September 14, 2020 Come on bring your friends, it’s adventure time! Today I couldn’t say no to trying this strange thing that seems like a healthy take on the quintessential Poptart (TMTMTMTMTM). Not that blackberries, sweet potatoes, and chia seeds sound particularly appetizing as a combination, but I do like blackberries, I like to have…
Perfectly Cooked and Easy to Peel Hard (or soft) Boiled Eggs
Oh eggs. Never did I fully appreciate thee until thine retail price skyrocketed beyond my wildest beliefs. Just like how talking about being itchy suddenly makes me want to scratch, the higher the price of eggs got, the more I seemed to crave dishes with eggs. 🙄 I always believed that hard boiled eggs should…
Easy Vegan Avocado Smoothie
A ripe, bruise-free avocado is like finding the pot of gold at the end of a rainbow with the caveat of going bad if stored too long. Of course, avocado toast or guac are honorable destinies for an avocado but an interesting one you should try once should be an avocado smoothie. Mellow, sweet, and…
Instant Pot Barbacoa recipe
Tried a copycat chipotle barbacoa instant pot recipe but subbed diced chicken breast instead of beef and it turned out okay. A few notes of improvement: Too spicy and acidic: possibly because there wasn’t enough fat content from the chicken breast substitution to balance out the acidity, but it was way too spicy and acidic….
Turkey Chili Recipe
This one is dear to my heart as one of my first easy bulk/weeknight meals that I learned to make as a budding adult. The value of a reliable, easy, cheap, healthy recipe is priceless. It’s high in protein, delicious, a fan favorite of my husband’s, and very freezable! It all started with a chili…
Don’t throw away your green onion ends!
Some people seemed to like the “Don’t throw away your rotisserie chicken” article, so here’s another one (I got these for days folks). Today I present to you a way to DOUBLE green onions. Yes, buy one get one…every time! When you buy your bunch of green onion, leave the rubber band on the white…
Don’t throw away your rotisserie chicken!
If there’s one thing I love it’s sipping on a warm, comforting bowl of homemade chicken broth. Nothing in a can at the store can compare, so put DOWN that horrid canned abomination (it seriously just tastes like salty water) and let’s make the easiest and cheapest chicken broth ever! Let’s just talk, for one…
Review of Veggieful Veggie & Mozzarella Bites
September 27, 2020 When I saw these at my local 99 cent store, the first thing that popped into my mind was “Oh, healthy version of pizza bites” and, dear Watson, was I correct. These were pretty darn good for healthy food. I baked them for the indicated 9 minutes, but I think I could’ve…
Review of Evol Soba Noodles with Vegetables in Creamy Cashew Sauce
September 24, 2020 I saw this gem in the 99 cent store and it looked reminiscent of Lean Cuisine (TM) meals I used to eat a long long time ago. Frozen meals typically smell great, taste okay, and leave me still hungry, but for $0.99 I had to give it a go. To be clear,…
Review of Sambazon Açaà Bites
September 23, 2020 In the vast lands of small towns all over the United States, Sambazon products in grocery stores were the first exposures people had to the word açaà and also the trend of açaà bowls. Açaà berries grow on palm trees and Sambazon initiated mass production of these in Brazil. The American açaÅ
Review of Young’s Flipper Dippers
September 23, 2020 I have a few confessions: I hate reality shows, but I love food shows. Gordon Ramsey’s Kitchen Nightmares is both. And as such, it is both horrendous and attention gripping. I tell myself, “I can’t watch this, this is stupid” I walk away and then I peak around the corner again because…
