Well it is now the end of term, which is so crazy for me to believe. Even though my cooking recipe blog posts may stop here I will be continuing to grow my culinary skills. I look forward to trying this recipes again and using new technology to advance my cooking skills. The reason I chose to further my cooking skills is because I found living by myself there was no enjoyment for cooking. Most of the time when I would go grocery shopping I often filled my cart with all ready made meals and cheap ramen. This project taught me that there is more to learn then just the…

Influenced by TiK Tok
When the same tik Tok keeps showing up on your for you page its only a matter of time until you are like I can do this. Well that’s what happened to me, Tanghulu kept showing up with someone taking a nice big crunch out of the fruit. I Had to try it! Tanghulu is a “traditional Chinese snack that consists of skewered fruits, typically hawthorn berries or other fruits such as strawberries, grapes, or kiwi, coated in a layer of hard, translucent sugar. The sugar coating gives tanghulu a shiny, glossy appearance and a sweet, crunchy texture. Tanghulu is popular during holidays and festivals in China and is also…

Shrimply the best
My boyfriend and I are huge pasta lovers as you can tell from my previous post about Olive Garden! We like to treat ourselves regularly with comfort meals and this shrimp pasta was the perfect recipe for that. The reason we also like pasta is that it’s a quick meal to make and you can be creative with it by adding different types of vegetables or meats/fish. When I have a full day of work and school the last thing I want to do is cook an extravagant meal that takes hours to prep and cook. Even though this meal took maybe 30 mins it still feels like you are…

What do you call a pig that does karate?
My mom recently bought a lake front cabin and being by the water in the summer calls for some great bbq. I don’t know if anyone else can relate but I am a true believer that food tastes better when its cooked at the lake. To satisfy my taste buds at the lake I was on the hunt for an awesome marinade for all sorts of meat. I remember as a child when my mom would say pork chops are for supper I would react like this meme attached below: If you feel this way, I promise you won’t anymore with this pork chop marinade recipe. I got this recipe from…

Feeling Saucy
I love creamy pasta, and Italian food is always a hit in my household. It was a windy day here in Saskatchewan but is anyone really surprised about that… no really? I did not want to leave my house because I figured I would have blown away and then I wouldn’t have been able to write this blog post for you. I needed some comfort food from Olive Garden and skip the dishes is expensive so I decided it can’t be that hard. So I tempted to make the Olive Garden fettuccine Alfredo sauce recipe. I had a little error which I will explain later but other then that this…

After this meal I was a couch potato
Even though I already posted a recipe from the keg steakhouse I needed to know how they do their twice baked potato because it is just too dang delicious. I decided to try and find this recipe on Reddit. Reddit is a social news aggregation, web content rating, and discussion website. Registered members submit content to the site such as links, text posts, and images, which are then voted up or down by other members. To find meal ideas on Reddit, you can start by viewing these subreddits dedicated to food and cooking.

Got muffin bad to say about this recipe
This week we are taking a look at the basic recipe you do with old banana’s. Has anyone else put old banana’s in the freezer and tell yourself I will use this for banana bread one day… well I do all the time but instead I decided to try a banana chocolate chip muffins recipe I found on TikTok. TikTok is a popular social media app for sharing short videos, known for its music, dance, and creative content. Users can create, discover, and share videos up to 60 seconds long. The app’s algorithm personalizes content to each user’s interests, making it engaging and popular among younger audiences. The reason I decided…

Live, Laugh, Lasagna!
Howdy classmates, This week we are going to look at time-lapse videoing! Time-lapse can be found on the camera app of an IOS device at the bottom of the screen! Time-Lapse Photography is a technique in which the frequency at which film frames are captured (the frame rate) is much lower than the frequency used to view the sequence. When played at normal speed, time appears to be moving faster and thus lapsing. For example, an image of a scene may be captured at 1 frame per second but then played back at 30 frames per second; the result is an apparent 30 times speed increase. Similarly, film can also be…

Sooner or Tater I Had to Make This Recipe
With the current weather we have been experiencing in February, I wanted to take advantaged of it and BBQ. My mother gave me some home made burgers and I wanted some fries to go with my meal. I remember my Aunty in Texas always making home made fries but she did it in the oven. I am a university student who refuses to use the oven if I can because that seems like more work and more dishes to clean. So what is the next best thing? An Air fryer! The recipe for Air Fryer French Fries was very easy to follow and he made it fun. I find some recipes…

Rolling in Oats… and Chocolate Chips
This week I wanted to change up my routine. Normally I wake up, grab a protein shake and I am off to school. I was curious if I could make something that filled me up and made me feel just as good as the premier protein shakes. The recipe I made this week was Energy Oatmeal Balls which included only 4 ingredients that was already found in my house hold (big win) and did not require any cooking (bigger win). This recipe will become a daily thing that I consume and make. It was quick, easy and did not require a lot of clean up. Here is a picture of…
