#144: Petal Blizzard Layered Salad (Pokemon Sleep)
I was trying to think of different recipes to do for this round of AniMAY and we haven’t really been playing many games recently that have a ton of food to choose from, but I’ve been playing this mobile game called Pokemon Sleep, that has been a fun way to wind down the day feeding…

#143: Pot Pie (Xenoblade Chronicles X)
Another year of AniMAY means that it’s time to create another Xenoblade recipe from scratch and with Xenoblade Chronicles X Definitive Edition releasing earlier this year, I thought that we could make something from that game! There’s actually a few recipes to choose from in this game, but I’ve been meaning to make a pot…

#141: Lomo Saltado
When I was first looking into this recipe, I was surprised to find out that its roots are more Asian than it might seem at first glance. A famous and traditional dish in Peru, Lomo Saltado actually finds its origin from the Chinese immigrants to Peru from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, who…

#138: Nopales (Cactus) a la Mexicana
Originating from the Americas like almost all cacti, nopales, or the pads of the prickly pear cactus, have been a great and important source of nutrition and have been a culinary staple from the time of the Aztecs to even now. This ingredient is such a great source of vitamins and minerals, as well as…

#137: Cioppino
When I first heard of this dish, much like our previous seafood recipe, I had thought that this was some sort of fancy European soup. But, not only is it not fancy, it’s not even European! Cioppino finds its origins in San Francisco during the 1800s, where Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese fishermen combined whatever they…

#135: Seafood Paella
This recipe is one that sounds super fancy but is actually super simple to make. When I first heard of Paella, I thought that it was some super fancy Spanish dish, but actually, it originally was a lunchtime meal for Valencian farmers, where they would gather what was available to them around the rice fields,…

#132: 1 Pot Pasta
For this recipe, I was inspired by our previous 1-pot recipe to try to come up with another recipe that requires little clean up. Especially with me being under the weather this week—if you couldn’t tell from the sound of my voice—I was really not wanting to spend too much time in the kitchen cooking…

#129: Sticky Asian Ribs
With our third round of Frugal February, I wanted to focus once again on meals that I like to make when I need to save some money and save some time as well, in terms of active cooking time as well as time spent getting new stuff from the grocery store. One of these simple…

#127: London Broil Steak w/ Roasted Vegetables
Whenever I plan my meals for the week, I always try to find a new type of food to try out. That way, I have plenty of options to choose from and don’t get bored of a certain food while still having healthy, and most importantly delicious, recipes to choose from. I’m always looking online…

#118: New England Clam Chowder
I’ve always been a fan of New England Clam Chowder ever since I was young. In fact, one of my earliest memories is of when my family and I went to a pier off the coast of California and ate some clam chowder in a bread bowl. I remember it being super cold that morning,…
