It's ofFISHally Friday! Time for someFIN good.
Happy #fishfriday! [AD] Fish sticks were one of my favorite lunches growing up with a gargantuan serving of tartar sauce so why make that into a sandwich? Slather a soft French roll with tartar sauce (or remoulade, if you're a purist), layer up freshly sliced tomatoes and shredded lettuce, then pile as many @gortonsseafood fish sticks as you can!
Work has continued to take over these past few months and I’m slowly making my way back to what I love! Long hours in the office meant lots of take-out but I’ve been stocking my freezer with @gortonsseafood. Being able to mix and match different variety of fish sticks and fish fillets with pantry staples to make quick and delicious meals at home is so crucial for me right now.

The steaks have never been higher. First post of

The steaks have never been higher. First post of 2022! I had hoped this year would start off with a bang and I think this @sunfedranch rib-eye steak Buddha bowl does the trick [AD] I'm still juggling an overwhelming amount of work from my day job and it's been hard to be consistent with cooking meals (and posting, for that matter). Making Buddha bowls is my favorite way to prepare lots of veggies ahead of time and then throw them into a bowl, top it off with protein, drizzle on homemade tahini lemon dressing, and dig in for an easy weeknight dinner. I like keeping quality steaks in the freezer for impromptu meals. They freeze and defrost well (and also don't take up a whole lot of freezer space) and only take minutes to sear up. @sunfedranch is a great choice for all things beef. They're a local ranch in NorCal and their goal is simple: produce delicious beef that's better for the environment and better for our health. They practice sustainable ranching and their cattle is 100% grass fed and grass finished so the beef is juicier, tastier, and packed with more nutrients and Omega 3s. Take a look at your grocery's meat section next time to look for @sunfedranch! Hoping to carve out more time to spend with everyone on IG again soon! I miss seeing everyone's posts and creativity. #sunfedranch #grassfedbeef #buddhabowl #meat #beef #steak #dinneridea #mealprep #homemade #makeitdelicious #foodphotooftheday #foodfeed #foodblogeats #foodideas #bakersgonnabake #hereismyfood #thecookfeed #droolclub #eatcaptureshare #nomnom #thehappynow #foodblogfeed #eatgood #feedfeed #f52grams #lifeandthyme #onthetable #discoverunder10k

I can nutella you how excited I am for the holiday

I can nutella you how excited I am for the holidays! Tang yuan (sweet rice balls) filled with @nutella and chopped hazelnuts served in a mulled hot syrup. My favorite memories growing up all involve cooking with my mom, especially during the holidays. My parents usually made classic Chinese dishes even for western holidays. Holiday foods are intertwined with superstition in Chinese culture; puns and playful homophones give dishes symbolic meanings. My mom liked making tang yuan for family gatherings as the pronunciation is similar to the Chinese phrase that means "reunite," to convey the togetherness or gathering of family. I've been feeling very nostalgic about cooking with my mom lately and wanted to create something that combined my Chinese heritage and American culture. Traditional tang yuan can be filled or unfilled, savory or sweet. I grew up with the sweet version filled with black sesame paste. The balls are made with glutinous rice (think texture of mochi) and the classic syrup is made from water, sugar, and ginger. For my rendition of tang yuan, I tweaked the filling and syrup to add some western holiday cheer. I mixed @nutella with chopped hazelnuts, then froze it so that it could be handled easier when forming the tang yuan. Star anise, cinnamon sticks, allspice berries, and oranges were added to the syrup base and simmered for half an hour. My house smelled like Christmas all day. #sandyeats #nutellarecipes @thefeedfeed @thefeedfeed.chocolate #contest #feedfeed #dessertrecipe #familyrecipes #chocolate #mulled #spiced #hazelnuts #holidays #sweettooth #sweettreat #homemade #glutenfree #foodphotooftheday #foodfeed #foodblogeats #foodideas #f52grams #foodfluffer #foodstyling #makeitdelicious #eatcaptureshare #still_life_gallery #discoverunder10k

A round of a-claws! Lobster Wellington made with @lukeslobster lobster knuckle and claw meat wrapped with beech mushrooms, lacinato kale, prosciutto, and puff pastry [AD] Oh, and served with a side of horseradish cream. Still need holiday meal ideas? Consider this as your main dish! This dish has many components but it doesn't mean everything has to be made at the same time. I personally hate needing to cook everything the day of the meal because that just means a mad dash until the finish line. I like this lobster wellington for several reasons: (1) the lobster meat comes from @lukeslobster which means I know I don't have to worry about the quality of the main ingredient at all, (2) the other components can be cooked the night before for a quick assembly, (3) I can use store bought puff pastry, and (4) it's super quick to assemble. @lukeslobster is a Certified B Corporation which means they meet the highest standards of social and environmental performance. It's so important to me to know that businesses balance profit and purpose. @lukeslobster buys all their lobsters directly from fishermen so there is high transparency where the seafood is coming from. Their processing facility is in Saco, Maine so they steam, pack, and ship nationwide right there. Check out all their different seafood products! #sandyeats #lukeslobster #lobster #recipeideas #thekitchen #holidays #puffpastry #seafood #homemade #makeitdelicious #foodphotooftheday #foodfeed #foodblogeats #foodideas #bakersgonnabake #hereismyfood #foodblogfeed #eatgood #feedfeed #f52grams #baking #lifeandthyme #onthetable #fallvibes #holidaymeal #discoverunder10k

Pop it like it's hot. Homemade apple cider bourbo

Pop it like it's hot. Homemade apple cider bourbon caramel popcorn [AD] I'm thinking of making another holiday cookie/confection box this year and been playing with the idea of a holiday popcorn. I used @connectsnacks gourmet butterfly yellow popcorn kernels for this sweet snack. This popcorn has flavors of crisp apple, sweet caramel, and hints of vanilla and oak. The husband hasn't stopped munching on this for a few days now so I think it might be a winner. Interested in the recipe? Let me know in the comments! Some earliest forms of popcorn have been discovered in Peruvian tombs from over 1,000 years ago. The modern form of popcorn is credited to Charles Cretors, a Chicago entrepreneur who built the first popcorn-popping machine in 1885. Then General Mills patented the first microwavable popcorn bag in 1981 and made popcorn even more accessible. Today, 17.3 billion quarts of popcorn are consumed by Americans each year. That's a whole lot of popping. By reducing synthetic nitrogen fertilizer usage, @connectsnacks promises three things: cleaner water, cleaner air, and naturally good food. They're starting with popcorn and dedicated to finding more sustainable, more responsible ways to farm and be kinder to the planet. Consider their popcorn the next time you reach for snacks! #sandyeats #connectsnacks #gifted #popcorn #fallvibes #applecider #bourbon #caramel #snacktime #snackattack #sweettreat #homemade #makeitdelicious #foodphotooftheday #foodfeed #foodblogeats #foodideas #hereismyfood #foodblogfeed #eatgood #feedfeed #f52grams #lifeandthyme #madefromscratch #discoverunder10k

Going to brunch. Cashew later! Lightly toasted ol

Going to brunch. Cashew later! Lightly toasted olive levain with heirloom tomatoes, pea sprouts, fried egg, and @thedairyfreeco Schmirable cashew spread [GIFTED] My perfect weekend brunch toast always consist of fresh baked bread, eggs, and definitely a creamy component to hold it all together. What goes on top of your ideal toast? Cashews are so versatile. I love using cashews in desserts when I bake for vegan coworkers. They achieve such a rich and creamy texture - just like this spread! @thedairyfreeco cashew spreads use only sustainably sourced ingredients. The cashew spread is a great alternative to cream cheese on bagels and perfect for those looking to incorporate more plant-based foods to diets. I picked up @thedairyfreeco cashew spread at my local @sprouts! #sandyeats #thedairyfreeco @dairyfreeathletes #cashews #brunch #toast #eggs #breakfast #tomatoes #bread #f52grams #feedfeed #makeitdelicious #easyrecipe #foodphotooftheday #foodfeed #foodblogeats #foodideas #hereismyfood #foodblogfeed #eatgood #lifeandthyme #instayum #onthetable #mealideas #discoverunder10k
