I made a few pizzas and a large batch of Rice Krispies treats.

My parents used to go shopping in the States and they would get Cookie Crisp, however I haven't had any in years... So I made my own!

The texture is great, it's crispy but once you put it with milk it melts in your mouth. Tastes pretty good, too!

I don't think I ever shared it, but I made tomato soup. Most tomato soup I've seen is just tomatoes, but I found one that used garlic and carrots and then pureed it all. And it was amazing. The carrots and tomatoes were from my garden. I ripped out my tomato plants and I didn't want to have a ton of tomatoes lying around so I made soup with them! Some of the tomatoes were so meaty!

I made pumpkin soup today! I usually hate cooking, but pumpkin soup is always so delicious that I actually started making it feeling excited. Sadly my feelings toward preparing food returned to normal very soon. The soup turned out great though.

I made homemade applesauce! It was actually really easy and fun to alter and add things to! I just kept it simple with apples, water, sugar, and cinnamon for my first time.

6 apples - cored, peeled and cubed
1 cup of water
4 tablespoons of sugar
Dash of cinnamon

And you just boil it on the stovetop til it gets soft and either mash or immersion blender it (what I did).

I'm very curious if I can lower the sugar level and see how it tastes. I'll try 2 tablespoons next time and see how that goes. Adding nutmeg or cloves would be nice to try too. Or go to bulk barn and splurge on cardamom.

I made chicken noodle soup in my culinary arts class today! I'm vegetarian so I didn't try any, but my group members told me it turned out really well!

Some things I made recently in my culinary class:
- confetti cookies
- apple cinnamon scones
- apple fritter muffins
- dinner rolls... so... many... dinner rolls...
- sandwich bread

Those are all I can remember, there are lots of events that we cater for in December so it's mostly been prep work these past couple of weeks.

Back with more edibles I made..

Made this very green cake for my niece a couple months ago. It was lemon cake with vanilla frosting. No idea if it tasted good or not, I didn't get to try any. But it was nice to practice piping! I wanted to do more decoration but I ran out of time

And I made the most amazing, perfect, 10/10 vanilla confetti cupcakes about a week ago.. Honestly can't believe I made them. I was skeptical about the recipe but dang, I highly recommend this vanilla cupcake recipe !! They say not to make it confetti but I added sprinkles to the batter anyway and it still worked out

Updating this!

I tried 1 tablespoon of sugar actually and it tasted perfectly fine!

Forgot to post these pancakes I made some weeks ago. Topped with plant based vanilla ice cream, can't even tell it's not "real" ice cream

Also tried a different mug cake recipe using boxed cake mix and it was a yummy disaster

Spoiler: oh no

at least the mug is cute

I spent this morning meal prepping for the week. Chorizo & kimchi egg bites for breakfasts. Minestrone soup and cheese & sundried tomato bread (still in the maker at the end) for lunches.

I made my first batch of dried black beans!

I don't have a pressure cooker so this was done old fashioned style with a pot on the stove. I rapid soaked them with hot water for 1 hour and then simmered them for 30 minutes and they were done. Way faster than I expected.

I added bay leaves and a bit of onion powder to the water and goodness they taste and smelled so good. But now I have black beans coming out my butt lololol. Should've only cooked half the bag, whoops. Gonna freeze them into portions for later meals. Meal preppin'!

Presentation isn't 10/10 but the flavour is!

Roasted sweet potatoes with rosemary infused olive oil, steamed cauliflower, and leftover pork tenderloin in a homemade gravy. The gravy consists of water, worcestershire, onion powder, garlic powder, dijon, and a lil flour to thicken.

Super delicious!!
