Avocado Egg Toast

June 8, 2015 Breakfast

This is one of the simplest breakfasts that I make. It started with a jar of chipotle powder I had gotten almost two years ago, which I rarely used. Not sure what to put it in, the powder sat closed in my cabinet for months and the only time they made an appearance was when I […]

Nutty Sea Salt Chocolate Chunk Cookies

May 25, 2015 cholesterol free

These cookies are sweet and salty in each bite, with chocolate chunks drizzled with sea salt. A pecan and walnut blend gives bursts of crunch as you eat. It’s a classic chocolate chip cookie, dressed up with sea salt and nuts, with a soft chewy interior. These cookies started when I saw a photo of chocolate […]

Gourmet Instant Ramen

May 11, 2015 Asian Dishes

Does this title sound ironic? Maybe a little bit? I know you’re thinking that instant ramen can not be gourmet, but when the ramen restaurant is so far away, one has to get a bit creative at home! This is the super fast upgraded version of ramen I make in my apartment. I add a lot […]

Banana Cream Cake

April 27, 2015 Cakes

Banana bread was the first dessert that had me hooked on baking. So soft and moist, and turning my least favorite fruit into something much more magical. I used to not like eating bananas back in high school, and when my mom would say “eat some bananas they are good for you” I would hope […]

Saucy Chow Mein

April 20, 2015 Asian Dishes

If there is one thing the Savoring Spork loves, it is chow mein – especially saucy chow mein with noodles swimming in a golden brown coat of soy sauce. Chow mein translates to “fried noodles” and is the noodle cousin of fried rice. You can put anything you want in it – make it vegetarian […]

Cinnamon Swirl Bundt Cake

March 24, 2015 Breakfast

I have finally made it out of the dungeons of my pre-clinical year med school finals, and it feels really good to be done with class forever. When the last final finished, my classmates celebrated at the fourth floor of the building we had classes in every day for the last 1.5 years and let out […]

Oatmeal Macadamia Cookies

March 13, 2015 cholesterol free

My dad’s birthday was last week! So I made him oatmeal macadamia cookies to celebrate. Because of my finals schedule this year, I could not fly home for his birthday so mailed these cookies home. Since his favorite cookie is oatmeal and his favorite nut is macadamia nuts, I combined the two in an oatmeal macadamia […]

Chinese Tea Eggs

February 23, 2015 Appetizers

Hello! Sorry for being MIA recently! I’m taking my medical boards soon, and am busy trying to finish as much of my research as possible before the dedicated boards time starts. No fear, though, I have still been making delicious things – just haven’t had time to write posts. In the next few months, I’ll […]
