Sheet Pan Garlic Ginger Chicken & Broccoli
Sheet Pan Garlic Ginger Chicken & Broccoli
Sheet Pan Garlic Ginger Chicken & Broccoli – Certainly I’m type of having actually a minute with dish preparation, and no, this Sheet Frying pan Garlic Ginger Chicken recipe does not need to be dish preparation – it can simply be a fantastic sheet pan recipe. But it works truly well as dish preparation, and we’re all up in the Sugar Free January business and attempting to stay in addition to this…

Do you have any one pot recipes? I’m a beginner level cook if you can call it that and I get so stressed out by too many pots and pans and mess
I don't really cook a lot of one-pot dishes the way you might be envisioning. My only one-pot dish is macaroni and cheese, but that recipe uses an instant pot. I think of shepherd's pie as a one-pot dish but it's actually a 3-pot dish (I wash the first two dishes while it's finishing in the oven in the 3rd dish).
If you're okay with two-dish meals, then these might be helpful. About 75% of my cooking these days come from one of these resources:
One Dish Kitchen - single portion meals. Her coq au vin is my favorite. I make it with mashed potatoes.
Cooking For One - from America's Test Kitchen. The beef and broccoli is my favorite here. (I found this book at my library and tried a few recipes first before buying my own copy.) I use microwave minute rice a lot.
I'm a big fan of risotto. Cook the protein (chicken, scallop, shrimp, whatever you like) in the oven and prepare the risotto stove-top in a sauce pan or a skillet. You'll need a second pot for stock/broth, but you can also do risotto in a pressure cooker/Instant Pot to cut down on the dishes.
I also like to do sheet pan dinners, where I roast a protein and veggies on the same baking sheet and then make a sauce stove-top while that's in the oven. I usually do salmon and broccoli with a lemon garlic sauce or chicken, asparagus, and potatoes with a butter sauce.
And it's not a sheet pan dinner, it's a skillet dinner but I love doing a porkchop in a skillet and when the meat is resting, sauteeing veggies in the same skillet with some additional butter or olive oil.
(My recipes for risotto, lemon garlic sauce, and butter sauce were from the internet but I've had them for so long that I can't find them online anymore. If you're interested, I'm happy to write them up and share! I think they're pretty easy - I found them when I was a beginner cook myself, having just moved out on my own 10 years ago.)
I was just gifted Compact Cooking and while I haven't cooked from it yet, all the recipes look good and manageable for a novice who doesn't want a lot of mess! You can find a lot of her recipes on Instagram and TikTok if you don't want to buy the book just yet.

Are you looking for great healthy snacks? A good rule of thumb is that a "snack" is typically mid morning and mid afternoon. I eat about every 2-3 hours- shake, meal, Shake- with snacking in between.
The size of your snack matters, especially if you're wanting to release pounds and inches. Typically a snack is about 5-10 bites of something or a cup measured out.
Enjoy!
Homemade nut mix Combine ALL RAW- walnuts, almonds, cashews, pecans pepitas, sunflower seeds, carob chips and dried chopped Plum Amazins.
Tamari-seasoned rice crackers are a salt lover's vehicle for tuna salad. We like to punch it up with a squeeze of Sriracha chili sauce!
Mound chopped smoked salmon onto lettuce leaf and top with dill.
Sprinkle drained canned artichoke hearts with lemon zest, capers, chopped fresh basil and olive oil. Eat with toothpicks.
Stuffed Mushrooms: Briefly roast button mushroom caps until softened. Fill with jarred pesto and a little chopped turkey.
Smoked Turkey Pinwheels: Spread a layer of hummus on sliced smoked turkey breast and top with thinly sliced tomato. Roll up and cut into 1-inch pieces.
Spruce up a shot of tomato juice by topping it with finely chopped cooked shrimp, scallions and crumbled saltines.
Whisk together almond butter, tamari and a few drops of water. Use as an Asian-style dip for baby bok choy.
Five-Spice Pumpkin Seeds: Toss salted pumpkin seeds (also known as pepitas) with sesame oil and Chinese five-spice powder, then bake at 160° until crisp.
10. Turn cucumber slices into crackers: Spread them with olive tapenade and garnish with chopped fresh tarragon.
11. Dunk root veggie chips (such as Terra chips) into low-fat sour cream seasoned with hot sauce and orange zest.
12. Ants on a Log: Stuff celery sticks with cashew butter and dot with dried currants.
13. Mix crisp and spicy jarred corn relish with chopped tomatoes and cilantro; eat with rice crackers.
14. Stuff iceberg lettuce leaves with chopped ripe tomatoes and cucumbers and a dollop of hummus.
15. Dip sugar snap peas in a mixture of Greek yogurt and a bit of jarred pesto.
16. Chickpea Poppers: Thoroughly dry canned chickpeas. Spritz with extra-virgin olive oil, season with dried oregano and garlic salt and roast at 400° until crisp.
17. Spread granny smith apple wedges with chunky cashew butter and top with toasted sesame seeds.
18. Fill endive spears with chopped Bosc pears and season with balsamic vinegar.
19. No-Chop Gazpacho: Combine tomato juice, cucumber, bell peppers and onion in a mini chopper, and then pulse just until chunky. Add a splash of red wine vinegar.
20. Cut jicama into sticks, squeeze liberally with lime juice and dip in a sauce of chunky almond butter, honey and fresh ginger.
21. Combine finely chopped broccoli, multicolored bell peppers and scallions with Greek yogurt and a dash of prepared horseradish. Keep a bag of baby carrots close by.
22. 1-2-3 Thai Slaw: Open a bag of shredded carrots; dress lightly with toasted sesame oil, lime juice, olive oil, honey and a dash of cayenne pepper. Toss in chopped salted peanuts.
23. Shred iceberg lettuce into tuna salad and eat on thick-cut organic or homemade bread-and-butter pickles.
24. Deviled Eggs: Replace mayo with Greek yogurt to make deviled eggs. Fold a handful of finely chopped watercress and a pinch of Old Bay seasoning into the yolks.
25. Stuffed Figs: Split plump dried figs and stuff with toasted hazelnuts.
26. Halve a cup of cherry tomatoes and drizzle them with olive oil.
27. Sneak some finely chopped swiss chard into your pesto, and then spoon onto garlic pita chips.
28. Indian-Spiced Cashews: Toss raw cashews in coconut oil and curry powder and roast at 160° until golden.
29. Sushi Stick: Roll up sliced avocado, cucumber spears and brown rice in a nori sheet and eat with pickled ginger.
30. Fruit Compote: Choose 1 cup of- either blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, apple. Mix 1 cup of fruit with olive oil, cinnamon and a touch of stevia if desired and pan-fry until they're on the brink of bursting, then gobble up while warm.

MISC MEAL RECS FOR @queenlua
Parameters: nothing elaborate/time-consuming; must fridge/freeze/reheat well; multiple meals; ingredients last longer than the average raspberry; little bread; no soft cheeses/cream
VEGGIES THAT LAST A LIL BIT LONGER: 
Cauliflower
Zucchini or yellow squash
Potatoes
Sweet potatoes 
Broccoli
Brussels sprouts
EASY PROTEINS: 
Crispy chicken thighs: dry 6-8 boneless skinless thighs and rub with olive oil, then toss with (2 tsps each: salt, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, + 1 tsp each: ground pepper, paprika), bake 40 mins @400 or until temp inside reaches 165 for safety stuff. **Psst: Nothing is stopping you from putting brussels sprouts, zucchini, cauliflower, or wedged onions on the same baking sheet.
Dijon baked salmon: mix (1/4 C each: fresh chopped parsley, dijon, + 1 tbs each: lemon juice, olive oil, + 3 cloves minced garlic), spread over salmon, bake 18-20 mins @ 375.
Korean ground beef skillet: Brown and drain ground beef, then clear a space in the pan to stir-fry 3 cloves minced garlic for 30 seconds before mixing in. (You can add chopped mushrooms and/or a drained can of water chestnuts at this point too, if you like those.) Whisk together (1/4 C each: brown sugar, soy sauce, + 2 tsp sesame oil, + pinch each: ginger, red pepper flakes) and pour over ground beef and simmer, seasoning to taste. Toss in sliced green onions and sesame seeds at the end. Can go over rice, noodles, or in lettuce cups.
EASY SOUPS:
Black bean soup: In a large soup pot, brown a diced onion in a splash of oil. Add in some minced garlic + 2-4 tsp cumin and stir 1 minute, then add 2 cans black beans (not drained), 1.5 C water, and bring to a simmer. Cook 15-20 mins until thickened, seasoning to taste. **This one literally makes as much soup as you want it to (more beans! more water!), all pantry staples, and you can add whatever you want to it - cilantro, browned sliced kielbasa sausage, avocado, tortilla chips, etc.
Italian sausage soup: In a large pot or wok, brown and drain Italian pork sausage. Add in: 1 C matchstick carrots, 1 peeled cubed potato, 1-2 cloves minced garlic, 1 can drained chickpeas, 1 tsp Italian seasoning, 1 bay leaf, 4C water, 3 cubes beef bouillon. Cover and simmer 1-1.5 hr, then discard bay leaf, add in 1 sliced zucchini and 1 head of shredded kale and cook 30 mins more. **If you can bring yourself to eat bread this is a great soup for dipping crusty bread in 
Sweet potato & peanut soup (bear with me): In a large soup pot, brown a diced onion in a splash of oil. Stir in (1 tbs each: minced garlic, minced ginger, red curry paste) then 1.5 C water and sweet potatoes (peeled & cubed.) Bring to a boil then simmer on medium-low 15 mins. If you have a blender you can puree it at this point but  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯. Stir in 1/2 C coconut milk and 1 can drained cannelini beans. Top with roasted peanuts, lime juice, cilantro, etc.
MISC EASY MEALS:
Skillet kielbasa: Boil cubed potatoes until soft, then drain. Meanwhile, in a large skillet brown chopped onions in butter, then add sliced beef kielbasa sausage and brown that too. When the potatoes are done add them in as well until everything is seared and buttery and spicy. **Family preferred side dish was applesauce.
Sheet pan deconstructed chicken fajitas: Toss cubed chicken, onion, and bell peppers with 1 tbs oil and spices: (2 tsp each:  chili, cumin, + 1/2 tsp each: salt, paprika, pepper). Roast on baking sheet 15-20 mins @425. Meanwhile toss 4 C chopped kale with 1 tbs oil & pinch of salt. Spread kale and 1 can drained black beans over chicken mix and roast 5-7 minutes more. Eat over brown rice or in tortillas with your preferred sour cream/cheese/cilantro/whatever.
Sundried tomato pasta: Cook bowtie pasta and set aside. In lidded pan, brown spinach+feta sausages, 1 tbs sundried tomato pasta, and 2 cloves minced garlic. Add in 4 C chopped mushrooms, 3 oz jarred sundried tomatoes, and 1 C black olives, cover, and simmer 5-10 mins. Toss in noodles and a few handfuls of spinach and cook until wilted.
Mediterranean ravioli: Cook packaged spinach ravioli per package, drain, and toss with 1 tbs oil from jarred sundried tomatoes. Heat another tbs of that oil in a skillet and saute 1 can drained artichoke hearts, 1 can drained cannelini beans until heated through. Fold into ravioli with 1/4 C kalamata olives, fresh basil, pine nuts.
Cauliflower tacos:  Chop cauliflower, toss with olive oil/melted butter/salt/pepper/paprika/garlic, roast for 1 hr @400, then put in a tortilla with sliced red bell pepper, salsa, cheese of choice.
**Black bean goat cheese quesadillas if you don't want to share with your partner: Mix together: 1 can drained black beans + 1 can drained whole kernel sweet corn + 1 tub goat cheese + handful of diced tomatoes + 1 diced bell pepper + 1/2 diced red onion + cilantro + green onion + whatever else you want, spread into tortilla and quesadillify it
EASY SALADS THAT DON'T GO BAD INSTANTLY:
Kale apple salad: Bagged chopped kale lasts about 2-3 weeks. You can shake up a (non-perishable!) dressing of apple cider vinegar, lime or lemon juice, salt, pepper, and olive oil, then massage into a few handfuls of kale and toss with thin-sliced apples and other toppings of choice (craisins, walnuts, almonds, goat cheese, etc.)
@wavelette’s farro salad: Cook farro per package directions in salted water, then toss in 1/4 C diced red onion, a few handfuls of halved cherry tomatoes, fresh mint leaves, and olive oil, salt, and pepper to taste. **I know it's mostly grain but it counts as a salad)

21 Delicious and Healthy Keto Snacks
Many popular snack foods have too many carbs to easily fit into a keto diet plan. This can be particularly frustrating when you’re trying to ward off that between-meal hunger.
If you’ve found yourself in this nutritional predicament, don’t worry.
There are many low-carb snack options that are just as healthy as they are delicious.
This article outlines 21 keto-friendly snacks to include in your next meal plan.
1. Mini frittatas
Tumblr media
Mini frittatas, or egg muffins, are a great keto-friendly snack that’s easy to prepare and fully customizable.
All you need to get started is:
a dozen eggs
standard 12-cup muffin pan
mixing bowl
an oven
To begin, beat the eggs in a bowl and season with a little salt and pepper.
Distribute the egg mixture evenly between each muffin cup and add your preferred low-carb ingredients like:
spinach
mushrooms
tomatoes
cheese
Bake at 350°F (180°C) for about 15–20 minutes, or until set.
Exact nutrition information varies depending on what you add to your recipe. One frittata (170 grams) may provide up to 320 calories, 14 grams of protein, and 21 grams of fat.
Store them in the refrigerator so you can easily grab a couple on your way out, or bake a few batches and freeze them for later.
2. Caprese salad skewers
Tumblr media
Caprese salad is a classic Italian favorite. When you assemble the ingredients on skewers, it turns into a great portable snack.
Preparing it is as easy as alternating pieces of fresh mozzarella cheese, basil leaves, and cherry tomatoes onto skewers. Eat it plain or mix a little balsamic vinegar and olive oil for dipping.
A 3.5-ounce serving (100 grams) of Caprese salad may provide about 139 calories, 7 grams of protein, and 11 grams of fat — not including dipping sauce.
3. Caesar salad bites
Tumblr media
If you’re a fan of Caesar salad, you’ll love these mini Caesar salad bites. You can use romaine lettuce if you want to keep it classic, but a heartier type of green like kale holds up better if you’re not planning to eat them right away.
Make individual cups to hold the salad by heating tablespoon-sized portions of grated Parmesan cheese on a parchment-lined baking pan. Bake until the cheese has melted and is starting to brown.
Let the melted cheese portions cool slightly before placing each over the bottom side of a mini muffin pan, lightly pressing the cheese into the shape of the muffin cups. Let them cool completely, and they’ll turn into small, edible, crispy cups.
Toss the greens with your favorite dressing and portion into each Parmesan cup. In lieu of croutons, top with roasted pumpkin seeds or pistachios for extra crunch. For more protein, add chopped chicken or smoked salmon.
4. Cajun style shrimp and bell pepper kebabs
Tumblr media
Shrimp are a great source of heart-healthy omega-3 fats. They’re also lower in mercury than other types of seafood, making them a healthy and keto-friendly snack option.
First, use a Cajun style dry rub on the shrimp. Place the seasoned shrimp on skewers, alternating with thick slices of fresh bell pepper.
Bake or grill the kebabs until the shrimp is fully cooked and the peppers are between crisp and tender. Serve right away, or store in the refrigerator until you’re ready to eat.
5. Veggie sticks with nut butter
Tumblr media
Pairing fresh or lightly cooked vegetables with your favorite nut butter is one of the simplest, nutrient rich snacks you can make.
Nuts are loaded with heart healthy fats. Research suggests that regularly eating nuts may support blood sugar management and weight loss.
A 2-tablespoon (32-gram) serving of peanut butter, without added oil, typically packs around 16 grams of fat. Dip raw carrots and celery in almond butter or try lightly steamed or grilled broccoli drizzled with peanut butter.
If you’re not making your own nut butter, be sure to check the label of the type you purchase, as some recipes contain added sugar. The best and healthiest nut butters only require one ingredient — nuts.
6. Salmon salad celery boats
Tumblr media
Salmon is not only a good source of omega-3 fats and protein but also vitamin D, a nutrient many people don’t get enough of .
A 3.5-ounce (100-gram) serving of canned salmon provides over half of the daily value (DV) for vitamin D, and it can quickly be made into a salad that suits a keto diet .
Combine cooked salmon and mayonnaise to make a simple, keto-friendly salad. You can customize the recipe by adding fresh herbs, spices, garlic, or lemon.
Serve the salmon salad stuffed into fresh celery stalks for an extra nutrient boost and satisfying crunch.
7. Keto sushi rolls
Tumblr media
Keto sushi rolls are excellent nutrient rich snacks that come together in as little as 15 minutes. All you need is a pack of nori seaweed sheets and some uniformly chopped veggies and fish to use for filling.
You can use raw, sushi grade fish, but it’s not necessary. Smoked fish or no fish at all — plus lots of veggies like avocado, bell pepper, and cucumber — will work just as well.
To boost the fat content, you can add cream cheese or serve it with a spicy peanut sauce — just make sure it doesn’t contain added sweetener.
To assemble the sushi, simply lay out the nori and dampen the edges with a little water. Lay your filling on the nori sheet and roll it tightly. Slice it into bite sized pieces or eat it like a wrap.
8. Collard green sandwich wraps
Tumblr media
Collard greens are loaded with essential nutrients, including:
folate
calcium
vitamins K, C, and A
What’s more, their large, hearty leaves lend themselves well to a low carb sandwich wrap.
After trimming the stems, place the collards in a pot of simmering water for 20 to 30 seconds. Remove them from the pot and place immediately into a bowl of ice water for a few seconds. Pat them dry with a clean towel and begin making your sandwich wraps.
Fill your wraps with items like:
fresh herbs
avocado
chicken salad
tuna salad
sliced turkey
roasted veggies
cream cheese
9. Avocado egg salad
Tumblr media
Avocados are loaded with:
heart-healthy fats
fiber
vitamins
minerals
anti-inflammatory compounds
Some research even suggests they may promote healthy aging.
Using avocado as a substitute for mayonnaise in traditional egg salad is a great way to boost the nutritional content of this classic dish while still keeping your snack keto-compatible.
Combine a few diced, hardboiled eggs, mashed avocado, minced red onion, and a bit of salt and pepper.
Serve with:
lettuce wraps
celery sticks
thick slices of cucumber and radish
10. Veggie sticks with guacamole
Tumblr media
Guacamole makes a great, portable, and healthy keto snack, as avocados are loaded with fat, fiber, and a hefty dose of essential nutrients. In fact, avocados provide 15 grams of fat and 24% of the DV of fiber per 3.5-cup (100-gram) serving.
To make guacamole, simply mash a ripe avocado and combine with lime juice, diced red onion, and salt and pepper. Fresh jalapeño makes an excellent addition, too.
If you’re not up for making your own, you can buy pre-made and individually packaged guacamole. Although guacamole is good to eat by itself, you can also use sweet bell peppers, red radishes, celery, or broccoli for dipping.
11. Bone broth
Tumblr media
If you crave something light and warming, bone broth makes a perhaps unexpected but tasty snack option for keto dieters.
Unlike traditional broth, bone broths are cooked longer and typically contain more protein. Some commercially prepared bone broths boast up to 10 grams of protein per cup (240 mL).
Bone broths don’t typically provide much fat, but you can easily augment this by adding coconut oil, butter, or ghee.
You can make your own bone broth on the stove top or with a slow cooker or pressure cooker. Make a big batch and freeze it in individual servings that are easy to heat up when you crave a warm, comforting snack.
If you opt for a commercially prepared brand, be sure to check the ingredient label, as some of them harbor added sweeteners and are high in sodium.
12. Keto smoothies
Tumblr media
If you follow a keto diet and thought smoothies would be forever off limits due to their typically high carb content, you’re in luck.
You can make keto-friendly smoothies using coconut, avocado, and nut butter as a base to boost fat content and provide a creamy texture.
Small amounts of low carb fruits, such as berries, lime, or lemon, may be used in a keto smoothie, but you should also include nutrient dense veggies like spinach, cucumber, kale, or jicama.
Other flavorful additions are:
cacao
cinnamon
vanilla extract
flavored protein powders
If you’re looking for something sweet, you can add a keto-approved sweetener like stevia or monk fruit.
13. Mixed nuts
Tumblr media
Nuts are full of protein, fat, fiber, and plant compounds that offer a variety of health benefits. In fact, some research associates a higher intake of nuts with a reduced risk of heart disease and cancer-related death.
Just 1/4 cup (28 grams) of mixed nuts provides approximately 15 grams of fat, 6 grams of protein, and 2 grams of fiber .
You can buy pre-packaged mixed nuts or build your own mix using your favorites. If you go for the pre-made option, be sure to check the label for any added ingredients that don’t fit into your diet plan.
Almonds, cashews, Brazil nuts, pistachios, walnuts, and pecans are good options for your own keto-friendly trail mix.
Other nutritious additions are:
sunflower seeds
hemp hearts
cacao nibs
coconut
14. Fermented vegetables
Tumblr media
Fermented vegetables like pickles are a great keto snack option.
Research suggests that eating fermented foods that contain beneficial bacteria may promote healthy digestive function and reduce your risk of diabetes and heart disease.
Fermented vegetables can be purchased or made at home.
You can ferment almost any type of vegetable, including:
cabbage
cucumbers
carrots
cauliflower
beets
green beans
For added fat, pair your fermented veggie snack with herbed full-fat crème fraiche.
It’s important to note that pasteurized pickles or those made with vinegar don’t provide any live probiotics. This applies to most, if not all, commercially sold pickles.
15. Olives
Tumblr media
Olives have long been praised for their rich supply of heart healthy fats, which is just one reason why they make a great keto snack.
Olives also contain vitamin E, fiber, and other health promoting plant compounds that may reduce inflammation and prevent chronic diseases like osteoporosis.
A 3.5-ounce (100-gram) serving of olives provides roughly 145 calories, 15 grams of fat, and 4 grams of carbs — almost all of which come from fiber .
You can enjoy them plain or stuff them with feta or gorgonzola cheese to add some extra fat.
16. Fat bombs
Tumblr media
“Fat bomb” is a term people on the keto diet coined to describe low carb, dessert-style energy bites that satisfy your sweet tooth.
Fat bombs are often made using coconut oil, nut butter, avocado, or cream cheese as the base. Other ingredients are added to create delicious flavor profiles.
Dark chocolate and peanut butter is a popular combination, but the possibilities are limitless.
You can purchase these delicious, portable snacks or make them at home.
17. Buffalo cauliflower bites
Tumblr media
Try a healthy, vegetarian twist on classic buffalo wings by swapping the chicken for fiber rich cauliflower.
In addition to fiber, cauliflower contains vitamin C and other antioxidants that may reduce inflammation and boost your health.
To make these tasty “wings,” toss chopped cauliflower with your favorite buffalo sauce and melted butter. Roast in the oven for 20–25 minutes or use an air fryer.
Serve with carrot sticks and a side of ranch or blue cheese dressing.
18. Flax crackers with cheese
Tumblr media
For many keto dieters, crackers are usually off the menu — but they don’t have to be. Ground flax seeds are loaded with fiber and omega-3 fats, and they make a great base for keto-friendly crackers .
Pair the crackers with sliced cheese, and you’ve got a healthy and delicious keto snack that requires very little preparation.
You can make flax crackers yourself or skip the baking process and buy a bag instead.
19. Coconut yogurt
Tumblr media
Yogurt is a great source of probiotics, which may support healthy digestive function .
Coconut yogurt has been making waves as a popular dairy-free alternative to traditional yogurt, and some types are also suitable for a ketogenic diet.
20. Stuffed mushrooms
Tumblr media
Mushrooms are low in carbs and provide important nutrients, including selenium, potassium, vitamin D, and several B vitamins .
For a tasty keto snack, try stuffing button mushroom caps with herbed cream cheese or ground sausage.
For a different twist, turn portobello mushroom caps into mini Margherita pizzas by stuffing them with tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, and fresh basil before baking until tender and golden.
21. Meatball sliders
Tumblr media
Traditional meatball sandwiches are high in carbs because of the bun. However, you can replace the bun with lettuce to make keto meatball sliders.
Mix your favorite ground meat with eggs, garlic, herbs, and Parmesan cheese, shape into balls, and bake. These keto-friendly meatballs can be eaten right away or frozen for later.
When you’re ready to dig in, place the meatballs in the lettuce “buns” for a high protein, low carb snack. For an extra dose of fat, serve them with a tomato-garlic aioli for dipping.

Homecookings [March ed.]
How was everyone’s March 2020??!
Here’s mine: Started off the month with staycation, which I didn’t get a lot done (nowhere close to what I had planned) but at the same time, I got quite a lot done. I’m referring to a newly self-taught skill, which is ink painting. I busted out my ink block FINALLY. Those ones where you gotta swirl & melt it in a water reservoir. It’s super old-school & it’s how oriental ink painting is supposed to be done (the liquid ink bottles are modern-style). The ink block has been around for so long; & for the longest time, I didn’t want to start using it bcos I didn’t wanna ruin it lol I wanted to “save” it. But you know what? LET’S GET IT!!!! Every day, I worked on a painting, & I actually ended up with 10 in total. It wasn’t as hard as I thought; I tried different styles, & after 10, I think I have a good grasp of the technique!
Tumblr media
^ Just sharing one :)
I rarely talk about current events on this blog bcos it’s a place for me to document my food adventures as well as travel-related (but mostly food-related) topics, with the rare appearance of Kpop/Kdrama talk. But things have been CRAZY in Alberta! With the COVID-19 ‘formally’ entering the province early March, & ppl hoarding things, to school closures & online classes.. . now semi-lockdown, where only essential service is open, etc.. . The province has, is, & will be going through a lot of changes, as a whole.
To say the ‘official entry’ hasn’t impacted me/my life at all is a lie, however, the impact has been very minimal. Since starting mid-March, there has been daily updates regarding the cases by our Chief Medical Officer of Health, Dr. Hinshaw. *My personal view only* Everyone’s situation is different, & I fortunately, am able to keep my lifestyle pretty much the same at this point. I’m a pretty big home-body to begin with, & as much as I love seeing my friends, I don’t see them that often anyway due to shift work *shrugs* so in terms of the practice of social distancing to my social life, in all honesty, not much impact. 
Well, what about my work?! Am I sent home to work???! No. Don’t wanna go into too much detail here, but I will share a little. As a medical laboratory technologist, PPE at work + hand-washing practice is “normal”, as in, there’s nothing to change about it. I may wash my hands more, but ppl that hang out with me know I sanitize/wash hands often anyway so. .. I’m still going to work as a regular full time, doing the things I do; we are an essential service & we gotta be open no matter what! The company has adopted some recommended guidelines put forth by Public Health, such as, “sick leaves” (+ follow up) have now expanded in definition, & staff gets mandatory temperature check at the entrance before we enter the facility. The biggest change at work has been the change in work volume - we are so used to busy, busy, busyyy & now it’s like “let me pick up the next phone call pls!”
Anyway, didn’t mean to start off with such a loooooong update ... Let’s start the real deal: homecookings this month!
Tumblr media
Hmmm .. . what do you think I did with this?
Tumblr media
^ KitKat-covered wafer rolls. I find milk chocolate reallllyyyy sweet so I melted some tiramisu KitKat with some brewed coffee (1. to de-sweeten, & 2. to make the mixture more runny). I crushed majority of the KitKat but I aimed to keep some wafers as large-ish pieces to fulfill texture-building. Then I poured the mixture on top, let cool, then cut into individual pieces.
Tumblr media
^ I then up’ed my game, & nearly tripled the amount of coffee that I used the 1st time. The resulting melted KitKat + coffee mixture was very bitter - just the way I liked it. I didn’t use as much wafer rolls this time bcos I couldn’t; that’s all I had left in the house. But I had some chocolate mix left; thus I just scooped some over Oreo thins.
PS: Oreo thins wins!
PPS: For both experiments, I used half of the large KitKat bar! mmm.. coffee amount was pretty much YOLO-’d.
Tumblr media
^ Kimchi + chicken mini tacos. Stir-fried up some chicken breast & cut up kimchi, & scooped on top of soft corn flour + wheat tortilla tacos. Added some mozza shreds & green onion after.
Tumblr media
^ Another fusion soft taco, consisting of Costco fries & basa fish fillet that’s been cooked in pasta sauce. Decided to add some bacon ranch dressing as well. This was surprisingly a success! I’m not a huuuuge fan of fish, in general. I’ve never tried basa with tomato + herb pasta sauce. I was gonna eat the basa on its own like that, but then I thought, let’s fish taco-it! Got a nice crunch & softness of the basa in 1 bite :D
Tumblr media
^ Beef + cabbage with flat rice vermicelli noodles. This is like my home-made bun bo hue but with a looooooot of cabbage bcos I love cabbage! I used the canned pho soup (diluted it with water), some fish sauce, & fire chicken sauce! Doesn’t look like much, but it was spicy!
Tumblr media
^ baked salmon - used coarse sea salt, fresh ground black pepper, furikake, & white truffle olive oil. YUM!
Tumblr media
^ another baked salmon. I know this probably sounds stupid, but I’m 100% transparent about it haha I have a foil sheet on my toaster oven tray, & I’m not a fan of changing it out every single time, so I’ve come to a consensus with myself that I’ll bake, but use some other dish as a vessel, instead of “baking” on a tray or pan. The last salmon, I used a white dish - it was SO hard to wash afterwards. So this time, I used one of these stainless steel dishes my mom has (& uses for steaming). It was less of a mess!
Anyway, what flavour is the salmon here? Salt, fresh ground pepper, garlic, & honey!
Tumblr media
^ cheese tortellini with pan-seared chicken breast. I made the sauce using: milk, butter, salt, dried parsley, & 2 slices of Kraft mozza singles. Topped with more dried parsley & fresh ground black pepper. (Don’t worry! I had steamed broccoli on the side for my “greens” portion.)
Tumblr media
^ Vegetarian bibimbap. The fried tofu was store-bought, but I cooked it in Korean soy sauce + sugar, so kind of like braised tofu. Mixed salad greens at the bottom, then rice, then the tofu; lastly, some sesame seeds + bibimbap paste.
Tumblr media
^ Ramyeon with mixed greens + chicken breast. Gotta keep it healthy! haha you might find that this is weird - to put salad greens in soup. But let me tell you, use a small amount & try this the next time you buy these veggies. Like just try! If it fails & you don’t like it, you won’t waste too much of it. When you pour soup over it, the greens start to “cook” & decrease in size significantly. With these salad greens, this ‘sorta cooked but not cooked’ texture is another way I personally enjoy them.
Tumblr media
A glass of milk.. . the base for dalgona “hot chocolate”. Do you think it worked or not?
I used 2 tbsp hot chocolate powder with 1.5 tbsp sugar & also 1.5 tbsp of warm water. I manually whisked for a loooooong time, but it didn’t really froth. It became more dense if anything. But anyhow, I ended up with a somewhat heavy product, but was able to *feel* there was some air in it. I went for it.. . scooped it on top of the milk.. . And.....
Tumblr media
This happened! It did not build up on top, but settled nicely at the bottom lol. You try with hot chocolate powder & let me know if it worked for you or not! :P
Tumblr media
^ Post-night shift brunch =] I try to eat somewhat cleaner when I’m on nights by doing less meat compared to my usual diet. I don’t know what it is. .. I just crave more vegetables + non-meats. So I made braised tofu (just soy sauce & sugar) & cabbage soup (seasoned with gochujang & salt, so it’s a little spicy). It looks really red but it’s actually very mild.
All in all, pls stay home if you can during this time. If the sacrifice isn’t done now, the result will be much more devastating later down the road.
Talk to you later~

Easy Meals I Make at Home in Under 30 Minutes
Last week a reader asked if I would put together another post about meals I make at home in under 30 minutes. So I looked back at when I wrote my last one and it was all the way back in July. Crazy how fast time goes by. So today I’m bringing it back with 12 meals I recently made at home that will hopefully give you some inspiration for easy meals for yourself and your family. Remember, this meals aren’t pretty, whatsoever. And some aren’t strict paleo. If you’re new here, I don’t eat strict paleo. I eat white rice and some gluten free items. If you don’t want that in your own diet, don’t eat it. Simple as that. And if you need even more inspiration, you can look back at my previous easy meals posts here, here and here!
Just a recap (I shared this in my previous posts) – with a little planning, multitasking and with the help of some special ingredients, there’s really NO EXCUSE to not eat a healthy meal on the table in no time flat. It’s really freaking easy, I promise you that. Stop making excuses for why you can’t get a healthy meal on the table certain nights. It just means you need to plan ahead. Maybe you even need to write out your meals to make sure nothing goes to waste and you’re sticking with your goals.
You’ll see many repeats in my own diet because I stick with foods that make me feel my best and that cook up quickly. Plus, I use whatever ingredients I have on hand in my freezer. So let’s get to it. Here’s a little breakdown of what I always have at home and/or purchase week to week:
ButcherBox – Every month I get my monthly supply of grass-fed, grass-finished, antibiotic and hormone-free, pasture-raised beef, chicken and pork. This way I always have meat on hand that I can pull out of the freezer the day beforehand to make for meals the next day. And since it’s delivered to my doorstep, I don’t have to think about it, which is the best part. In every box, I always get burgers and breakfast sausage, then whatever other meat is available that month!
Thrive Market – I try to get a Thrive Market box delivered to my doorstep every month or so. I love stocking up on coconut wraps, coconut aminos, Siete Foods sea salt grain free tortilla chips, and organic extra virgin olive oil. Be sure to follow me on instagram and my instagram stories/highlights because every time I get an order, I share those finds and goodies on my social media! Thrive also offer seafood now and it’s delicious so I will sometimes grab that from them.
Whole Foods or Natural Grocers or Trader Joe’s –
Freezer section – I always like to purchase cauliflower rice, sliced bell peppers, asparagus, cauliflower and kale so if I’m in a pinch and have no fresh produce around, I can quickly defrost any of these vegetable and whip up a meal quickly. I also recently picked up Trader Joe’s cauliflower gnocchi and love having that on hand.
Produce section – I almost always purchase arugula, kale, carrots, cherry tomatoes, ripe plantains, yukon gold potatoes, sweet baby peppers, butter lettuce, honey crisp apples, cilantro, green onions and whatever other vegetable looks good.
Pre-cut veggies – At Whole Foods (and many other grocery stores nowadays), they have pre-cut vegetables that have made a huge difference when it comes to how long it takes to make a meal. It costs a little more, but to me it’s worth it because it keeps me eating healthy. I’ll always buy pre-cut butternut squash fries, brussels sprouts, kale, beets (I buy the Love Beets brand), zucchini noodles, beet noodles, and carrot fries.
Butcher section – Since I get all my meat from ButcherBox, I usually only purchase wild-caught fish and seafood at Whole Foods. We try to eat salmon, scallops, sea bass and whatever other fish looks good. And we’ve been eating more fish and seafood recently because my husband is on a strict diet where he can’t have chicken or pork, which is why most of my dinners are beef or fish/seafood. I love getting fish/seafood for the nights that we have limited time since it cooks up so quickly.
Pantry Products – I keep these items on hand because they make prep incredibly easy and quick whenever I’m in a pinch!
Primal Palate Spices
Primal Kitchen Ranch, Ketchup and Mayo
Balanced Bites Spices
Sir Kensington Ranch, Mayo, Ketchup & Mustard
Mike’s Organic Curry Paste
Rao’s Marinara Sauce
Tolerant Foods Gluten Free Pasta
Latest Freezer Favorites –
Birch Benders Paleo Waffles
Brazi Bites
Trader Joe’s Cauliflower Gnocchi
Cauliflower Rice
Bonafide Bone Broth Soup
Now on to the meals we go!
For this breakfast, I preheated to oven to 400 degrees to cook up a Birch Benders Paleo Waffle for 10 minutes. While the oven heated up, I cooked ButcherBox breakfast sausage with diced red bell peppers and oinons, then I added in leftover air fryer potatoes. Then I topped the waffle with peanut butter and maple syrup. This meal took about 20 minutes.
This dinner took about 30 minutes. First I preheated the oven to 400 degrees, tossed zig-zag butternut squash in avocado oil, topped with salt and garlic powder, then roasted them for 25-30 minutes. Then I cooked up ButcherBox burgers in a cast iron skillet topped with Primal Palate Steak Seasonings and topped it off with Primal Kitchen Ketchup and Mustard. And to finish the meal, I made an easy salad of arugula, apples, orange bell pepper, Primal Kitchen Ranch, plus salt and pepper.
This hearty soup dinner took about 30 minutes. First I preheated the oven to 400 degrees, sliced carrots and tossed them in avocado oil and salt, then roasted them for 25-30 minutes. While the carrots cooked, I cooked chopped bacon in a large pot, set it aside, then sauteed red bell peppers and onions in the rendered fat. Then I added ButcherBox ground beef and once it was broken down and cooked through, I added the Bonafide Broccoli Cheddar Bone Broth Soup along with salt, garlic powder and pepper. When the oven has 10 minutes left, I added Brazi Bites to the baking sheet with carrots. To finish the soup, I added the carrots and Brazi Bites!
When I didn’t know what to make one night, I started with air fryer potatoes which take about 25 minutes. While the potatoes cooked, I topped ButcherBox steak with Primal Palate Steak Seasonings and cooked it in a cast iron skillet until medium rare then let it rest for 5 or more minutes. When the potatoes had about 5 minutes left, I made a quick salad of arugula and apple topped with Primal Kitchen Ranch, plus salt and pepper.
This lunch took about 25 minutes. I first boiled rice until light and fluffy, about 20 minutes. While the rice was cooking, I cooked up ButcherBox ground beef with red and yellow bell peppers. Once the ground beef was browned, then I added a packet of Mike’s Organic Yellow Curry Paste with a can of coconut milk then added a bit of salt and lime juice.
For this 30 minute dinner, I preheated an oven to 400 degrees. Then I tossed diced eggplant and carrots in avocado oil and salt and cooked the veggies for 25-30 minutes. While the veggies roasted, I cooked chopped bacon in a large pot, set it aside, then sauteed onions in the rendered fat. Then I added ButcherBox ground beef and once it was broken down and cooked through, I added Bonafide Creamy Mushroom Bone Broth Soup with salt and pepper. Once the veggies were done roasting, I added the veggies. Then I ate it with leftover carrot fritters (recipe coming soon!).
For this 30 minute dinner, I preheated an oven to 400 degrees, tossed halved brussels spouts in avocado oil and salt then cooked the brussels for 30 minutes. While the brussels roasted, I cooked up Trader Joe’s Cauliflower Gnocchi using my air fryer gnocchi recipe. Then I cooked up ButcherBox ground beef with sliced kale then added tomato sauce and salt. Then I ate it all with a little artichoke pesto.
This dinner only took about 25 minutes. I cooked ButcherBox ground beef with bell peppers then added Primal Palate Taco Seasonings, hot sauce, lime juice and salt. Then I cooked up cauliflower rice in a pan with some avocado oil, added salt, garlic powder and chopped cilantro. Then when the cauliflower rice was almost done, I pushed it to the side of the pan, added more fat and added sliced plantains to the pan to cook on both sides for 4-5 minutes.
For yet another soup night dinner, I cooked up bacon in a large pot, set it aside once crispy, then I added a whole sliced onion and cooked down for about 10-15 minutes. Then I added ButcherBox ground beef and cooked until brown. Lastly I added Bonafide French Onion Bone Broth Soup and sliced mushrooms and cooked for about 5 minutes. Lastly, I added the bacon back in with salt and pepper.
This dinner took me 30 minutes. I first made a Moroccan carrot salad (no measurements but the ingredient include grated carrots, red onion, raisins, lemon juice, oil, coriander, cumin, honey, salt and pepper) then set aside for later. Then I cooked up Trader Joe’s Cauliflower Gnocchi using my air fryer gnocchi recipe. And while the gnocchi cooked, I cooked a ButcherBox ribeye in a cast iron skillet with Primal Palate Steak Seasonings until medium rare. And I served it all with artichoke pesto that I found at Natural Grocers.
This 30 minute dinner included leftover carrot fritters that were made the night before. For the rest of the dinner, I steamed frozen cauliflower then I pureed it until smooth in a high speed blender with salt and garlic powder. While the cauliflower was cooking, I cooked ButcherBox ground beef in a pan with garlic, onion and bell peppers with salt and pepper then added Primal Palate Meat & Potatoes Seasonings. Then I made a quick tomato salad with cherry tomatoes, onion, cilantro, lime juice, olive oil, salt and pepper.
Last but not least, one last curry! I first made chicken thighs using my air fryer chicken thighs recipe. While the chicken cooked, I I first boiled rice until light and fluffy, about 20 minutes. While the rice cooked. I added oil and peppers to a pan. Once the peppers were soft, I added Mike’s Organic Green Curry Paste and a can of coconut milk, lime juice and salt, and reduced down for about 10 minutes. Then I just added it all together with some cilantro!
