Last year, my parents got us a Gotham Steel Crisper Tray. I used it a couple of times to experiment with making healthier fries at home but rarely used it for other foods. I felt bad that it wasn’t being used as frequently as I had planned. As you may have guessed, I used it…

After falling in love with cooking over ten years ago, I’ve made it a goal to cook and learn about various ingredients and dishes. It’s all about learning- not about the meals being perfect. Please join me as I continue this adventure! (98% of the recipes end up being delicious- it’s worth following along!)
Whole Wheat Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe
Don’t let the name of this recipe deter you- this whole wheat chocolate chip cookies recipe is now one of my favorite recipes! Ah, Betty Crocker- don’t you just love her? Well, not really “her” since she’s not a real person… but you know what I mean. If you haven’t looked at the official Betty…
Homemade Granola Bars Recipe
I’ve loved granola bars ever since I was a kid. They were often the treat that my Mom packed in my lunches for school and very rarely did they return home uneaten. These days, they are what I am eating as my dessert or mid-day snack. Since I’ve never baked homemade granola bars, I thought…
Tuna Wraps Recipe

Thai Quinoa Salad Recipe
To be frank, I rarely buy quinoa. Which, is a bit odd since every time I eat it, I enjoy it. (There is a Tabbouleh salad that I make during the summer that is delicious). In order to add quinoa to my “winter meal plan”, I thought I would try making a Thai quinoa salad….
Peppercorn Pork Chops Recipe
Thanks to this week’s specials and recipe inspiration from Seasons and Suppers, the recipe of the week is… *Drumroll, please*… peppercorn pork chops! I usually make simple recipes when pork chops are the main protein. With this being said, this recipe does have more ingredients than I’m used to for pork chops. However, it is…
