Here’s my menu for this week. Just as a note I usually make all or almost all of everything listed on a given menu though I tend to eat things out of order (sometimes you’re just not in the mood for something or you don’t want to cook a complex dish on the weekend like you thought you would). You can always see how I did on Friday’s when I post my weekly lunch compilation on @mabmadefood. As usual this menu only has lunches and dinners because we always eat the same breakfast.

I’m going to try and get back into the habit of posting menus every week. I usually make 95% of everything that’s on the menu though I tend to eat things out of order (sometimes you’re just not in the mood for something or you don’t want to cook a complex dish on the weekend like you thought you would). You can always see how I did on Friday’s when I post my weekly lunches compilation on @mabmadefood. As usual this menu only has lunches and dinners because we always eat the same breakfast.

Long time no menu! I’ve decided to update this site in a lot of ways and one of my big projects for the year is to remake recipes with bad images and updating them. My new plan is to only publish less new recipes (maybe 1-2 a month) and instead update old recipes. There’s already well over 250 recipes on this site and I think they’re all boring at this point so I want to branch out a little bit more. In the meantime I hope to post more menus, for bentos you’ll have to go to @mabmadefood and maybe I’ll do a better job this year of posting there as well.
