Looking for something to make for dinner? Or just as a side? Look no further for inspiration.
Many times I’m looking for something to make for breakfast or as a side for dinner or as a main course. I don’t necessarily know what I want to make. But I know that I want something in that general category!
This section is for when you just need a inspiration for a category of meal.
Every now and then breakfast can be a tough meal to toss together. As much as cereal is an American staple, I’m not a big fan of that much sugar in the morning. I tend to crash after eating sweets, which is the exact opposite […]
Macaroni and cheese nachos might sound like an odd combination. They might even be an odd combination. But some of the most fun foods are things that you toss together and douse with cheese! It really isn’t that far fetched, though. Both nachos and macaroni […]
I accidentally overcooked some rice and decided to just lean into it and make fried rice with bell pepper, banana pepper, bulb onion, and ginger. It’s actually not even really rice. It’s a brown rice noodle that’s sort of like orzo. Although I’m going to […]
Macaroni and cheese is one of my favorite things to make. If I’m ever having a lackadaisical day, macaroni is my go-to. It’s relatively simple to make and quick/easy once you get the hang of it. It’s also just a nostalgic childhood foods that warms […]

I’ve been taking time off of my day job to catch up on all of the things that I’ve been neglecting. Which apparently amounts to a full-time job worth of stuff! One of the things that I’ve been catching up on is putting more effort […]
Red wine caramelized onions are a classic for onion lovers and haters alike. Honestly, I don’t like onions. They’re bitter. They’re stringy. And they make me cry. Which is unfortunate because I work in the restaurant industry! People like to say that you get over […]
Vermicelli salads are one of my favorite quick and easy recipes to toss together. There’s nothing worse than a plain old salad with wilting lettuce and syrupy salad dressing. I really just dislike the idea of lettuce as an entire meal. Any time I ask […]
I’m taking a staycation and have been thinking about making something fun during it! There are plenty of things that I make regularly, but I’ve never made tamales and have always thought about trying my hand at it. It’s a time-consuming dish, especially when you’ve […]
Vermicelli salads are quick and easy to toss together. They have all of the produce you enjoy in a salad, with vermicelli instead of lettuce. I use brown rice vermicelli, so it’s gluten free and not as indulgent as pasta. It’s almost like an Asian-style […]
