What I Ate: April 10, 2010 (Austin Food Blogger Potluck, Domino's Pizza)

Lunch: The Austin Food Bloggers got together today for a potluck. I made Orange Bars (think Lemon Bars but made with fresh squeeze Texas oranges).

Dinner: I ordered from Domino's Pizza because our kitchen was out of commission for the evening (it had been temporarily converted into a poultry processing area due to a miscalculated purchase of 40 pounds of chicken backs that came as one solid frozen cube). After staring at all that chicken, I felt like buffalo wings again, so I ordered a batch (these were tender and juicy compared to last night's).

We also had a couple slices from a large ExtravaganZZa Feast pizza.

  • Can you share the recipe for the orange bars? They were soooo good.

Michael Chu, April 13th, 2010 at 10:24 pm:

  • The Orange Bars are very similar to the Lemon Bars recipe that I have on Cooking For Engineers. The main differences are that I use 2/3 cup fresh squeezed Texas orange juice and the zest from those oranges instead of the lemon juice and lemon zest. I also used 1/3 cup heavy cream instead of whole milk and baked the orange bars for about 25 minutes instead of 20 minutes. The crust was still prebaked for 20 minutes.
