Chocolate Cups with Berries & Homemade Whip Cream
Originally for our blog’s first birthday, I had planned to make some cute mini cakes for the occasion. However, that plan was scrapped when I realized I had burnt them! =( I was seriously bummed… Naturally I wasn’t about to post any embarrassing pictures of charcoal-color bundt cakes. (Next time will be better, I promise!) … Continue reading
Food Comas Turns 1!
May 13th marks a special day for us here… Food Comas turns 1 year old today! Exactly one year ago, I wrote my first ever blog post on Baby Lamb Chops with Cucumber-Mint Relish.

Roasted Asparagus with Poached Egg and Prosciutto
Here is a very classic savory salad with sweet and tender asparagus, poached eggs, and prosciutto from my Ad Hoc at Home cookbook. The aged balsamic vinegar balances out the richness of the egg and salty ham, and the fried croutons add a nice crunchy texture. Poached eggs are my favorite kind of eggs (obsessed … Continue reading
Torn Croutons
I am unsure why I haven’t made my own croutons before, it is so easy and such a good use of leftover bread (compared to forgetting about it until it starts growing new mold species as what normally happens). I made these fried bread croutons for my savory warm salad: Roasted Asparagus with Poached Egg … Continue reading

Tequila Lime Shrimp Tacos
For our Cinco de Mayo Fiesta, Natalya and I decided to set up a taco station. On our lazier days, we just cook some ground beef with a packet taco seasoning, but I wanted to do something different. I was debating about making some pulled chicken in the same way we did for our Layered … Continue reading
Tequila Lime Rice
I ended up liking the idea of soaking the sauce from Tequila Lime Shrimp into the rice so much that made a second batch of the sauce just to cook especially with the rice. Basically, I just tweaked the Tequila Lime Shrimp recipe portions of the “margarita sauce” and then added cooked rice to the … Continue reading
Tequila Lime Shrimp
From one of my favorite cooking blogs, Closet Cooking, this is Kevin’s take on Margarita Shrimp. I was trying to think of what to make for a Cinco de Mayo Fiesta and naturally all I could think of was margaritas. I ended up trying a recipe for Margarita Shrimp, which required marinating the shrimp in … Continue reading
Spicy Bean Salsa
As Jen and I brainstormed the menu for our Cinco de Mayo Fiesta, we wanted (for the lack of a better word) to spice up a normal salsa recipe. So we found this and it turned out to be very easy to make, refreshing, delicious, with just the right amount of kick. We had also … Continue reading
