This video recipe for Flank Steak with Cabrales Cheese, reminds me of my theory that American's fondness for blue cheese as a garnish for burgers, steak, and other foods, can be traced all the way back to the Buffalo chicken wing.
Now, I've done no research, nor will I, as I find it easier to simply guess about these kind of things, but think about it - who was crumbling blue cheese on their hamburgers before the chicken wing made it socially acceptable to eat our traditional meats and poultry with this funky addition?
This delicious incarnation features juicy flank steak topped with Spain's famous Cabrales blue cheese. This flank steak recipe is simple to make, and even if your grilling days are over this season, you can pan sear or use a grill pan inside to make this dish. Enjoy!

I wanted to give equal time, so it wouldn't look like I was officially endorsing someone. For some reason there were much better McCain pumpkin carvings, than Obama on Flickr (at least the ones I could use), so don't take that as any kind of media bias. While my preference will be kept to myself, I hope you all vote.

This photo is from a video recipe that will premiere tomorrow. Hint: It's not vegan.
A fan of the site, Balu, sent in this great photo of the poor, misunderstood Brussel sprouts, and asked if I had a video recipe for this "interesting vegetable" as it was described in the email. Well, yes I do; 60-Second Brussel Sprouts!
Believe it or not, this video recipe came up during the About.com meetings in Las Vegas. My friends and bosses, the lovely and talented Bonnie and Gina, told me that this was the most popular recipe I'
ve done for them (and I've done a lot). They're both big fans of the veggie now, and regularly forward the recipe to friends. Yes, Brussel sprouts, who knew?
You will see these all over the produce department this time of year, and in my humble opinion this 60-Second Brussel Sprouts recipe best shows off their sweet, delicate flavor. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
18 Brussel Sprouts, sliced very thin
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp butter
1 lemon, juiced
salt and pepper to taste
