NY Times #93
If you caught the "Dining In" section of The New York Times, on Wednesday, July 18th you saw Mark Bittman's article,
"Summer Express: 101 Simple Meals Ready in 10 Minutes or Less".
It's a real winner! It was first forwarded to me as an email from the Calphalon g-ddess, and then the newspaper section was passed to me by my grandmother. The email noted #93 as a recipe of interest and my grandmother pointed out her favorite ideas, so I skimmed the list and decided to try some of these recipes during the next few weeks to see what I like best.
Honestly, they are all healthy and hearty meals made from summer produce and basic food staples.
Recognizing that my friend had probably forwarded the article to others with the mention of #93, I thought it would be a nice gesture to start there first.

93: Cut up Italian sausage into chunks and brown in a little olive oil until just about done. Dump in a lot of seedless grapes and, if you like, a little slivered garlic and chopped rosemary. Cook, stirring, until the grapes are hot. Serve with bread.
This is it. Easy and it literally took 10 minutes to finish the whole project. It smelled absolutely divine. I used spicy turkey sausages, seedless red grapes, chopped garlic and fresh rosemary from my patio herb garden.
Stay tuned for more adventures from the Summer Express 101 list.

“Glass City Gourmet” is a chronicle of one woman's attempt to cook, eat, diet and entertain with both flair and whimsy while based in Toledo, Ohio. I encourage you to read on as the "Glass City Gourmet" attempts grand recipes, samples locally owned restaurants, visits indigenous markets and humbly pursues her quest to be formally recognized as the official "Glass City Gourmet".
As a former Toledoan who loves good food, I find your blog very entertaining. I, too, experience the unending battle between loving food and wanting to stay at a healthy weight. If I find any really fabulous recipes that allow for gustatory satisfaction and don't break the calorie bank, I'll send them on to you.
