Cajun Shrimp&Sausage Pasta

Again, carb is not my favorite nutrient in food, as you could probably tell from my recipe collections, there are no bake goods or dessert recipe, because I don’t like the taste of carbs. Growing up in Asia, my mother thought that in order to make her children grow up, they should eat rice. So […]

Skillet Sausage Mac&Cheese

Another confession. I don’t really like carbs, I am from Indonesia, that is in Asia, that makes me an Asian. Out of all the years of living by myself, once I bought rice to cook, only once, and I did’t even cook it to make rice, I cooked the first and only rice I bought […]

Zucchini Rollatini

I have another recipe with zucchini, although I know the summer is about to end or finally ended. No more zucchini growing out of anyone’s ears! But this one is quite a catch, especially for you who are trying to do low carb diet or keto. I don’t have mandolin so I just use vegetable […]

Slow Cooked Pulled Pork

This recipe came to light, just because my friend had just bought a slow cooker. God, it was like something out of this world for us. It was probably the first and only cooking gadget she ever bought. Half year later she moved out of the country and now I am the rightful owner of […]

Easy One Pan Gnocchi

This is one of the recipe that takes me longer to type up (below) than actually cooking it. It is so easy, quick and so delicious. Except if you go on homemade gnocchi route. Which I have my own recipe for homemade gnocchi. I originally just want to toss some spinach to bring out more […]

Lemon Dill Chicken

Dill is a herb that I have never used nor seen while I was still living in Indonesia. To be honest, when I was in Indo, I didn’t cook much, cause I lived by myself and it was always cheaper to get food delivered or eat out rather than cooking. I mean if you cook […]

Sun Dried Tomato & Chicken Pasta

I once had a box of cherry tomatoes, that I forgot to take out and stayed in the car all day. It was hot sunny day and direct sun light goes through the car. Will those tomatoes consider as sun dried tomatoes? Ever since I live in NYC, I appreciate space so much more. I […]

Cilantro Lime Chicken

This dish literally only needs cilantro, lime and chicken. I make it fancy by adding some garlic, cumin and olive oil. But I suspect that if you really only use cilantro, lime and chicken, this dish would still turn out wonderful. Also super cheap and perfect for the budget while maintaining to be really tasty, […]

Creamy Chicken Florentine

My vegetarian roommate, who always supportive about my life choices -she said “I would not do it but if you feel strongly about eating meat, then go ahead”. I didn’t feel lectured or judged. When I was making this recipe, she was next to me cleaning her dishes -I usually cooked after her, you know […]
