Peanut Butter Granola

After Reading Week I decided to make it a priority for me to have more variety in my lunches. Lunch is by far my least favourite meal of the day. I find it tedious to make *cough* sandwiches *cough* and I find I get bored of things quite quickly. However, one day picking up an overpriced parfait on campus, I realized just what to do with the leftover oats and honey and peanut butter I had sitting in my cupboard.

Salted White-Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies

As of last exam period I have had the most intense craving for white chocolate.  And, I'm not afraid to admit that on Monday night after working on a STATA assignment, I came home, crawled into bed and ate an entire Lindt white chocolate bar. #NoRegrets If you too love white chocolate then these cookies are a great option. However, as with all recipes I write (when they don't turn out perfectly) I will give you my critiques, so please read the entire post before you start baking and if you make any alterations, please let me know how it turned out!

Exam Trilogy #3: Cottage Pie Recipe

The final installment of the Exam Trilogy is a recipe. During exams, no one wants to cook and especially when you have an exam at 7, it can be hard to make time to cook dinner. A recipe like Cottage Pie is great because it has the comfort food element, the winter, stick-to-your-bones element and you can just stick some in the microwave for a quick dinner without the food going soggy. I also used minced turkey to make the recipe slightly healthier. If you you want to improve on that you could use a cauliflower mash instead of potatoes. I made mine with a friend to split the food as well as to take a "social" break from studying.
