Rice, meat, spinach simmered in creamy mushroom soup. So easy. So delicious.
Have you ever tried corn on cob Mexican style? Flavored not only with butter, but cheese, sour cream, chili, cayenne, and all the other fixings? Let me tell you it is delicious! And really filling too. I usually only buy corn on cob (with the husk) during summer when it tastes the best. I soak…
I didn’t realize that a lot of people have this Electric Lunchbox. It was an impulse purchase for me because it was so cute! I mean, just look at it! 😍 One thing I know is that it took a little trial and error for me to be comfortable using it. The instructions included were…
Comfort food! Someone asked for an American dish for the Itaki, so I made beef stew and cornbread! My dad loved beef stew and for me cornbread goes really well with it so here goes! Disclaimer: I used the Itaki Jumbo since my son and I wanted flan again! 😊 The second tier, medium bowl,…
I bought an electrical lunchbox from Qoo10. It comes with 2 stainless steel containers, a lid, egg holder, water measuring cup, and foc cutlery. It's pretty good because I can steam rice from scratch, steam eggs, boil soup, cook porridge and heat up food with it. This is the smallest version I saw from Qoo10,…
The star of this dish is the mash potato. Who knew that you can make mash from real potato in the itaki lunch box. By cutting the potatoes small, it will coo...
Coffee cake in the ELB! A dangerous idea. I love coffee cakes in any shape or form and making it almost effortlessly in the ELB will mean I can have it anytime I want it. Without heating up the oven. Which is a good/bad thing. 😊 But it’s too tempting not to try! (Aside from…
Pie. In. The. Electric. Lunchbox. This blew my mind! And it did not even take too much tries to get it right! Summer to me, is embodied in beaches and grilled food, citrus and blueberries, peaches and watermelon. As we slowly move into Fall, I want to hold on to some summer a little longer…
Fall...Pumpkin...cinnamon...cloves...some things just work perfectly together! Ready or not, fall is coming! What better way to celebrate it than with pumpkin bread? I love the pumpkin bread they serve at Starbucks, with pumpkin seeds on top! It’s a wonderful treat I would pick up often, specially when on vacation. So I tried making a similar…

Another cheesecake recipe! Can you tell it’s one of my favorite desserts? 😊 The fact that it comes together rather quickly with just a few ingredients that I always have, “bakes” in the Electric Lunchbox, and is ready within about an hour, makes it ever present in my dessert rotation. So today, I am making…
I had mentioned how pizza is a staple in my home because my son loves it, but this recipe is totally a different thing. This has the familiar flavor associated with pizza - cheese, tomato, pepperoni...but in dip form. Feel free to use crackers, pita squares, waffles, waffle sticks or toasted bread cut into stick…
I need to go to the grocery store today and as I was looking at my kitchen, I found a lonely banana that was spotted and a little too ripe for eating. Banana bread! BUT there was just ONE banana! My usual banana bread recipe needs a full cup of mashed bananas, which is about…
A look at the Hiroshima okonomiyaki, described as Japanese soul food it's one of the best things you can eat in Japan. See how it's made.
I love potato dishes in every form! And this Scalloped Potatoes, that is safe to take to work and then cooked, is something I had been working on. Cream and milk would need refrigeration so I dropped those. Cheese and butter can sit a little at room temperature better than cream and milk so those…
After a trip to the toaster...perfect! And recipe #2 of my wonderful experiments! Pizza in the Electric Lunchbox....perfected with the help of a toaster! This recipe makes a pizza that is similar to the precooked frozen ones that needs to be baked a bit more before serving, hence the need for the oven toaster. I…
Still on my infatuation with pumpkin...this time we’ll be making a pumpkin pie! A personal sized, good for 2-4 servings, piece of a Thanksgiving tradition. That serving number depends on your desire to share though, and if it is a single serving for you, then that is totally fine too! 😊 *NOTE that this recipe…
I already have a cornbread recipe for the ELB (https://atomic-temporary-164073618.wpcomstaging.com/2020/05/07/electric-lunchbox-beef-stew-and-corn-bread-with-optional-flan/) but I happened to have some bacon grease today (from yesterday’s breakfast!) so I used that to flavor the cornbread I am preparing. Note that this can be prepared in the medium bowl too if you have food cooking in both bottom bowl. Then you…
Steamed Spareribs with Black Beans is your favorite dim sum made easy at home! They're easy to make and so tender and flavorful.
