Gochujang for the win last night! (I used rice & added various veggies - not at all photogenic.)

This cookbook has the types of recipes I like, bold flavors & relatively easy.

Went with my stepdaughter to the B&N sale and made out like a bandit (she already put hers away.) Now I‘m introducing her to Silence if the Lambs.

Tamra I love the tagged book! 😋 1y

Sticky chicken tonight! I will be adding 🌶️ 🌶️. 😋

Everything I‘ve made so far from this book has been easy & tasty.

Is anyone else off put by pink dinnerware? I don‘t know why, but it is unappetizing to me. Maybe reminds me of bathrooms and Pepto? 😝

MicheleinPhilly I don‘t think I‘ve ever actually seen pink plates. But it‘s a “No” from me. 1y
Tamra @MicheleinPhilly I had some pink Fiestaware I eventually donated because I just never wanted to use those items. 😟 And I‘m a big fan of Fiestaware! 1y
Balibee146 Never seen food on salmon pink plates before... Nope here too but the receipe looks fab 1y
Aims42 I‘m also on the no pink plate wagon, reminds me of bathroom tiles and then dirty grout and then there goes my appetite 😆 1y
ravenlee It always looks dingy or bubble gum/pepto, none of which is appetizing. 1y

Trust me, dinner is always on Cricket‘s mind. 😸

Yet another winner for tasty and easy meal ideas! Nearly all perfect for me.

When am I going to learn not to browse the new cookbook section at the library? When? 🤔🤔

Ruthiella I‘m gonna go out on a limb here and predict you will NEVER stop browsing the new cook book section of the library! 😂 2y
