My Mother-in-Law brought us two large bags full of fresh apples from her own trees. So of course I needed to try something small immediately! My SO likes apples and cinnamon, so..
Mac & Veggies
I had a few carrots and a zucchini that needed to be cooked. I also bought a pack of cute clamshell-shaped colored macaroni. It was obviously time to make a meal out of them.
Crispy Chicken Strips with Creamy Onion Sauce
Ever wondered what would happen if you breaded chicken strips and then shallow-fried them each individually? Me too! What a coincidence! Le’s find out what happened…

Carrot Bowl with Sweet Potato & Cream
Carrots are good. Butter makes everything better. Cream makes it better still. So I confess, I just wanted something really tasty and good. Don’t expect this to be healthy 😉 Continue reading “Carrot Bowl with Sweet Potato & Cream”
Garlic & Chives Buns in a Wok
I’ve wanted to try making bread on a pan for the longest time. One evening I notice we ran out of bread, so it was a perfect excuse for not wanting to heat up the over anymore and just do it on the stove (turns out, heating the oven would’ve been faster…)
Fewer Recipes in the Near Future
So, school started for children and I started a government-mandated payless “job” three times a week. So both of those will significantly cut into my “cooking time”. There won’t be new recipes each day for at least the next three months or so. I’ll try to add something at least once a week, but I can’t promise anything.

Creamy Soup
I love creamy vegetable soups. There’s sooo much variety in a single dish. Just change the veggies around a bit and vóila, you have a different meal. This time I’m just making a soup out of whatever there was left.
Orange Veggie Burgers
I wanted to try my hand at making veggie burgers. I’ve never done them before and from this I learned I need to practice a bit more. But it wasn’t a total failure, so there 🙂
Slow Cooked Chicken with Broccoli and Rice
I use my slow cooker entirely too little compared to the space it takes and how much I wanted it in the first place. I usually only use it to make “creamy soups” (I’m starting to hate that word. We truly need a translation for “sosekeitto”) and broth/stock. It was then that I noticed I had too much chicken that needed to be cooked sooner rather than later. On to chopping veggies…
