The next episode is almost wrapped up. Sadly no dancing in this one-- just a lot of flubbed lines. I just have some voice-over stuff to do and then it's going live. Hopefully before the weekend, in time for your Sunday brunch.
Tonight's dinner was a last minute throw-together thing that required about five minutes of prep and about 40 minutes of oven time.
It's October and nothing says "October" better than 'kraut, sausage, apples, cider, and beer. So here it was: I emptied a can of sauerkraut into a baking dish, mixed in a 1/2 cup of apple cider and two peeled/chopped McIntosh apples, and then put some turkey kielbasa on top. I convection-baked at 350 degrees for about 35-40 minutes (go with 375 if you're not using convection.) I served it with some dijon mustard for dipping and a good German lager for the wash-down. Before I knew it, there was a mini-Octoberfest in 45 minutes or less. The sweetness of the apples and cider played off against the sourness of the 'kraut really well and the beer was the perfect compliment. Even the kids liked it-- minus the beer, of course!
See, this cooking thing is not so hard sometimes!
