Sunday Morning - Waffles

I recently got another kitchen "toy" - a waffle pan, and this morning is the time to play with it.

I have been eyeing it for awhile in Williams-Sonoma catalog, and I finally placed and order and few days later a nice man in brown uniform arrived at the door with it. Here is the listing on Williams-Sonoma's website: click here. A basic recipe is included.

My Take on Chiles Rellenos

Happy Friday, everyone!

It has been a long week and I really want to take it easy on Friday night, so nothing fancy tonight, simple chiles rellenos and that's it. I have used most of the foods that I had already prepared for tonight's dinner. The only thing I had to invest my time in is getting ancho/poblano chiles ready. That involves scorching the skins under broiler until they blister and after few more manipulations with steam and ice bath, removing the outer skin and then cleaning out the seeds and pith. This step can be done some time ahead. I prepped the chiles right after I got home from work and then went off to gym.
