The Challenge: 68 Weeks. 71 Recipes.

I plan on doing this for lunch today when my mom comes home from school; I have never cooked with Kielbasa or even heard of it. I was a bit confused when I read the directions when Kanan said to, “cut the kielbasa into 6 lengths, then butterfly the pieces by slicing them lengthwise” after I looked at the picture of the burgers I finally understood what he meant.

I admit it, as I do every post… I’m scared!

We don’t have a grill! I asked my dad how we were going to make it if we didn’t have a grill… He said to use the stove.. but Kanan said at the beginning of the directions,

” Prepare a grill to medium-high or preheat the broiler.”

We don’t have a broiler either. so I will do my best and figure out how to do it with a stove..Sometimes I feel weird when I tell my friends I don’t have most of the cool equipment they have at home… Mainly, of course, a large kitchen or 10 different kinds of pans.

And a grill.

I might not have a whole lot of things that my classmates might have but at least I have the determination to get onto the next level and graduate and finally be able to open up my own restaurant!

I will now wait till mom comes home. In the meantime, I will be playing Battlefront. 🙂

~TIME SKIP~

Okay! Time to cook! I started to mix the lettuce with the balsamic vinegar and the olive oil, then I threw the onions on the pan with oils. As it popped, I had to dodge every spark of fire and boiling oil, now I’m an expert at dodging!

As I said before, I didn’t know how to cook Kielbasa…. so I literally threw it in another pan. Forgetting that I had to cut them into slices… That’s when my dad came in and saved the day by grabbing it and cutting them into butterfly slices!

So then I put together the sandwiches… To me they tasted like Teriyaki burgers in Carl’s Jr…. but better! Healthier! My dad had to agree with me. The only thing I would say to change would be the bread, instead of onion rolls, I would choose some other type of bread. That’s all for today and see you in the next post!
