mmmuffaletta

adam and i started making dinner together when we were roomies. it goes without saying that we both love to eat, but i think our joint cooking ventures started because of tv. we'd watch hours and hours of food porn cooking shows until we were delirious with hunger and deluded enough to think that we could just whip up whatever ina garten had spent the last nine episodes making. then, a quick trip to the grocery store followed by seventy two hours dizzying around in the kitchen and voila! dinner was served!

when we eventually moved in to our own places, we decided to keep making dinner. so every tuesday night  for the past (almost) two years, we hang out at adam's and cook. then we eat and watch wipeout. (if you're ever sad, watch an episode. it's very serious about being hillarious.) so basically, i love tuesdays.

anyways, dinner last night was amazing! and predictably, i forgot my camera.
i did however take this lovely photo of the leftovers i crammed into my bag for lunch.
so picture this, but less mangled:



muffeletta- the sandwich.

featuring in order of appearance:


foccacia
mayonnaise
fontina
pickled vegetables
roasted red pepper
basil
red onion
prosciutto
mortadella
soppresata
calabria
olive tapenade
more foccacia


the pickled vegetables were so good- cauliflower, green beans, olives, pepperoncinis, carrots!
i also loved making the sandwiches. stack + press = fun! PANINI MAKER 4 LIFE.

oh yeah. then right after all of this next level sandwich stuff, we ate pecan pie that adam MADE FROM SCRATCH. with MAPLE WHIPPED CREAM.


i ate my piece in a trillisecond and then promptly wanted to die because it felt like i was pregnant with food triplets.


tuesdays, man.
so epic.
