Sometimes, I get so in the mood when I'm cooking, I forget to put ingredients into a dish. Thankfully it's never happened with something essential to a recipe, like baking soda in a cake or eggs in a meatloaf...but I do have this tendency to leave out benign ingredients like garnishes or herbs. I left… Continue reading Chicken & Greens Stir Fry

Turkey & Green Bean Stir-Fry
There are very few meals that I make more than once. It's not that I don't like what I'm making, it's just that I'm constantly having to make new things so I can blog about it. Most normal people have a handful of recipes they keep in their dinner rotation. That's things like meatloaf, roast… Continue reading Turkey & Green Bean Stir-Fry

Despite the… Continue reading Chicken Teriyaki Zoodles
Thai Almond Zoodle Bowl
I think I've gotten a contact high from some paint job Rob was working on. Wooh. Not nearly enough ventilation in this apartment, that's for sure. I also made matters worse by busting out the grill pan and grilling up some bratwurst for lunch. The grill pan and brats produced a lot of smoke; I… Continue reading Thai Almond Zoodle Bowl
Korean Turkey Bowls
If you haven't noticed by now, I'm slightly obsessed with "bowl" meals. They just makes sense to me. If you're trying to eat better, eat healthier---the easiest thing is to throw a meal together in a bowl and chow down. I'm constantly experimenting with my bowl-making skills. Banh mi bowls, anyone? Shrimp bowls with ranch… Continue reading Korean Turkey Bowls
