#106: Deviled Eggs
When I was trying to think of appetizers that weren’t fried for this month’s set, one of the first ones I thought of was deviled eggs. The first time I had tried deviled eggs, I didn’t really like them, but thankfully I tried making them again using my own recipe and I realized just hate… Read More

#103: Bruschetta
Last year, we made a lot of fried appetizers, which, although they are very tasty, they aren’t the greatest in terms of their nutritional value. So, I thought we could spend some of this month highlighting some of my favorite appetizers for when I want a lighter option. So, for our first recipe for this… Read More
#104: Spinach Artichoke Dip
As a child, I thought that Spinach Artichoke dip was a really fancy appetizer, mainly because I didn’t really know what an artichoke was and thought it was a luxury ingredient. But in fact, spinach artichoke dip is one of the most popular appetizers throughout all of the US, with many restaurants featuring a dip… Read More
#156: Calamari
Calamari is one of my favorite things to eat when I get fried seafood. The crunchy exterior with a chewy, but tender center in a ring shape is just the best when made properly. But often when I order this appetizer at a restaurant, it’s usually lacking in some department. So, I typically pass over… Read More

#157: California Roll
I’ve been meaning to make a sushi recipe for a while now, especially after we made the onigiri recipe a few years ago, and I thought that the California Roll would be the perfect one to start with! The California Roll interestingly has a complicated origin story, with the roll’s invention being disputed, either being… Read More

Pfeffernüsse, meaning Peppernuts in German, are small spice cookies originating from Germany that are typically enjoyed during the Christmas season. The name comes, not from it containing nuts, but rather from the addition of ground pepper in the dough, giving it its distinctive peppery-spiced taste, along with each cookie being about the size of a… Read More
#168: Ramen Eggs

#142: Shrimp Cocktail
The first time I had heard about this dish was actually from the animated movie, The Incredibles, when Mr. Incredible is lavished with what I thought was a very fancy meal, but it actually turned out to be quite a cheap and easy thing to make, even from scratch. Of course, you can buy pre-made… Read More
#107: Homemade Beef Jerky
One of my favorite things to get on long road trips is beef jerky. The pure protein is a great way to stay energized and satiated on long drives without the sugar crash from other popular convenience store snacks. But, with the high salt content, you might be taking a bit more pit stops than… Read More
