Easter Cupcakes


I decided to make some cupcakes for the fellas over at Curry Honda. My typical favorite yellow cake with chocolate frosting. Happy Easter!

Beef Stir Fry


Tonight I was at kind of a loss while wandering through the grocery store. A package of stir fry beef caught my eye. So here you have it: teriyaki beef! I am slowly perfecting the art of making my own glazes. This was relatively inexpensive to make, AND there are enough leftovers for me to have some for lunch tomorrow.

I think we decided we liked the veggies just as much as the beef, which is quite the change!

And for dessert, Oreo pie!

Blackened Tilapia

On the menu: blackened tilapia, couscous, and veggie mix. I tried my hand at "blackened" tilapia today by first creating my own spice mixture with a little help from the internet. It included everything from paprika to onion powder. Couscous is just a stable at my house, because its delicious. The veggie mixture included onions, garlic, corn, tomatoes, and peas sauteed in a teeny bit of butter with a splash of apple cider vinegar. Best part of all: leftovers will make a great lunch tomorrow! Hooray!
