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!)
For the past few months, it feels like I have been craving something that I haven’t been able to put my finger on. As I scrolled through Pinterest after posting my last recipe, I came across a blueberry & raspberry muffins recipe by Savory Nothings that caused my inner monologue to scream “That’s it! That’s…
This quick sesame chicken and broccoli recipe, originally from Averie Cooks, consists of everything I was craving this week. (Yes, I was actually craving broccoli). It’s simple enough to make on a weeknight, and the leftovers are great for lunches the next day. Perfect for meal prep, you get a good serving of vegetable, protein,…
This Irish Tea Cake from Let’s Dish Recipes uses ingredients already found in most pantries. I haven’t exactly been the most successful baker, but the goal to be one has not been left behind in 2022. Along with learning Finnish (Thank you, Duolingo), I am making it a goal to bake at least 12 new…

Yesterday, I made Crispy Chickpeas with Pork (which was delicious). While that was a successful recipe, I had other plans for how to use the pork- this tasty pork and chickpea soup by Woman’s Day. Budgeting-wise, this just goes to show how many meals you can get out of one package of ground meat! Since…
To say that I was excited about lunch is an understatement. I had planned on making this Crispy Chickpeas with Pork recipe for a couple of days, so I was eager to begin cooking. One of the biggest things that I need to work on, is not skipping meals. For example, while I love breakfast…
If you were to ask my Mom whether or not I like mushrooms, she would probably mention how I disliked them when I was a child. Over the years, this changed… slightly. Mind you, they still aren’t in my Top 10 foods. This doesn’t stop me from using them in recipes! Thanks to the health…
