I don’t think you’re ready for this jelly! Do I don’t think you’re ready for this jelly! Double layer tempeh cakes marinated in shoyu sauce, grilled red onions and of course, two fried eggs on an everything bagel! With a sprinkle of pepper! I had a sriracha aioli sauce (with olive oil Mayo) prepared but opted out because it would have been overboard- according to my taste buds. I love spicy but I’m trying to simplify things and besides, I was out of Greek yogurt. If I had Greek yogurt- I would have made a fine lower cal/fat sriracha aioli! Recipe posting later today. . . . #tempeh #shoyu #everythingbagel #eggs #friedeggs #grilledonions #redonion #sodelicious #foodblogger #foodboggersofinstagram
Earlier I was writing about taking risks. Stepping Earlier I was writing about taking risks. Stepping outside of your comfort zone in order to grow. This is out of my comfort zone for sure! Not only am I new at photography, I am still exploring what my style or aesthetic is. It’s out of my comfort zone because it’s new for me. I am will step out side of my safe space and fly! What does your comfort zone look like, and what would it take to step outside of it? . . . #comforzone #risk #takerisks #foodblogger #food #foodbloggersofinstagram #foodie #blueberry #goatcheese #pear #mood
Coconut Cream Panna Cotta with Strawberry Coulis Coconut Cream Panna Cotta with Strawberry Coulis This glorious beauty is 100% plant-based using agar agar as the firming agent. I used unsweetened full-fat coconut cream, agave, agar agar, and vanilla. I so enjoyed creating and photographing this Panna Cotta. Then once the shoot was over I devoured one of them. And I was pleasantly surprised by how the agar agar turned out. Recipe will be posted later on the blog. . . . . #pannacotta #plantpasedpannacotta #plantbased #foodblogger #foodbloggersofinstagram #food #dessert #deliciousfood #nottoosweet
The Easiest 4 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies I The Easiest 4 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies I got a “2 am” spurt of inspiration. And thought, what better way to spend my insomnia than to practice recipes and food styling/photography. Just to think, I started out with an iPhone, rice cakes topped with avocado. And now I have a fancy camera and my work is steadily improving beyond my wildest dreams. Now I’m trying to work through every learning curve there is for some who has just starting out. These are my steady go-to mantras: Keep it simple. Build upon the last thing you created. Study the pros whose work you live. Practice. Be patient. Practice some more! Which brings me to these tasty treats. Oh, did I mention that these cookies are plant-based and gluten free? They are! Recipe coming to Craving The Yum soon! . . . #peanutbuttercookies #glutenfree #foodblogger #foodbloggersofinstagram #food #healthyfood #almondflour #treats #cookies #cravingtheyum
Life & Style section coming soon to Craving The Yu Life & Style section coming soon to Craving The Yum (And not in the fancy pants kind of way...🤣) Photography by Gregory Halpen Styled by Gregory Halpen The Life & Style Section on Craving The Yum, is not going to be about fanciness. Nope. I may appear to be a fancy pants but I’m not. My sister will say I’m high maintenance- and maybe she’s right! I’m just a gay guy in his 50s making his creative way through the next chapter of his life. Why am I writing in the 3rd person? Who knows. I guess it’s supposed to make it all sound, well, fancy. Life & Style Section Includes: 180 sq ft studio apartment living. Living on a budget and fixed-income (yeah, right. What budget? 🤣) and so much more. Life & Style an Craving The Yum Blog will be about authenticity, style through my eyes and what NYC living is like for a guy like me. Wait a minute! A guy guy like me? What’s that supposed to mean? Stay tuned... . . . . #foodbloggersofinstagram #foodblogger #lifeandstyle #nyc #style #photography #fancypants #imnotfancy #highmaintenance
