Vietnamese Fresh Spring Rolls

Vietnamese Fresh Spring Rolls

If you want a healthy appetizer that’s fun to make, Vietnamese fresh spring rolls are a great choice. They are on the menu of most Vietnamese restaurants and are similar to fried spring rolls, but use rice paper as the wrapper instead. Rice paper is 

Chicken Wings

Chicken Wings

I used to not like making chicken wings at home because I could never get them crispy enough for my liking. Even when I got my air fryer, the Cuisinart Air Fryer Toaster Oven, and tried air frying the wings, they just didn’t seem right. 

Carbonara

Carbonara

I think the first and only time I had carbonara before making it myself recently was when my sister and I went to Italy in the spring of 2015. It was my first time in Europe except for a 5h layover in Amsterdam in 2010.

Oven-Baked Salmon

I discovered that my oven-baked salmon is actually decent when I first brought it as my pot luck dish for my family’s Christmas dinner one year. My aunt said the salmon was really good and asked me if I had bought it from somewhere. ðŸ˜‚ I didn’t think 

Instant Pot Cream of Mushroom Soup Chicken

Instant Pot Cream of Mushroom Soup Chicken

Orzo With Chicken And Vegetables

Orzo With Chicken And Vegetables

I put “orzo” at the beginning of the name of this blog post because whenever I eat orzo, I find it is the star of the dish. Orzo might look similar to rice, but to me, it doesn’t taste anything like rice. I like the
