Spice Up Your Life is a weekly recipe column by Lindsey Young, who describes herself as an enthusiastic amateur cook and can be reached through her website at spiceupkitchen.net.Something I probably haven’t mentioned often is that I have a constant helper in the kitchen when I try recipes for this column.Sometimes she gets to sample something, and sometimes she is informed that the particular creation at hand is “not good for puppies.”Regardless, our 15-year-old schnauzer, K.C., hopefully follows me around the kitchen or gazes at me from a good napping spot, hoping I will be clumsy enough to drop something or gracious enough to share.Often, she gets lucky, and this week’s recipe is one of her favorite kinds: one that only uses half an egg.
