The milk, butter and eggs can be replaced by non-dairy alternatives. You can put a lot of different toppings. Think omelette! For instance (amount of topping per pancake): • 1/8 cup chopped red onion • 1/4 cup chopped red bell pepper • 1 ounce smoked salmon, slices or chopped • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill You can also add herbs in the pancake dough, like Herbes de Provence, or cumin/turmeric/cardamom/paprika for a more adventurous middle Eastern flavor (I used that with onion & eggplant the other day, very good, too). #MartisMusicKit #MMK #MartiMendenhall #Food #Music #Podcast #Recipes #MusicAndFood #Cooking #OregonMusicNews #Podcast #Season1Cookbook #QuickBites #WhereAnythingCanHappen #CookingHacks #OregonMusicNews #Jazz #JettySwart #JetBlackPearl #Accordion #wackysongs #FunkyMusic #WorldFamous #FrenchSongAwards #Dutch #DutchCooking #Pannekoke #SavoryBuckwheatPancakes #DutchPancakes Short Hashtags: #MartisMusicKit #MMK #MartiMendenhall #JettySwart #JetBlackPearl #Pannekoke #DutchPancakes #WackyMusic #Accordion

Approximate amounts for 4 people Recommend cooking some of these in advance or making extra from another dinner/lunch during the week! Two Cups cooked brown rice One cup cooked lentils Two Cups roasted broccoli Two Cups roasted cauliflower Two Cups roasted sweet potatoes Two Cups shredded kale (recommend massaging it with a little salt, lemon juice and EVOO) Half cup sliced scallions Half cup dried cranberries One cup kimchi One cup pepitas One avocado chopped One pound of salmon - pan fried or BBQ'd on a grill Yumm sauce! (Although a Green Goddess dressing would also work in a pinch!) The pepitas and kimchee are the most fun and surprising ingredients. The crunchy saltiness of the pepitas and the umame tartness of the kimchi make the dish really pop! To roast the cauliflower and broccoli, or the chopped sweet potato: Toss in olive oil, season with salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder Place veggies on a cookie sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes in a 400 degree oven. Load up your bowls and go! All ingredients are optional of course, but we like it best with everything. #MartisMusicKit #MMK #MartiMendenhall #Food #Music #Podcast #Recipes #MusicAndFood #Cooking #OregonMusicNews #Podcast #Season1Cookbook #QuickBites #WhereAnythingCanHappen #CookingHacks #OregonMusicNews #Jazz #TheCiderJanes #MusicAmericana #VocalTrio #Folk #Pachangamama #RiceBowl #NaomiLaViolette #AliyihBristol #HeatherSchrock #ORS

Even Lyle Lovett has called Rich from the road - to consult his expertise on coffee machine recommendations. “The one rule around here is you don’t leave coffee. So on rehearsal nights … I make a pot of coffee and it’s like I don’t want anybody to leave until all the coffee’s gone!” Find out more secrets of this multi-talented roots rock front man, Rich Layton - on the next Marti’s Music Kitchen - on the Marti Mendenhall YouTube channel and Oregon Music News.com Be sure to check out our “Quick Bites” of this episode and highlights from the show - by subscribing to the Marti Mendenhall YouTube channel - be part of the first 1,000 subscribers! https://www.youtube.com/user/MartiMendenhall Rich Layton: https://richlayton.us/home https://open.spotify.com/artist/4vYbgITLpF9FUV8hjtdyfb https://music.apple.com/uy/artist/rich-layton-and-tough-town/id1456404863 Marti’s Links! http://MartiMendenhall.com http://Patreon.com/MartiMendenhall Marti’s Music Kitchen Season 1 Cookbook! https://martimendenhall.com/cookbook-store.html #MartisMusicKit #MMK #MartiMendenhall #Food #Music #Podcast #Recipes #MusicAndFood #Cooking #OMN #OregonMusicNews #Jazz #Podcast #Season1Cookbook #QuickBites #Creative #WhereAnythingCanHappen #MusicAndFood #CookingHacks #OMN #OregonMusicNews #Jazz #RichLayton #ToughTown #Harmonica #DukeOfJuke #Texas #Latte #Cappuccino #Blues #Swampadelic #Swampified #Coffee #CoffeeRecipes #LyleLovett #LucindaWilliams

Add 2 pads of butter and 2 tbls of olive oil and heat up. Cube sweet potatoes/yams, and the ham steak, into tiny, bite-size pieces (0.5cm or so!) Add potatoes to hot skillet and gently stir and flip (or as Dylan says, “flippy floppy”) until coated and softening. Add ham, continue with the flippy floppy. Chop spinach and rosemary. Add to pan once ham is browned. Add “deliberately unmeasured” amounts of Karam’s Garlic Sauce (or sub garlic) to your heart’s desire! Whisk 5-6 eggs and distribute them evenly in the pan. Resist urge to do anything else to it and just let it sit, covered, for 8-10 minutes (until the eggs in the center of the pan are hardening). Turn off heat and let sit, covered, for a couple minutes. Remove lid, then add sprinkles of goat cheese and shredded parmesan Serve! CREPE FILLING– Finely chop pistachios in food processor Grind cardamom pod with mortar and pestle (or a food processor if you don’t have one!) Mix together ground cardamom, pistachio, and 1tbs of sugar CREPES– Preheat second skillet with 2 pads butter In a bowl, mix eggs, water, milk, flour and nutmeg (and optional vanilla or almond flavoring) Whisk until smooth and runny Pour 1/3rd cup of the mix on pre-heated skillet Let bottom start to cook and spread the runny dough with a spatula on top as far along the pan as you can, making the widest “crepe-frisbee” possible Flip once it comes easily off the skillet (some people prefer it doughy, some prefer it with a little char, it’s up to you!) Transfer to a plate. Add two spoonfuls of the pistachio filling and roll into the classic crepe-shape Dress with two spoonfuls of creme fraiche. Drizzle with your favorite honey Add a bonus dash of nutmeg for both aesthetic and taste! TIPS from DYLAN DEAN: Mix the crepe dough in a tupperware container and store in fridge for up to 3 days Pre-chop the veggies ahead and store in fridge (except for the spinach, as it doesn’t keep) Pre-warming the skillets are important for both recipes #MartisMusicKit #MMK #MartiMendenhall #Food #Music #Podcast #Recipes #Breakfast #Frittata #Crepes #MusicAndFood #OMN #OregonMusicNews #Jazz #Podcast #Season1Cookbook #Art #Painting #DylanDean #DDMP #LebaneseFood #violin #MarkPowers
