What can you eat when you haven't gone grocery shopping and it's hot outside? The last thing I want to do is turning on the stove or anything that generate heat. Besides, I don't have anything that I can cook, my fridge is almost empty. The only thing I can come up with is this … Continue Reading ››
Whenever I told my family that I am making bread, spaghetti, cupcakes or the likes. They always ask me right away, "no seriously, what are you REALLY making?" I guess they know me too well. They know that if I'm going to be standing and working in the kitchen, the result better be healthy. It's … Continue Reading ››
I was planning to make ghee but I left it a bit too long. I was multitasking as usual and when I checked the ghee it was all browned. So sad, I thought I had to throw it out. But when I smelled it, it actually smelled really good. It has somewhat of a sweet … Continue Reading ››
This is one of the few kitchen tips that I learned from my mom. My mom taught me how to prevent cut apples from turning brown. What can I say, she's not a domestic mom. However, she's a great business woman and she gave me plenty of other great "non-kitchen related" advice. When I was … Continue Reading ››
This one is a fool proof recipe for baked mussels. Every time I had guests over and I didn't have a chance to order food, this is what I will make. Why? because I can't mess it up. I'm so afraid of cooking for other people because once we invited my parents in-law friends and I … Continue Reading ››

I like to put berries and dark chocolate, but you can definitely put any fruits you … Continue Reading ››
My husband just got back from a business trip. It means he needs major re-nourishment since he has been eating out for several days. I know he can choose his food wisely but I highly doubt the restaurants are using good quality ingredients. So, this is what I like to whip up if I think … Continue Reading ››
Dinner of the day (DOTD) is definitely not 15 minutes to prepare. If I had just made the Chicken Tikka Masala then it would only be 15 minutes. This afternoon I saw Nom nom Paleo posting a link to a Paleo naan bread recipe that only has … Continue Reading ››
Honestly, there are many days and nights when I really don't want to cook. I cook 5 days a week and 2 or 3 times a day. It seriously gets old. I tried making a bigger batch of food (like many people have suggested) but my family still finish it in one meal. I guess … Continue Reading ››
I love it when it gets warmer, it means berries are everywhere. Strawberries, raspberries, blueberries blackberries I eat them all. I especially like buying organic berries from Costco, because they come in big boxes. However, we can't finish all those berries in one or two days. Before we know it, the berries will turn bad, … Continue Reading ››
