I Love Cooking Blogs

I am not ambitious enough to do my own cooking blog but I love finding new recipes. So here is a list of a few favorites I’ve discovered:
This is a simple pasta recipe but tastes amazing - it could rival any Italian restaurant dish.


BRAZILIAN CHEESE ROLLS

These are fast and simple to make. The most difficult is finding tapioca flour - but most health food stores should have it. My nieces and nephews practically inhaled these when I made them.


This is the easiest yeast bread - if I can successfully make it then anyone can. It is delicious - and so fun to tear with your hands!


REFRIED BEAN CAKES

These may not look like much - but they are so addictively good!


CURRY BROCCOLI-CAULIFLOWER SOUP

If you don't like spicy or have kids just lighten up the curry. My family raved over this one. Also it is quite simple to just use frozen veggies - and then immersion blend the soup.



This sounded so delicious. Unfortunately when I made it all I had was vanilla flavored soymilk - I don't suggest that. Otherwise I bet this would taste amazing if made with regular flavored milk or soymilk.


SWEET POTATO GNOCCHI
Gnocchi is amazingly easy to make - a little messy with the flour everywhere but very simple. I liked the idea after boiling the gnocchi to then pan fry it. I made a variation of this sauce recipe for on top and it was so tasty.



And a few recipes I haven’t yet tried but would love to indulge sometime:

CHOCOLATE CHIP SNICKERDOODLES

Enjoy!
