73 Back to School Lunch Recipes | Epicurious
With all the entrepreneurial spirit this world has, and especially including America, it has always seemed odd to me that an independent restaurant corporation cannot be employed by each and every school district to serve ala-carte lunch by a published menu to parents and everyone concerned — so that pricing and planning can be established (as well as you know, school aide if necessary), for the purpose of serving food to everyone in the school district during school hours. Wouldn’t that make life easier, healthier and more economical for everyone?
And seriously for that matter — there could be independent health corp and independent gym and athletics corp and independent placement and development, counseling and vocational corp in each and every school district that would also benefit the community in so far as everyone involved in every school. Because a system like that, of hiring independent consulting and on-premise corporations (for that matter, including security corporations), would allow everyone a chance to receive service from a school and also to not compete with other persons from personnel to staff to visitors to guests to anyone for their place in line for service. It would free up people and give people jobs and let children have a chance at a real life instead of spending all their school years fighting social wars over their rights as people in the public (or private) school system.
But that has been my idea for a long time. Not down-playing the opportunity for expanding jobs and also expanded government investment by private sector companies.
I’m a real radical. I believe in government for hire and hiring government. I call myself a Liberal.

Crab and Shrimp linguine w/ Red Chili Garlic Butter
Red chili crisps in oil is my latest obsession. I love the heat it gives off. Toss a little bit in your regular dishes adds such great amount of flavor. It can easily make a boring dish interesting.
Red chili crisp in oil are simmered Schezuan peppers so they get super crispy then added into oil with whole peanuts so its just a concentrate of flavor. With this recipe though you want to be careful and get the red chili oil with the peppers and not just straight chili oil.
I love this recipe because its surprisingly quick while it seems like it something you’ve taken all day to prepare. The sweet crab and shrimp matched with the Schezuan gives this the perfect balance of sweet and heat.
Ingredients
- 2lb peeled and deveined shrimp
- 1c jumbo lump crab
- 1lb linguine
- 4 kefir lime leaves
- 1/4c + 2TB red chili crisp…

Seafood Rolls
I wanna start off by saying I love love love these seafood rolls. I started making these after my dad told me about them. He had them in a restaurant and wanted me to recreate them because according to him he could eat dozens. So my first go around I tried them and gave them my best shot. I couldn’t pin point the actual roll part of these rolls. It was very frustrating since everything else was so straight forward. Fortunately for me I was working with not one, but two people that worked for that restaurant that were more than willing to give it to me. When they said it filo dough, I felt a calm in the world and a little silly because now it’s painfully obvious.The original recipe calls for a alfredo sauce on the inside of the roll. I opted out of that because it seems…

Roasted Garlic and Calabrian Chili Fingerling Potatoes

You know those kind of things that you try and its like where have you been all my life? How did i survive for so long without this? Calabrian chilis are absolutely that for me. Calabrian’s are something i’ve always heard of but never tried. Actually, when i tried them i didn’t realize they were Calabrian for about another year. When i first tried Calabrian chilis i was in Frankfurt, Germany at a really cool pizza shop. On the table they had peppers in oils and that’s were this love story started. After getting back from Germany i obsessed over this pizza, thought about it constantly. Even regularly looked them up for ANY sort of indication of what kind of peppers they were. No, it didn’t occur to me to ask at the time. Probably because i had a couple pints with my pizza. Anyways, after enough complaining and reminiscing…
