Woo-hoo!
Alton Brown answers the questions at Slashdot, at last! I loved the answer to the question about the Iron Chef. He seemed a bit ... "off" ... in a lot of the answers. I'm kinda assuming
that it's because Good Eats has become so successful that he's get busier
than he ever dreamed. He sounded a bit harried and rushed, maybe even
stressed in some of his answers. And he's such a cool guy usually. Even
though I was disappointed in his answer to the
lava-flow cooked
chicken question, I'll give him a break. By-the-way - cooking a chicken using a couple of shovelfuls of lava? Now
that's SERIOUSLY cool. I would LOVE to be able to try that.

I haven't shared a recipe in a while so here goes: 1 lb ground beef Brown the ground beef. Add the spices and incorporate thoroughly. Add the
frozen peas and cook until they are no longer frozen. Add the tomato
pesto, stir through throughly and remove from heat. Warm the tortilla ( I usually zap in a microwave for a couple of seconds).
Add the shredded cheese and sliced olives. Spoon on the meat mixture, then
top with the yogurt. Roll up like a burrito and enjoy!
1 package frozen peas
Spices to taste: ginger, cumin, garlic, onion powder, salt, black
pepper
About a tablespoon of tomato pesto (optional)
