There is this burger place called Stacked where you build your own burger/ salad/ pizza/ pasta via an ipad at the table. It’s a total novelty, but also the ingredients are legit and make for a great burger. It was at Stacked where I discovered red pepper aioli. You guys, I don’t really like bell [...]

Posted in Chicken, dressing/ sauce on April 29, 2012 | Leave a Comment »
I got the inspiration for this recipe (and most of the recipe from) Food Network Magazine: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/food-network-kitchens/falafel-crusted-chicken-with-hummus-slaw-recipe/index.html So apparently, you can buy boxed falafel mix. It’s so cool! It SMELLS just like falafel. I did a little research and apparently this is the best brand (they have it at Henry’s/ Sprouts): So the basic idea [...]
Enchiladas Verdes + Tomatillo Salsa

So I don’t remember how I stumbled upon Pati’s Mexican Table blog, but you should definitely check it out. I used her recipe for the enchiladas and the tomatillo salsa in this post. The enchiladas are kind of a PITA, but they were delicioussssss. The salsa, on the other hand was easy and I am [...]

If you didn’t already realize I love garlic, then you may not be a very good reader. So here is my newest obsession to use up the huge bag of garlic I always buy at Costco. The uses are probably endless, so let me know if you come up with any gems! What you need: [...]
Gnocchi + Shrimp with Lemon & Olive Oil
Posted in dressing/ sauce, Pasta on July 27, 2011 | 3 Comments »
This was adapted from Smitten Kitchen’s spaghetti with lemon and olive oil. I basically just stole her delicious sauce, and cooked shrimp in it, then served over some gnocchi that my mom bought me at her local Italian market. This is a pretty simple dish, with a lot of flavor. And like a lot of [...]

This is adapted from Lottie + Doof. I was inspired not only by that lovely blog, but also by the sweet, delicious and CHEAP corn that is available right now. Ahh, summer. Please do check out the photos on L+D because they are at least a thousand times better than mine. Also, way cuter bowls. [...]
Straight Grillin’

OHHI. I know it’s been a few weeks, and I have really been trying to post once a week or so. But I haven’t been cooking any new/ cool recipes lately because we got a gas grill for our tiny balcony, so I have just been a marinade queen. I thought I should at least [...]
Buffalo Chicken Sammies + Bleu Cheese Dressing
Posted in Cheap, Chicken, dressing/ sauce, Sandwich, slow cooker on May 5, 2011 | Leave a Comment »
I saw a recipe in Real Simple a few months ago for buffalo chicken sandwiches and jotted it down on my list of things to try out. I was feeling lazy and decided to take a crock pot route instead of following the RS recipe. I found this one on allrecipes.com, which I followed for [...]
