Recipe: Double Chocolate Scones

For whatever reason whenever I find scone recipes they’re always covered in some sort of frosting or topping and it feels like the only reason to do that is if you dry out the scones so much that you need a goo on top to retain moisture. Well, the original recipe for these scones also had a chocolate frosting and I just don’t think you need it at all especially with how much ooey-gooey chocolate is inside. At the worst you can warm these up for 15-20 seconds in the microwave to get a softer texture right before eating.

Menu: The Saddle

Here’s my menu for this week. 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 the food I actually made on Friday 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.

Recipe: Cheeseburger Mac and Cheese

The original recipe was made with beef but I just make it with ground chicken but you could use any vegetarian meat replacement crumbles and it’d probably work just fine. While every recipe like this say “one pot” I have no idea why people desire to lie to you, this is a two pot recipe: one pasta pot to make the macaroni and one large skillet or dutch oven for everything else it’s still super easy and comes together in about 30 minutes with no chopping if you skip the onion (or buy diced onions).

Recipe: Liège Waffles

If you have a little time in the morning or decide you want something special the next day these are a great change up from the traditional pancakes and quick waffle batter. What’s so great about this type of waffle is that the batter is a solid mass so there’s no spills or leaks even if you overfill the waffle iron. The original recipe calls for sugar crystals but if you don’t have these you can omit them and simply make sure to put some delicious jam, jelly, syrup, or even savory toppings on the waffles for best results.
