General Tso’s-Style Ground Chicken
If you love making your own Chinese food at home, stick around until the end. It's -2 degrees here in Oklahoma and it's now been more than a week since I left the house.

Chile Garlic Shrimp
I've been dying to find new shrimp recipes. I love shrimp. I adore it. Shrimp was my favorite food growing up.

Shrimp was always a fancy, but not too fancy form… Continue reading Chile Garlic Shrimp

Chana Masala Breakfast Tacos
One of the worst things about moving out of the city is the lack of food options. I no longer live near a Crest grocery store. My favorite Thai food is at least 30 minutes away. There's a lack of options when it comes to Chinese restaurants. Korean and Vietnamese restaurants are non-existent. And I… Continue reading Chana Masala Breakfast Tacos
Sesame Noodle Bowls
Do you ever get those random hunger pangs for something so oddly specific that you don't know if you even really like that thing at all? I do. Almost everyday.
