Started day 5 with the usual chicken sandwich (new marinade!) and a little extra of banana and chocolate!

Let's start with the chicken sandwich. Chicken cubes with lettuce and white bread, easy to prepare, good to eat!

Day 1 and 2 I had the same chicken, boneless skinless healthy chicken cubes pan fried in honey bbq sauce, smoked bbq seasoning and black pepper. No salt needed. Was quite yums but I should have pan fried a little longer to get that charred effect.

Yesterday I tried something different. The day before I bought dried basil and oregano and chili powder. Regretted not getting garlic powder too. I'm still figuring out basil so I tried the following instead:

3 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1 1/2 tbsp chili powder
2 cloves garlic, mashed & chopped
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp vinegar
salt & pepper

Was kinda good! But maybe I should've marinated longer so the flavours seep in. And probably can add a bit more vinegar too!

I quite like stir frying chicken! Very fast and can play around with different flavours. Should be the same with sliced beef as well. My only hurdle now is to get Husband to like them too hmm.

Anyway!! I was up earlier than usual this morning because Junior cried for milk, I had time to have a little dessert. What was supposed to be just a healthy banana became a sinful dessert. Haha! The banana was too cold for my teeth so I wanted to heat it up, then I thought, why not add chocolate to the mug and heat them altogether! Was AWESOME. Hot chocolate with yummy gooey banana in 40 seconds. Reminds me of camping days when we'd put wedged bananas in aluminium foil and chocolate chunks in the bananas and into the fire! One of the best camping memories. I know. Best camping memory is food?!



Ahhh. I love simple desserts! I think I wanna make this tonight for Husband! :)

CNY Bakes

Back from the long weekend! Spent two days fully at home, cooking and baking. So happy. Day 1 was sindhi briyani and Almond London . Day 2 was ayam lemak cili padi and a batch of almost Famous Amos chocolate chip cookies , but I split the batter into 2: hazelnut, white chocolate, cranberry combination and hazelnut, dark chocolate chip combination. I made the cranberry ones first, they taste awesome. But after I ate the chocolate chip one, say bye bye to cranberry! Nothing beats chocolate. And the white chocolate chips somehow dissolved into the batter, melted. What to do, it's just white chips from Redman. I should try a better brand instead.  Happy new year indeed!

White Chocolate Cranberry Oatmeal Bars

 I love these! It's like a blondie but to make me feel less guilty, there's oatmeal. Was supposed to make these and freeze for easy morning breakfasts, but seems like they ran out pretty quickly that it didn't require that much freezing. Original recipe here . I made these almost three months ago and I still think about making these again and again. White Chocolate Cranberry Oatmeal Bars 2 1/2 cups old fashioned oats 2 cups flour 1 1/2 cups brown sugar 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon vanilla 2 large eggs 1 1/4 cups butter melted 1 cups white chocolate chips 1 cup dried cranberries This is like one bowl mix so anything goes. Spread batter in two 8x8 square tins, bake for 22 min at 180 degrees Celsius. 

Daiso Ramekins

Finally finally went to Daiso!! Wanted to go there for ages already! The first thing I came in, went to the cooking section. Found my ramekins! But they're not white. Oh wells. Can't be choosy for $2 ramekins! There were white ones, but super small white ramekins. And pie tarts too! Oooh so tempting! But I don't know when I'll make tarts hurhur. Actually I'm still thinking what I should bake using these ramekins. I remember having one of those "I wish I had ramekins right now" moments but I can't remember when. Maybe when I was making lava cake . Daiso is evil. It's so cheap you just feel like coming back again! Oh and did I mention there's a $2 weighing scale?! Measures up to a kilo but that's quite alright for baking isn't it! I mean, $2!! Dirt cheap lah. Not sure about the accuracy though. Didn't do much cleaning last weekend, very much spent lazing around at home just like what weekends should be like. I love being at ho
