Tried And True Pinterest Recipes
Smart Living

In my humble opinion, Pinterest is just about the best website in existence. I get to avoid responsibilities while pretending to gather information that I'll use some day. The likelihood of that actually happening? Slim to none. However, one board is beneficial enough that I try out the pins on it. This board is creatively titled "Food." Here's a few of my favorite finds (the recipes can be found by clicking on the pictures):

1. Zucchini Lasagna

Since I have a rebellious streak and don't usually follow recipes completely, I made mine the classic lasagna way, instead of making roll-ups and swapped the ricotta cheese for cottage cheese. Overall, delicious, and definitely worth the hand cramps I got from grating all that zucchini.

2. Peaches and Cream Crepes

I may or may not have totally failed at flipping said crepes and ended up with several chunks of skinny-looking pancakes, but I have a sister who saved my cooking endeavor and we ended up with several beautiful crepes. My changes: I don't even know what mascarpone cheese is, so I used cream cheese for the filling.

3. Broccoli Tots

About 50 percent of these actually stuck together, but they tasted A-maz-ing.

4. Cauliflower Quinoa Meatballs

Disclaimer: I'm a complete wimp when it comes to spicy things, so "buffalo" isn't even a word in my culinary vocabulary. Dairy free butter also did not happen. As a result, my meatballs, were more of a patty. Still good!

5. Deep Dish Fudgy Oatmeal Bars

They're as good as they look!

6. Sausage Pepper Fettuccini Skillet

I've made this one a few times now and drool a little when I think about it. It's an easy recipe to play around a bit with the ingredients, and I encourage you to do so!

7. Tomato Avocado Melt

I like to make this in more of a grilled cheese style. Then I mix some of Emril Lagasse's Baby Bam with a little may and spread it on. It has become one of my favorite college meals.

8. Lasagna Soup

Lasagna is beautiful in all forms, but you might want to make sure you rip up the noodles into the size shown in the recipe. I started out strong, but by the end I was throwing the whole noodles in. That makes it quite difficult to consume, in case you were wondering.

9. Funfetti Pancakes

These pancakes are a wise choice if you're a fan of birthday cake variations.

10. Lunch Lady Brownies

For years I have been on a hunt to find a recipe that tastes like the brownies I had in elementary school, and this is the closest I've found so far.

11. Cheeseburger Casserole

This recipe combines several of my favorite foods, so there was really no way it could be bad.

I had to exit out of Pinterest because I was becoming ravenous from looking at all the food, but I highly encourage you to try these recipes.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
