Recently I’ve been trying to incorporate more protein into my breakfast. After hitting the gym in the morning, I would ideally sit down for a meal of eggs and toast or a bowl of oatmeal – something with a good amount of protein and healthy carbs to help me refuel. But unfortunately, I find that…
For my birthday this year, I asked for an Instant Pot! I’ve been hearing about them for a while, but it wasn’t until my oven broke a few weeks ago that I finally gave one a shot. I decided to give my Chickpea Lentil Stew a shot in the Instant Pot, and it turned out…

I am unbelievably grateful for all the opportunities I was given and wonderful people I have had the…
Happy Easter! Honestly, the best thing about being home has been baking. Yes, I love seeing my family and catching up with old friends. And sure, not having to walk to another building to do laundry is nice too. But the thing I miss the absolute most about home is having my own kitchen! So,…
Life can get pretty crazy sometimes, and time can seem to slip through your fingers in the blink of an eye. For example, the past few weeks, I’ve been a little lax on posting because amongst preparing for college, traveling to visit two different sides of my family, attempting to fit in a few last…
The great thing about this waffle is that it isn’t good in spite of being vegan. It’s good because it’s vegan! I’ve found that recently, a lot of the waffles that I make with eggs tend to get really hard in the waffle iron before they’ve even fully cooked. Meaning that by the time a…
