Tteobbakki (Korean Rice Cake Street Food) . . Ingredients - 1 package of Tteobbakki (Korean rice cakes) - Gochujang (Red Pepper Paste) - 1 tablespoon of soy sauce - 1 tablespoon of sesame oil - Garlic Powder - 1 bundle of enoki mushrooms - Japanese chives (Allium tuberosum - I just Googled that 😉. Kind of sounds like a Harry Potter spell) . . Cooking Instructions 1. Place Tteobbakki in a mixing bowl and let soak in water for 5-10 minutes (hot water if the Tteobbakki is frozen) 2. While the rice cakes soak, chop up and clean enoki mushrooms and Japanese chives 3. Drain the Tteobbakki and add to a wok or frying pan at medium high heat 4. Add a spoonful or two of gochujang (taste test a little bit on your finger because it is spicy), sesame oil, soy sauce, and sprinkle garlic powder. Mix the paste and rice cakes. - If you find the paste to be too thick add a little bit of water 5. Add Japanese chives and enoki mushrooms 6. Continue to mix until everything is covered. Serve and enjoy!! . . I was craving Tteobbakki today. I haven’t had it for a few months. . The first time I tried this was years ago when Jeff and I lived in Japan and we were at a Japanese night festival. The next time I would have it would be in Clovis, New Mexico while visiting a friend who lived in town. She grew up with Korean traditional dishes and I was so curious (I did not grow up eating Korean food). She gave me a plastic bag with the ingredients to make Tteobbakki and I tried it at home. So easy and full of bright flavor! . . It’s also fun to mix and add other ingredients. In this case, I added chives and enoki mushrooms and removed the fish cakes. . . #yum #tteokbokki #ricecakes #homecooking #recipe #spicy #spicyfood #comfortfood #koreanfood #cooking

Recipe: Stuffed Crescent Dough Rolls with Seasoned Turkey Sausage and Melted Swiss Cheese . . Ingredients: - 3 Pre-made Crescent Roll Doughs (or homemade) - 1-2 packages of Turkey Sausage (or your favorite kind of sausage) - Butter - Dried Basil - Garlic Powder - Himalayan Pink Salt - 1 Diced White, Yellow, or Sweet Onion - Baby Swiss Cheese (Mozzarella, Gouda, and any melt-y cheese will work) . . Cooking Instructions: - Sauté sausage and onion with a 1/2-1 Tbsp of butter on medium high heat - Gently put the cooked sausage and onions into a mixing bowl and add salt, garlic powder, and dried basil to your taste. - Take a palm-sized amount of crescent dough and roll into a ball. Then smoosh flat on a hard surface (I used a cutting board). - Spread out the dough with your fingers and place some sausage, onions, and cheese in the center. - Wrap the filling with the crescent roll dough and shape into a ball with your hands - Bake the rolls at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 13-15 minutes. - Serve as is or add a dip. I mixed extra virgin olive oil, balsamic vinaigrette, and black pepper. . . This recipe was perfect for this time. I’m a stay-at-home mom and I love cooking with my son. Making stuffed rolls was time consuming, fun, and hilarious. While making the rolls my son kept reaching for the crescent roll dough and I was acting goofy and tried to stop him. For some reason the tease made him laugh a lot. Also, him being able to play with the dough like play dough entertained him. . . When these rolls were done my husband gave me a big high five. They are comfort food and everyone loved them. Try it and make fun/funny memories together :) Enjoy! . . . #stuffedrolls #crescentrolls #rolls #butter #sausage #turkeysausage #eat #happy #cook #cooking #comfortfood #driedbasil #swisscheese #dinnerideas #dinner #recipes #homecooking #militaryfamily #momlife #cookingforatoddler #toddler #delicious #simple #semihomemade #familytime BBC

Hey Everybody, Here’s a new recipe for you 😊 . . Soy Sauce, Honey, and Herb Pork Loin Center Chops . . Ingredients: - 2 Pork Loin Center Chops - Butter Marinade: - 1/4 cup Soy Sauce - 1/4 cup Raw Honey - Spoonful of Dijon Mustard - 2 tablespoons Garlic Powder - 1 tablespoon of Italian Herb Blend - 1 tablespoon Smoked Paprika - Drizzle of Olive Oil . . Cooking Instructions: - Bring your pan to medium high heat and melt 1-2 tablespoons of unsalted butter. Let it melt completely and coat the pan. - Place pork loins on the pan and let them fry for 3-4 minutes before flipping them over. - Lower the heat to medium. - After you flip the pork loins the first time use a cooking brush (or spoon) to add the marinade - Flip again after 2-3 minutes and add more marinade - Do this two more times and the pork should be cooked all the way through - Let them rest for a few minutes before you serve - Drizzle leftover sauce on top and garnish with dried parsley (optional) . . This was our dinner tonight and it was SO tasty! The pork came out very tender and juicy. The marinade is delicious and I used it on our vegetables, too. They were pan fried broccoli and onions. . . You may notice in the picture some bacon cooking with the pork loins. That was me having a “creative moment” and I ended up burning the bacon. Haha! So, the bacon did not make it onto the plate, but has become a snack for our dog. . . Lately I’ve been illustrating, drawing, and writing. You can see the makings of my books and art at @jlp_stephensart . . Have a great rest of the week and talk to you soon! - Jessica ✨✨✨✨ . . #pork #dinner #recipes #food #homecooking #lovetoeat #enjoy #yummy #tasty #delicious #dinnerideas #mom #family #dogmom #militaryspouse #good

✨✨✨New Recipe ✨✨✨ . Black Bean Garlic Sauce Marinade . Tastes really good on beef ribs. This marinade would work on all sorts of proteins, pan fried vegetables, and noodles! . I like to use a grated pear to tenderize beef. I discard the skin. If this recipe isn’t sweet enough then use brown sugar. . Enjoy 😊 . . . . . #marinade #beef #blackbeangarlicsauce #meat #weightlossrecipes #recipes #pear #dinner #lunch #appetizers #food #foodie #eat #familydinner #love

Our son had his 3rd birthday celebration this past weekend. The theme was pretty much a play date on steroids. Haha! . . Lots of toys, food, people, music, and indoor/outdoor play. The kids found a shovel and soon there were construction toys, buckets and a dirt track all over the patio. It was awesome! . . We kept our doors open from 10 AM - 3 PM with the birthday song and cupcakes scheduled for noon. People could come and go as they pleased and celebrate around soccer games, other activities, and various nap times. While the kids played the parents could sit, chat, and eat. . . When it was all over Jeff and I could really take our time cleaning up (I finally cleaned the dishes two days later) and opening up presents. . . Here’s a party idea for cupcakes/cake. We had 3 different flavors covered with homemade buttercream (so easy to make and dangerously delicious) and made these platters so the kids could decorate their own cup cakes. So much fun! 🥳 . . Side note: Go to your local dollar store to purchase platters, plates, and serving utensils. Nice and easy on the budget. 😎 . . . . #treehousecooking #party #platters #partyplatter #birthday #birthdayparty #birthdaypartyideas #cookingfortoddlers #toddlers #cupcakes #playdate #play #food #sweets #fruit #candy #cookies #desserts #partylife #fun #love #happy

✨✨✨✨NEW RECIPE ✨✨✨✨ . . Avocado and Roasted Chicken Sandwich with Wasabi Mayonnaise: . . Ingredient List . . Bread (Your Choice) A handful of Mixed Greens 1 Tomato Roasted Chicken 1 Avocado Balsamic Vinaigrette Wasabi Mayonnaise Pink Himalayan Salt and Black Pepper Scallions . . I like to use this condiment, wasabi mayonnaise, to dip sushi, french fries, and chips in. I’ll even add some on the side of my ramen or noodle dishes when I need a kick in the taste buds. I really like it in this sandwich, though: Avocado and Roasted Chicken. All the flavors pair well together and the heat and flavor from the wasabi is not overwhelming. Enjoy! . . . . #yummy #chickenrecipes #roastedchicken #recipes #recipeideas #lunchideas #dinnerideas #sandwiches #followme #love #food #wasabi #wasabimayo #cooking #cookingforkids #cookingforfamily #good #thenewhealthy #healthyrecipes #yum #eat #haveagoodday
