How can I be sad when I have breakfast, lunch, and dinner?

Happy Valentine's Day

Unfortunately, I've been feeling under the weather for the past couple of days, and I'm taking some "sick days". I still wanted to do something a little special to celebrate Valentine's Day, so I bought my boyfriend a pepper grinder from Aldi, and I made some vegetarian shepherd's pie with a heart on it! Some of the filling ended up spilling out after baking it, but it was very tasty!

I tried to take a piece out an take a picture of that as well, but it just looked messy


Fish Tacos

Happy Chinese New Year! Today we celebrated by making tacos.

Because leftover salad mix tastes way better in a taco.

I've always thought Blue Apron was a huge waste of money. I have to pay $8+ for a meal that I need to prep and cook myself. I actually like going to the grocery store, and I don't like cutting vegetables, so why would I ever pay extra money to cut veggies?!

However, all of the Blue Apron recipes are available online for free! And they have a pretty great cookbook with useful pictures. My favorite of their recipes is Spiced Catfish Tacos with Roasted Sweet Potato and Coleslaw.

Except I use tilapia because even though I don't know how much catfish costs, I know it costs way more than tilapia.

Tacos are always delicious. I'll have another new year's post coming soon!

I don't let holidays dictate what I eat.


Hi! I like to cook, and I like to blog. This is where I dump out all my thoughts about food.
