In the midst of the Covid Pandemic, I’m testing out new breakfast foods everyday as a fun way to start the day at home. Today’s breakfast was a real treat from Budget Bytes: Cheddar Grits Breakfast Bowl. I’ve had a similar dish while out at brunch, and fell in love! Being able to recreate it at home was a nice surprise. It is a pretty easy recipe, cheap to make, and only uses a small amount of ingredients. It is also a good pantry meal for future reference!

Cook’s Country Jalapeno-Cheddar Cornbread
In the midst of the Covid Pandemic, I’ve decided to take up freezing food. Freezing food has never been a habit of mine, but with the time at home that I have, I’ve decided to learn the tricks of the freezing trade. I started reading Budget Byte’s Freezer guide, found cornbread was one on the many foods that is easy to freeze, and immediately decided to make it.
Pinch of Yum’s (Vegan) Crunchwrap Supreme
It has been YEARS since I’ve had a crunchwrap supreme, but thanks to Pinterest, I came across a vegan version. Pinch of Yum was kind enough to also film a recipe video for the making of this delicious treat…
NYT’s Cheesy Baked Orzo With Marinara
Hello! and yes, it is another NYT Cooking app recipe, and it is absolutely delicious! STEP ONE: Make sure your ingredients in the fridge are not expired before you’re in the middle of a recipe and without a viable ingredient!
NYT’s Sheet-Pan Harissa Salmon With Potatoes and Citrus
I recently subscribed to the NYT Cooking site/app because I fell in love with Alison Roman’s “The Stew” recipe, and fell into a YouTube rabbit hole featuring all of NYT Cooking’s recipe videos. To get the exact recipes, you really need the subscription (so I bought it). So far, I can honestly say…
Nyssa’s Kitchen Chickpea and Tomato Coconut Curry Soup
“You know the feeling – don’t you? When you suddenly find yourself reaching for your fleece before getting in your car to drive home from work, bc BRRR as you think about what would be good for dinner, and the only answer that chimes in your head with a resounding YES is… soup.”
The Curious Chickpea’s Vegan Tahini Chocolate Chip Cookies
My favorite desert on this planet is the glorious chocolate chip cookie. In 2017, I attempted to recreate this Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe trial that Buzzfeed did, but I didn’t get through all of the recipes. Once I made the Nestle Tollhouse recipe, I didn’t feel the need to look further
Molly Yeh’s Fortune Cookies
If you don’t know by now, I am a big fan of Girl Meets Farm/Molly yeh. I was watching one of the episodes from season two that is dedicated to Chinese New Year, and Molly makes fortune cookies with her sisters. I watched twice scene TWICE before making the cookies. It really looks very simple. Alas, only 4 out of 12 cookies turned out to make the shape (and still two of those suffered serious cracks)…
Bon Appetit’s Breakfast Bowl with Sweet Potatoes and Turmeric Egg
Bon Appetit is one of my favorite places to go for recipe inspiration. However, this recipe was a mild disappointment, and with as many recipes as they have on their site, not all of them can be winners. ALSO, I did some of improvisation, so the results could be my fault…
Molly Yeh’s Carrot Apple Juice
I’m so happy I came across this recipe. I was watching Girl Meets Farm, when I saw Molly making this juice. Luckily for me, I’ve recently fallen in love with turmeric and ginger, so I was immediately intrigued.
