Main Dish

When I bought my “Taiyaki (Japanese fish cake)” pan, I didn’t know how any times I would actually use it.

Taiyaki is typically a sweet treat, stuffed with sweet red beans.

I like it, but I was well aware that there wouldn’t be too many opportunities to make/eat it.

I was right, and I don’t use it to make the traditional cake, but I’ve started using it to make other things.

Like this one.

Instead of stuffing them with sweet beans, I decided to use curried cabbage/carrot, and homemade vegan cheddar.

This is the veggie version.

Simple but tasty!

And this is the cheese version.

I also liked this one too.

A nice combination of sweet and salty.

These are perfect for lunch.

Last night my husband and I went grocery shopping together.

Noticing the bigger flower section right at the entrance, he told me he wanted to buy me flowers.

So this is what I picked.

The label said “chamomile”.

I love it.

So pretty!

He is the best. 🙂

The first time I had “authentic” Mexican street tacos, I was shocked!

Apparently, the only taco I had known until that moment was the so-called “American” version.

I absolutely loved the simplicity and the freshness of them.

I decided to use soy meat for this.

The key is that you want to make sure to flavor it well, but not too much.

Swedish meatballs.

One of my husband’s all-time favorite dishes.

The green beans my mother-in-law got for us were a perfect side dish.

Right before the dinner time, we ran to a store to get lingonberry jam.

When it comes to Swedish meatballs, we are both quite rigid about having to have lingonberry jam (lol).
