I’m not entirely sure what the reason behind a lack of representation regarding shrimp tacos across most restaurant menus is, but I am here to voice my opinion on the matter and assert that the general public would like to see more readily available shrimp tacos on any given restaurant menu. I hope you don’t … More Let’s make some shrimp tacos
Without upsetting too many Italians, allow me to state that I consider pizza to be one of the most versatile food creations in existence.

I have grown to appreciate sandwiches on a significantly higher level compared to when I was younger.

Now, however, I find myself wanting to … More Switch up your typical sandwiches with a some BLT Waffle Sliders

There are other types of chilli in existence, … More Let’s make White Chilli
Chicken pot pie is a comfort food for a lot of people, and understandably so; I enjoy it, and while I wouldn’t say it is my favourite or my go-to, on occasion, a chicken pot pie absolutely slaps, and I have to say Swiss Chalet’s is rather scrumptious. I went through a phase during which … More Let’s make Chicken Pot Pie Soup
Beans, for a reason unbeknownst to me, are often on the receiving end of a lot of scrutiny.

While grocery shopping a few days ago, my eyes spotted an item that I normally likely would not buy.

Each and every time I hear carbonara, I think of my dad, without fail.

I consider grilled cheese, as a meal, to equate to macaroni and cheese, as a meal, when you’re in your adult years.

Pumpkin is not something I am the biggest fan of regarding taste; I love pumpkins themselves as decoration and such, but when it comes to consuming it, I’ve never loved it.

I honestly feel as though cottage cheese is the recipient of a lot of unwarranted flack. I’m not entirely sure why, but the majority of people seem to be repulsed by the stuff and would rather stomach rancid lunchmeat. You’re quite welcome for that gnarly visual.

I may shock some people with this information, but I have never had a Crunchwrap from Taco Bell.

Whether you’re 10 or 80, mac and cheese is arguably a dish that appeals to all.

Hamburgers are one of my favourite foods to enjoy in the summertime, as they are for many people.

As much as I love dessert, I don’t know if I would be capable of consuming literal cake to start my day off.

Why not?

This might be a bizarre assertion, but as of late, I’ve really been enjoying sandwiches.

I was also … More Let’s make club sandwiches

I don’t share too many soup recipes here on my blog, and it is not because I don’t like soup.
