It is safe to say that I have had copious amounts of Chinese food in the past two weeks. My family has a tradition of eating a Chinese buffet for Christmas and I ate A TON of it that day. I also ate Chinese food a couple of times in Boston’s Chinatown between Christmas and the New Year….

Teriyaki Portobello Mushroom Burgers
This past week has been super busy with starting grad school, starting my part-time internship, and still moving stuff into my new apartment. I feel like I’ve been non-stop running for seven days straight. But, I feel like I finally got myself organized this weekend and still had a chance to make these scrumptious portobello…
Kohlrabi and Zucchini Fritters with Sriracha Mayo
Ever wonder what to do with kohlrabi? You know, that strange purple or pale green vegetable that you can find at your local farmer’s market?

I graduated from Boston University in December with a Bachelor’s Degree in Health Sciences (concentrating in Public Health) but, my school did not offer a graduation ceremony then. So, I participated in the all-university commencement and individual school graduation ceremony…
Raw Raspberry Crumb Bars
Does anyone know how to make a carton of berries last more than a day? Is that even a thing? Because I don’t know in the slightest. Whether I get a tiny carton of berries from the grocery store or a mega-sized box of berries from Costco, I cannot seem to make it last more than one…
