Basque Salad
A tasty and refreshing salad. Nice to prepare ahead for company. An adaptation of a recipe from Marilyn Perzik on Allrecipes.com. I like to sprinkle the croutons on individual servings just before eating.

A long time ago I had a recipe from a Basque cookbook for really tasty eggs poached in a simple stew of tomatoes, peppers, and onions. I’ve since lost that recipe, but this is pretty close to the flavors (though I won’t claim it as authentic Basque cooking!) This is really quick to prepare, especially if you dice your veggies as you’re cooking instead of doing th prep work all up front (for example, while the sausage sautes, dice the onion, after the onion goes in, mince the garlic, once the garlic is in, dice the peppers, etc.) This can be made vegetarian/vegan by substituting 1 tsp. oil for the sausage.
I found this web on the net recently (I was on a Basque kick). I have not tried it out yet, but I am sucker for anything with lentils.
Spicy potatoes. You can do these in the oven if you like, but I find the stovetop to be easier when I have a limited amount of time and/or energy. When I’m feeling especially lazy, I sub out a premixed creole seasoning for the seasonings. Always add the fresh garlic though.
