Recipes made in my kitchen and restaurants from around the world- I’m a foodie and I don’t mind who knows it! I love cooking and learning about food, so any tips I learn are shared here.
To be frank, I rarely buy quinoa. Which, is a bit odd since every time I eat it, I enjoy it. (There is a Tabbouleh salad that I make during the summer that is delicious). In order to add quinoa to my “winter meal plan”, I thought I would try making a Thai quinoa salad….
Thanks to this week’s specials and recipe inspiration from Seasons and Suppers, the recipe of the week is… *Drumroll, please*… peppercorn pork chops! I usually make simple recipes when pork chops are the main protein. With this being said, this recipe does have more ingredients than I’m used to for pork chops. However, it is…
For the past few months, it feels like I have been craving something that I haven’t been able to put my finger on.

Yesterday, I made Crispy Chickpeas with Pork (which was delicious). While that was a successful recipe, I had other plans for how to use the pork- this tasty pork and chickpea soup by Woman’s Day. Budgeting-wise, this just goes to show how many meals you can get out of one package of ground meat! Since…
