Recipe: Stir Fry Noodles

You could easily add whatever you want to this but to make it as straight forward as possible all I did was add a bag of frozen “stir fry” vegetables, making this meal take all of 10 minutes to come together without bringing out any chopping board. It does take 2 pans (one to boil and one to fry in) but you could probably do it in one large sauce pot if you were really lazy.

Recipe: Stovetop Chocolate Pudding

Stovetop pudding comes together easily in a couple of minutes and can be made to look extremely fancy for an easy dinner party treat. Top with whipped cream, pieces of fruit, or shaved chocolate for maximum effect or simply eat it right out of the bowl. Also you can sieve all the ingredients to make sure it doesn’t have any lumps at all or you can be like me and take your lumps where they happen.

Recipe: Vegetable Pad Thai

Who doesn’t love Pad Thai? It’s the perfect Thai style blend of sweet, sour, salty, savory, and spicy flavors. I always assumed it was difficult to make but actually it only takes a couple of minutes! The hardest part is going to the store and getting rice noodles which is something I don’t usually keep on hand. You can make this easily vegetarian or vegan with a couple quick swaps but I like fish sauce too much myself!

Recipe: Taco Rice Bake

All the flavors of a taco neatly baked in to a casserole. My only problem with this recipe is that because it uses cans you can’t halve it really neatly unless you’re making something with the other half of those cans and this really makes eight full servings of food and I tend to enjoy it the first three times and then get bored and it doesn’t freeze particularly well.

Recipe: Funfetti Cake

Who doesn’t love funfetti!? Basically a funfetti cake is just white cake in which you dumped a bunched of sprinkles (aka colorful sugar) in to. It really only make the cake better! This is one I did for Gravity Falls party hence the colorful buttercream and fondant designed but you can do whatever you like on top.

Recipe: Lentil Falafels

I love falafel. I love chickpeas and spices and the delicious tangy yogurt sauces that always come with it but what I don’t really like is lentils. So when I saw this recipe at first I was skeptical but even though I used to crappiest form of lentil they came out so delicious and so perfectly seasoned that I was nibbling them right out of the oven!
