Food for thought...

No, we're actually not talking about anything thought-provoking... we are talking about our hands down, FAVORITE thing in the whole wide universe.

FOOD.

Glorious, glorious food.
We love to buy it, make it, cook it, eat it, play with it, and enjoy it.

R: There are three things I love in the world. Food, Sharks hockey, and Mayan. Or food, Mayan and... food.
M: Clearly we love food. I think we started cooking together when we first started dating.
R: The first thing we cooked together was probably our world-famous sausamashajewcchini. Its Italian, you know.
M: Wow. That was impressive. But its true, our sausage, mushroom, zucchini dish is pretty delicious. Recipe time!

SAUSAMASHAJEWCCHINI.
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 10 minutes

We like to buy our produce at Trader Joe's because its pretty fresh and not very expensive.
For a dinner for two (mind you this is Ryan's appetite, so its actually dinner for 13) you will need:
One package of zucchini (4-5 zucchinis)
One carton of white button mushrooms
One package of Chicken sausages (We've used Chicken apple, sun-dried tomato, portobello mushroom- they all taste great)
1/2 onion
Spices: 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Olive Oil

1. Slice the mushroom, zucchini and sausage into 1/2 inch slices (keeping the meat and vegetables separate because, remember, this is JEWcchini, and we're keeping it Kosher) (just kidding because to keep kosher we would need a rabbi... so... anyways), and dice the onion.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat, also start a small skillet on medium
2. Oil the large skillet and, when hot, add the zucchini.
3. Let the zucchini get a head start of about 3-4 minutes and then add the mushrooms and onions.
4. Add your seasonings to taste. Don't add too much. Seriously.
5. While this is cooking, add your sausage to the small skillet to sizzle. Ryan loves when it sizzles. We are simple people.
6. When the sausage has taken on a nice brown color, with lots of crispy-ness, add it to the veggies.
7. Saute the rest for another 5 minutes, or when the veggies are done.

YOU NOW HAVE PREPARED YOURSELF A DELICIOUS DINNER THAT YOU CAN ENJOY WITH YOUR LOVED ONE.
(OR BY YOURSELF, WHICH EVER IS CONVENIENT TO YOU AT THE TIME THIS DINNER IS PREPARED)
Ryan enjoys his as a filing to a sandwich, but i just pile it onto my plate and stuff myself with the deliciousness.

We enjoyed writing this recipe for you!
R: I would like to add that it goes well with garlic potatoes, or pasta.
M; Indeed, Indeed. I think we should share a recipe every week.
R: Or eat it in a nice panini. It would then be called SAUSAMASHAJEWCCHINPANINI.
M: Wow. We're done now.
R: Okay.

Sorry we didn't blog for so long! We promise to make it to you by posting glorious recipes all the time now!!!!!!!!!!

M: How should we sign out?
R: I AM THE SAUSAMASHAJEWCHINNI MAN.
M: Sigh.

Sincerely,
Ryan and Mayan
