I swear we're still eating...

Oh lovely lovely food blog - I promise I haven't forgotten about you and nor have I dallied in my culinary creating. I shall provide updates in somewhat time relevant manners from here on out.  >.<

Now where did I put that flux capacitor?

Easter. My easter dinner must be noted upon namely because it was amazingly sacrilicious! That's right I said sacrilicious! I present for you my Easter creation:

That's right. I'm horrible. I made a Jesus-loaf for Easter dinner. >.< He's even made of lamb - fitting I felt to be used to represent the lamb of god, no?

Here is my Jesusloaf recipe:

Balsamic-glazed Lamb Meatlof

2 slices of bread (I used a "fitness" bread from a local German bakery) crusts removed, torn into pieces
2.5 lbs ground lamb
1 large egg
4 garlic cloves, chopped
2 tbsp. fresh theme, chopped
salt and pepper
balsamic vinegar


Heat oven to 400° F. In a large bowl, combine the bread and 3 tablespoons water. Add the lamb, egg, garlic, thyme, ¾ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper.

Place the mixture on a foil-lined baking sheet and shape. (try to keep it about 3 inches thick at a maximum). Bake, brushing with the balsamic vinegar several times during cooking, until a thermometer inserted in the center registers 150° F, 30 to 35 minutes. Let rest at least 5 minutes before slicing. To add authenticity decorate Jesus with ketchup as seen below:
