If a doctor told you to take 2 collagen pills a day for three months, would you miss a single day? Now if they told you to eat one cup of cherry jelly a day for three months, would you?

1957. Yogurt Biscuit Cake

Apparently when you put cookies into Greek yogurt, and keep it in the fridge overnight, the cookies will soften from the yogurt and the whole thing will taste like cheesecake.  The result should be soft moist 'cake like' layers paired with greek yogurt which will taste like a 'healthier' cheesecake! If needed, top with honey for more sweetness.

1822. Puffed Nutella Bananas


The food scene has exploded, which might be a good thing, were it not for the clickbait problem. Many quick and attractive food videos are spamming our feeds, and when implemented, the recipe is a flop. Not a great introduction to these puffed nutella bananas, but a reality that needs to have light shed on it.

1806. Qamr Al Deen Roll Ups


There came a moment when mega-sour fruit roll ups were all the rage, and I certainly do not tend to jump on every bandwagon, but it is interesting the trends they come up with. A happy coincidence was that I had some apricot leather, qamr al deen, and fresh pomegranate available, and an optional drizzle of pomegranate molasses for some extra tartness.
