livecast crew? Who…Who…?

Somehow it became Edamame Week by accident.  And though accidents are normally bad – edamame week has been very good.  And as you wait for the finale of the ‘Cook Your Way to Kauai Competition’ (this Friday – Ayako vs. Miriam) try your hand at this superbly delicious change from mashed potatoes.   Edamame mash is not only great in flavor – but it’s nearly radioactive in color – fantastic!!!

Edamame is not just a snack while you wait for your sushi. And blended with a couple other things it makes a delicious topping and a great change from garlic or cheese bread. Happy apping.
