    Vampire Steak

    Vampire steak. It's blood red from the smoked paprika and garlicy to keep the vampires away. I saw this recipe in the July issue of Cooking Light's magazine and decided to give it a try. Just because I like vampires. I'm a big fan of the show Vampire Diaries on the CW. That's how I came up with the title of my blog. I just combined recipes and the word diaries together and there you have it. I do like that show a lot better than  Twighlight. In the Vampire Diaries the description of the vampire is better and there's a lot more drama and hotter men. 🙂 I'm really disappointed at the CW for taking away my witch show still. Hope it comes back.

    Ben had the idea to put a black rose in the picture. We've had those black roses sitting in our bathroom since Halloween.

    Flank steak is a really lean protein, and only 3 oz of this is 4 points. That's a pretty good deal. I made some garlic mashed potatoes to go a long with it.

      The best picture of that steak has the black rose in it... that was a good idea for a photo prop.
