  • Miniature Pizzas

    Miniature Pizzas

    I made some miniature pizzas today. I made the dough (3 cups flour, 1 cup water, 2 tbsp oil, 1 tbsp honey, 1tbsp yeast, 1 tsp salt) and cooked up a veggie burger patty. Once the dough was ready, I split half which I’ll use later this week. With the other half, I rolled it out, divided it in 9 parts, putting each in muffin cups. I then put in some pizza sauce, put in bits of the veggie burger patty, and covered it with cheese. I baked it for about 15 minutes at 325F.

    Next time, I’ll skip using muffin cups and put the mini-pizzas directly in the trays.

  • Granola Bars

    Granola Bars

    I made some granola bars today. I used the Chewy Granola Bars recipe from AllRecipes, and substituted the oats for a strawberry granola mix from Bulk Barn. I also added marshmallows.

    The results were pretty good, though next time I’ll use oats proper and skip on the marshmallows.

  • Pretzels!

    I made pretzels this weekend, using this recipe from Our Best Bites. They turned out absolutely delicious!

    I like to cook. Made a maple-syrup pie and whole-wheat garlic basil bread yesterday. Also shown: cinnamon bun cookies, pizza with cheese-stuffed crusts, peanut butter cookies, New-York style cheesecake, layered chicken burger, ham & cheese stuffed Focaccia bread, and chocolate cake with a cheesecake-dip topping.

  • Baklava Fun

    Baklava Fun

    I decided to try to make my own baklavas. I kind of screwed up the dough though, so it looks better than it tastes.
