关于我的美食与养身文件夹: 自己到了美国很多年,最喜欢的菜还是自己的家乡菜----四川菜。自己做的地道川菜也吸引了很多美国朋友。以前很固执,只吃美国人做的菜,也不想学习他们的厨艺。但是在这里住久了也发现其实有些民族的菜也很健康和诱人,但是我最钟爱的是陶瓷炖锅菜,因为这个方法真的很省时间而且个人感觉它最大限度地保留了材料的原汁原味。因此,在我这个文件夹里,我把自己尝试过的新菜谱保存下来,献给自己和喜欢研究英文菜谱的朋友。 由于工作学习太忙,我没有时间把菜谱翻译成中文奉献给那些也许不喜欢读英文但是也喜欢这些美食图片的朋友。担是,对于经常做菜的厨艺高手来说,也许你看一下图片就能得到灵感,创造出适合自己的美食。当然,对于象我这样的,喜欢营养美食的“懒人大厨”,大概看一下关键材料,不用花时间去研究原创作者用了多少材料,也可以随意用相近的食材做出自己喜欢的品味。 ![]() 菜名: Meatballs {Slow Cooker} Spaghetti and Meatballs in Tomato-Basil Sauce http://www./recipe/spaghetti-meatballs-tomato-basil-sauce
