Panko-crusted walnut honey fish bake with sweet potato fries, pretty gosh darn delicious and quick
Occasion: Wanted something yum
Thoughts: Very quick and easy recipe. Fresh fish + honey and mustard + nuts + panko crumbs. SO GOOD. Fries come out delicious, but a little soft.
Recipe: Pulled from many recipes. Coat fish with honey, oil, mustard mix. Then coat with panko crumbs and walnut crumbs (Holly! These were the crumbs you made when you visited 
. Cut sweet potato into even strips. Then coat with oil, some paprika or chili powder and pepper. Bake fries and fish (can’t remember, lol, but I think they were at different temperatures. So bake the lower temp first then raise the heat and bake the other.)
Red Chile Chicken Enchiladas, mmm awesome flavors
Occasion: Cravings. What more can I say?
Thoughts: Used rotisserie chicken (so perfect for quick meal preparation.) Sauce was SO good. Mine came out a bit crispier than I would have liked. Will douse baking enchiladas with more sauce next time.

Spaghetti squash spaghetti, oman, so delicious and healthy!!
Occasion: I had a spaghetti squash.
Thoughts: Really amazing and good timing. By the time I was done baking the squash, my sauce was ready which was perfect! When I added the squash stringy goodness to my spaghetti sauce (seasoned sliced pork chops, fresh tomatoes, sun-dried tomatoes, red bell paper, spicy pepper, corn), it soaked up all the flavors and was SO yummy. The squash is pretty big; I got 3 servings out of the squash (and that was my serving size, which is HUGE lol).

Rice pudding, creamy goodness
Occasion: Wanted dessert. Had rice.
Thoughts: Super easy and reuse what you’ve already made with cooked rice (though I made a fresh batch, so might not taste as good with leftover rice? Not sure.) Awesome and light sweet flavors.

Toffee cheesecake, yummy combination of toffee and chocolate
Occasion: pre-Epshita’s successful reclass!
Thoughts: Was working with limited time and resources, so it was a little ghetto-ised. I think I will add more sugar and less sour cream next time. But definitely a good theoretical combo lol.
Recipe: Don’t remember!
