There’s shakshuka and then there’s the Quinoa and Egg Enchilada Skillet from Maya Wilson’s @alaskafromscratch cookbook, which is inspired by shakshuka but shook up by Tex-Amex flavors (enchilada sauce, jack cheese, cumin). Hearty. Cheesy. Eggy. Awesome. #guygourmet #recipes #shakshuka #quinoa #enchilada #amanapanaplan #onepancooking #castironskillet #castironcooking #alaskafromscratch #hashtags
Homemade pretzel nuggets, made with a lil help from a @kristasbakingco kit. Served with copious amounts of mustard. Sorry not sorry to anyone doing Whole30! #pretzels #gamedaygrub #gamedayfood #carbs #carbscarbscarbs #carbsarelife
New Year’s Food Resolution #3: Eat some vegetables, dammit. Most people don’t consume nearly enough produce, and that’s a shame because it’s loaded with fiber, which keeps you full (and regular!), and antioxidants, which battle a whole host of deadly diseases. Need help? Check out the Runner’s World Vegetarian Cookbook for smart, delicious ways (like this Chickpea Pesto Tomato Soup) to work more fruits and vegetables into your diet. #foodresolutions #eatyourdamnvegetables #healthyeating #recipes #soup #eatthisnow
Frequently asked question: How do you cook a thick cut of meat? Like one thicker than your typical steak?
Step 1: Break out your cast iron pan. Or at least an oven safe pan. But really you should have a cast iron pan.
Step 2: Preheat your oven to 400*F. This is going to involve a one-two combo of heat.
Step 3: Heat a little oil in the pan over medium-high. When it shimmers, add the cut of meat, which you’ve aggressively seasoned. Sear until well browned, 2 to 3 minutes a side.
Step 4: Put everything in the oven and cook until a digital thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the cut registers your desired doneness.
Step 5: Wearing oven mitts (that pan is screaming hot by now), remove the pan, transfer the meat to a plate to rest, and then dig in. Maybe even top with a coffee-blackberry pan sauce, like this pork chop here if you want.

New Year’s Food Resolution #2: Have some fun with food, would you? So much about dieting is sucking the joyous parts out of cooking and eating. Yes, meal prep is practical, but it’s also mind-numbingly boring roasting 20 chicken breasts. Every so often, make a completely bonkers recipe, like this one, found in the pages of the Roald Dahl’s Revolting Recipes (Puffin Books 1997 y’all!). It’s Mr. Twit’s Beard Food. Mashed potato base. Hard-boiled egg eyes with black olive pupils. Mushroom nose and ears. Cocktail weenie mouth with rolled bread teeth. A beard of corn flakes, potato sticks, pretzel sticks, peas, baked beans, ketchup, and Swiss cheese cubes. Ridiculous? Yes, but that’s exactly the point. #mealprep #roalddahl #beardfood #mrtwit #funwithfood #playwithyourfood #litlweenies
New Year’s Food Resolution #1: Stop ordering chicken tacos. You always order chicken tacos and chicken tacos are fine but COME ON there’s a wild and wonderful world of taco fillings out there awaiting your exploration. Chorizo. Lengua. Cabeza. Carnitas. Nopales. Barbacoa. Tripa. Suadero. And so many more. Make 2019 your Year of the Expanded Taco Taste Experience.

Just a giant cast-iron pan full of Savannah Red Rice from the @lodgecastiron cookbook. That’s andouille sausage and shrimp with Carolina rice cooked in a fragrant tomato-based stew. #amanapanaplan
The crevices of the Elvis sandwich. Bacon. Peanut butter. Banana. Amazing. Go on, make it your home screen background. #sandwiches #bacon #peanutbutter #banana #hounddog
Not knocking tomato soup and grilled cheese, but homemade tomato soup with leftover roasted chicken, cubed avocado, crumbled queso fresca, fresh cilantro, lime juice, and a shake of Tajin seasoning isn’t bad either. #cooking #recipes #tomatosoup #soup #tajinseasoning #avocado #herecomethecilantrohaters
Forget not the leftover meatloaf sandwich! First, the slice of loaf MUST be at least one-inch thick for maximum effect. Second, the bread should be squishy, not “artisanal” and crusty (this is a meatloaf sandwich, people). Third, there’s no need to get all fancy pants with the other ingredients—greens, mayo, maaaaybe some pickle slices. Fourth, break out the extra napkins. #meatloaf #sandwiches #meatloafsandwich #loaf #meatlogblog #fartisanal
If you think that grass-finished (more commonly known as “grass-fed”) beef isn’t that great, you haven’t tasted the right grass-fed beef. When you find the right supplier, grass-fed beef tastes intensely meaty, yet never greasy and the fat carries a buttery/herbal quality that blows away whatever sad shrink-wrapped steaks you’re buying from the bin at the grocery store. Find a rancher near you (eatwild.com). #grassfedbeef #beef #steak #amanapanaplan
