Mexican Street Corn Salad
Do you love Mexican Street Corn? It’s so tasty, but sometimes you can’t or don’t want to get corn on the cob. Also, Mexican Street Corn can be a little messy to eat. Enter this salad version. It’s the same delicious flavors and taste but in loose corn form. It is insanely good and I’ve made it a bunch of times now. I base my recipe off of this recipe I found on Pinterest and I basically follow the recipe except I don’t use cilantro (cause I hate it!) and I also skip the red onions. The recipe also serves 12 so I always halve the recipe and have enough to…

Chicken Stuffing Bake
Happy Saturday! I’m back with another recipe post and I have to preface this by saying this chicken stuffing bake is not the prettiest, but it does taste good! I found this recipe through Pinterest and I followed the recipe except I halved it. Even after halving the recipe, the dish came out more liquid-y/runny than the photos of the original recipe. I read a few comments that said it came out runny, but those people had used homemade cream of chicken soup and I used canned so I thought I’d be okay. Nope. It was still runny when I made it so it’s not the prettiest dish, but as…

October 2019 Favorites
How was everyone’s Halloween? Aside from the kids at school dressing up, it didn’t really feel like Halloween to me! So the fact that it’s now November is just crazy to me. I don’t have that many October favorites, but the ones I do have I seriously love. First up, empanadas from Division Street Cafe. Earlier in the month I was really in the mood for some empanadas and I have gotten take out empanadas from Division Street Cafe multiple times this month! They heat up great for lunch at work too! One photo is from when I was heating up a bunch at home and one photo is from when I…

Yorkshire Pudding
With the holidays arriving before we know it, I wanted to share a yorkshire pudding recipe ahead of time. I first had yorkshire pudding when I went to England in college. I had no idea that yorkshire pudding was actually kind of like a pastry side dish and not an actual pudding. Anyway, I liked it so much that when I got home I told my mom about it and we’ve been making it ever since. I use a recipe from cooks.com. You’ll need flour, salt, eggs, milk, and oil. The recipe is really easy, but time consuming because the batter needs to chill in the refrigerator for 2 hours…

Wild Rice & Mushroom Pilaf
I recently shared a cranberry, apple, pecan wild rice which is one of my favorite meals I’ve made via Pinterest. Today’s wild rice pilaf is another one I found on Pinterest and is delicious as well. Although it does come second to the cranberry one! Nonetheless I wanted to share it on here. This wild rice & mushroom pilaf recipe that I found on Pinterest is great. I followed the recipe with two exceptions. Instead of vegetable broth, I used chicken broth. The other change I made was adding a 4th mushroom. The recipe calls for button, cremini, and shitaki, but I added in a 4th mushroom – king oyster.…

Egg & Bagel Breakfast Sandiwch + Pork Belly
Happy Saturday! I’m so happy it’s the weekend and that it’s a 3-day weekend for me! As I’ve shared before on here, weekends are the only time where I can have a real breakfast and not something quick on my way to work. Since I’m currently staying at my parents’ house until my condo is ready for me to move in my weekend breakfasts here usually consist of whatever is in the fridge here and/or what my mom makes. But when I was back in my townhouse I sometimes made breakfasts made up of things I had leftover. Omelettes, breakfast quesadillas, etc. I saved some photos on my phone from…

Roasted Potato Salad
As we’re in that transition time between seasons, I thought this recipe was the perfect one to share today. It’s October, but some days are still in the 80s, even 90s here! Although yesterday was chilly and pouring rain and in the 50s so who knows what season it is. Enter this roasted potato salad recipe that I found on Pinterest. Potato salad is seen as a summer side with thoughts of barbecues and picnics, but roasting food is very much fall and winter geared. Put them together and you get this roasted potato salad! I followed the recipe (linked above) but used 1/2 the green bell pepper instead of…

Stuffed Salmon
How has your weekend been so far? Good, I hope! Yesterday I had to run some errands like returning something at the mall and placing orders for flooring, etc. Home ownership/renovation errands galore over here. I’ve got plans to go apple picking today with some friends! Hopefully that will turn out well – you can follow my Instagram stories because I’ll probably have some stories from my apple picking adventures on there. Today, I’m sharing this stuffed salmon recipe that I’ve made via Pinterest and loved! As with most of the recipes I find I basically followed the recipe I found. The only thing that I changed was that I used…
