I haven’t made this for dinner in years and I’m not quite sure why, as it used to be a staple in my rotation for a long time. I actually totally forgot about it until I was at lunch with some co-workers last week and one of them mentioned how they make an “egg roll......
It seems like everyone is OBSESSED with protein right now. Watch any amount of foodie Tik Tok and you’ll be assaulted with ways to increase the protein in your meals/snacks/life. One of the ways to do this is via an ingredient I’ve avoided for my entire life: cottage cheese. I remember my Mom would sometimes......
At some point during the pandemic, I started making Pinterest boards for dinner parties that I wanted to host when lockdowns finished and life returned to “normal”. To be honest, they were all various Thanksgiving themed boards, based around me FINALLY roasting a turkey for the first time in my life. I decided this was......
I absolutely adore Molly Yeh, and have a series recording set up on my PVR for Girl Meets Farm so I never miss an episode. HOWEVER, it’s pretty rare that I make any of the recipes I actually see on the show, since Molly is routinely doing things like handmaking fresh pasta for homemade ravioli,......
Shawarma is one of the primary joys in my life and I was excited at the prospect of replicating it at home when I saw this recipe on the (oddly named) Plays Well With Butter blog. Obviously I knew I’d never be able to match the happiness of watching chicken shawarma get sliced off a......
I unabashedly love Mexican chain restaurants. Give me a a bottomless basket of tortilla chips and salsa, and then a flaming cast iron skillet of chicken fajitas and I am the happiest camper. Lone Star has been my go to for so many years; at my first job after university it’s where I bonded with......
I haven’t made anything new from the Half Baked Harvest blog in a hot minute, and as soon as I started preparing this recipe I remembered why. So many components! So many ingredients! So many dishes! I kind of hoped this wouldn’t be good after all this, but damn, it really was. And it only......
I wrote in my June recap that I kind of forgot to switch up my cooking for the warm weather months, so I’ve been looking for summery recipes to try lately. I kept seeing this salad bowl on Mel’s Kitchen CafĂ© when I was searching for her cilantro lime rice, and gave it a try......
What’s your trashy food court favourite food? I don’t really partake that much any more (and obviously not right now), but in my childhood and teen years, I was a food court champion. I can still picture the scene at my childhood mall, where it usually came down to a battle between two places: NY......
I made these delicious tacos earlier in the summer and knew they’d be perfect for my Emmys viewing party (after copious amounts of guac & chips, natch). This is the best kind of slowcooker (or instant pot) recipe – just add everything in and turn it on. The ranch slaw is also perfect (with or......
