late night cooking
last night i was hanging out with some friends and we got hungry so i whipped up a few late-night entrees.

one: stir-fry veggies with teriyaki sauce, general tsao sauce, and soy sauce, with an egg scrambled in
two: animal-style grilled cheese (mushrooms...

Salmon w. Fig Balsamic Glaze
for Valentine’s Day i promised to make dinner and decided i wanted to make something special (but simple and healthy!)
this fig balsamic glaze was absolutely delicious, and the whole dinner was ready in about half an hour
Ingredients:

Chinese Chicken Lettuce Wraps (as seen on...
I always look forward to friendly gatherings, especially if they involve food, so, naturally, I was pumped for the Super Bowl this past weekend. This year, I wanted to make something delicious that everyone would enjoy, while keeping it healthy and light. In addition to making some baked sweet potato fries, which are my go-to healthy side dish, I decided to make some Chinese chicken lettuce...

FINALLY someone recognizes what's going on!
as i was checking my email about a minute ago, i saw on the news feed an article by Huffington Post discussing the undercover world of “thinspiration” blogging. as you may or may not have read my “About My Blog” section, but this is exactly what I’m talking about.

latest curiosity...
peanut butter.
it seems like i keep hearing such different opinion s about whether it’s “good” or “bad” to eat.

so i made sweet potato fries... again...
but these were the best batch so far without a doubt. honestly, i don’t think i can even call what i’ve been making “sweet potato fries” after tasting what i made last night
i prepared these ahead of time so that all i had to do was cook them once we got to our friend’s apartment to watch the superbowl
i made these a little differently:
1. preheat oven to 450
