Black Forest-Shiitake Scramble

Boyfriend-😕Me- 🙂 Sadly I didn’t pick up Black Forest ham so technically this is Ham-Shiitake Scramble. I enjoyed it. I sautéed the ham and mushrooms for longer than the recipe called and I thought it brought in a great ham-y taste to the eggs. Boyfriend didn’t like the tomatoes in it and thought that was…

Caramelized Apple Cinnamon Crepes

😕 I think I’m just not a buckwheat fan. I will finish this batch of crepes though. The apples only took about 30 minutes to cook yesterday and are easy to store and reheat for the crepe recipe. I think the apples along with the small amount of Greek yogurt on top of the crepes…

Prosciutto Egg Cups

I think I’ve come to realize that I just don’t like cooked prosciutto. I enjoy prosciutto more in its natural state with some cheese and a cold glass of Prosecco. Other than that, these egg cups were super tasty. I think I would have enjoyed them more if the cup was of another food like…

Avocado-Egg Breakfast Sandwich

Eh. I love avocado toast. I just don’t like avocado with asparagus. I ended up removing the asparagus from the sandwich and wished that I hadn’t spread on mustard as directed. Can’t go wrong with avocado and eggs.

Almond and Date Smoothie

I was excited for this smoothie, but it’s not my favorite. The dates didn’t completely blend, which could be my blender’s fault, but it left large chunks of date. Not a pleasant experience if you’re a texture eater like me. I topped it with some cinnamon for funsies.

Zucchini and Tomato Frittata

Yum, yum, yum. I love frittata’s and this one was more filling than I had anticipated. Frittata’s are wonderful breakfasts for me since I don’t always have time to cook in the morning and I’m not a fan of cereal. This one includes zucchini, tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, and walnuts. I thought the walnuts were out…

Banana-Nut Smoothie

So much yum to start off the day. Honestly I would qualify this more to be a milkshake than a smoothie. There’s no ice cream involved but plenty of milk. I reduced how much milk the recipe called for since the original recipe is measured to 3 servings. But based on the nutritional information, it…

Red Pepper and Baked Egg Galettes

This has to be one of my favorite dishes that I’ve cooked in awhile. The roasted red peppers were nice and sweet. I loved the roasted onions. Also, I love the way egg yolk congeals when eggs are baked. The white gets cooked and the yolk becomes a gelatinous state halfway between liquid and solid….

Miso Shiru

Miso Soup with Tofu I really enjoyed this. I’ve made miso soup before from the instant packet and other than taking a couple extra steps, this soup was just as easy to make as opening a packet. I really loved the smell when you add miso to the warmed dashi. While I enjoyed this soup,…

Baked Potatoes/Bell Pepper Dip with Herbs

Nothing really noteworthy about the baked potatoes. The instructions called for just salt and cumin seeds. I’ve read some reviews note the translation mixup of using cumin instead of caraway seed. Either way, I enjoyed it. I went with red skin potatoes since I’m a fan of how the skin tastes. For the bell pepper…
