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

Beef and Broccoli Ramen
Strange comfort foods have always plagued me. No matter how hard I try to eat healthy and try new things in the kitchen, I'll always come back to those pre-packaged, not-so-good for you comfort foods. I'm talking toaster streudels, Eggo waffles, Fritos with bean dip...and ramen. Ah, ramen. The little 10 cent packages that contain… Continue reading Beef and Broccoli Ramen
Copycat Panda Express Mushroom Chicken
We don't eat a lot of fast food anymore. The older your get, the less appealing drive-through fast food is. I remember being in college and devouring a plate of nachos bell grande at 2 in the morning. If I did that now, it would not end well. The only "fast food" I partake in---albeit in a… Continue reading Copycat Panda Express Mushroom Chicken
