I'm finding every excuse to put basil in my food. I love the smell of fresh basil a lot more than the dried version. When I was thinking of what to make for dinner, I only knew that I wanted to use basil. Just like getting dressed, I usually start with an item (or in … Continue Reading ››
I've tried making almond milk a handful of times. I like the taste of homemade almond milk because I made it richer and creamier compared to the store bought ones.

I'm baaaaccckkk! Our family just came back from a two week vacation, hence the lack of new posts. Anyway, being on vacation kind of inspired me to try and make new things.

This "Asparagus Wrapped with Bacon" is very self explanatory. I'm not even sure that I can call this a recipe. It's just wrapping bunches of asparagus with bacon. You can add seasoning if you'd like, but asparagus wrapped with bacon alone will taste good by itself.
I cook everyday on weekdays. It's hard to be original when you cook that often. Sometimes, I just take the same ingredients and just make something that looks different so that my kids will not say "That again???"
My favorite thing to do with bell peppers is to stuff them. I think they're like nature's perfect … Continue Reading ››
