Oh my god so much sweet potato!!
september 22nd, 2013 – vegetarian chilli
september 23rd, 2013 – blue cheese yam fries and grilled steak
september 24th, 2013 – slowcooker pot roast with barley, and roasted sweet potato
This was from a Canadian Living recipe. It didn’t turn out as nice as I hoped. The beef wasn’t very moist, which is weird because usually everything comes out super tender from the slowcooker! :(
More in here…Continue reading
Scott made these sweet cupcake burgers for his work bake sale. Everyone loved them and they were the first things to sell out! That’s a brownie “beef patty” in between vanilla cupcake “buns” with icing “lettuce” and “ketchup”, with heart sprinkles cut in half “sesame seeds”!
This Crepes of Wrath focaccia turned out awesome. I really enjoyed my cheese sandwich for breakfast this morning! Making bread is kinda cool but I certainly miss my mom’s KitchenAid mixer with dough hook for sure. Especially for this one because the dough was suuuuuper sticky!
Back again with another daily dinners post. There’s a few restaurant meals in the mix but I didn’t talk about them much because I think I’ll make separate review posts later.
september 8th, 2013 – pesto pasta with sausage and peppers
september 9th, 2013 – pulled pork sandwich with green beans
september 10th, 2013 – alaska roll and spicy tuna roll from Sushi Garden
We picked up sushi before going to a movie… accidentally carried it sideways in Scott’s bag. Oops!! SUSHI SCRAMBLE! Still tasted delicious though. I think Sushi Garden is my new favourite cheapo sushi restaurant.

I like the pancake but Scott didn’t, and Scott liked the cauliflower but I didn’t. Ha.
september 21st, 2013 – chicken, crepe, steamed buns, lobster, cheesecake from Richmond Night Market
For once I actually feel like I ate enough vegetables to not worry that people will think I don’t eat enough vegetables. Ha. By the way I eat bananas, strawberries, carrots at work almost every day. Anyway this is a pretty good collection of food this time!
We’ve been buying a head of lettuce and a head of spinach and washing and cutting it up right away. It keeps well in the fridge and that plus a few more vegetables and some grilled protein makes a very nutritious and quick dinner. I’ve really been enjoying our salad dinners out on the patio the past couple weeks.
july 14th, 2013 – prawns with citrus risotto at Dark Table
Har har har. Still funny. If you missed it, you can read about our dinner at Dark Table here.
july 15th, 2013 – mango, avocado and grilled shrimp salad with peanut dressing
july 16th, 2013 – steak salad
Rare enough for you?? I accidentally spent $15 on steak that day. Oops steaks are way heavier than I expected. We ate well that night, that’s for sure!!
More pictures after the jump.Continue reading
A day late!! Oops!! I swear the past few days haven’t had 24 hours in them…
This is a pretty weird collection of food. It pretty much covers the entire time that Scott was in Australia. I always have very little motivation to cook when I’m only cooking for me. But actually doing these daily dinners post did motivate me to eat real things for dinner instead of chips, so that’s good. Prepare yourself for a lot of cheddar smokeys.
june 30th, 2013 – party leftovers: bbq chicken, sriracha hummus
july 1st, 2013 – party leftovers: cheddar smokeys, corn, sriracha hummus, garlic bread
july 2nd, 2013 – more party leftovers: 7 layer dip, chicken skewers
july 3rd, 2013 – pupusas from the latin restaurant across the street
I only realized yesterday that I was supposed to put that baggie of veggies on top of the pupusa. That probably would have made it a little less dry, oops.
More pictures after the jump… (sorry Auntie Hsi!!)Continue reading
