No cooking since March?

I haven't posted anything since March.  I guess I don't really like cooking in the summer.

Banana-Walnut Muffins

The William Sonoma Muffin Cookbook is so awesome.  These muffins turned out really good.  They even look better than the picture in the cookbook.  I was afraid they would be moist like banana bread but they are more "muffiny." The walnuts make the texture of the muffin very nice.  I will definitely make these again.

Happy New Year! Picadillo "Pockets" (Sans Pockets)

So, to continue my trend of cooking orangy-red chili type foods. I found this recipe in the Women's Day Cookbook (1995).  It was really tasty.  It is made with ground turkey, onions, green pepper, cumin, golden raisins, tomato paste, and green olives.  I guess it's supposed to be stuffed into pita pockets but it also suggested corn bread.  I was going to make corn bread but I was really tired tonight so I just bought corn muffins at the store.  I would definitely make this recipe again.
