Cornmeal Drop Biscuits

I have several different types of cornmeal in my pantry. Finely ground, coarse ground, medium ground. I love them all. My go-to cornmeal recipe is mamaliga which is a cornmeal porridge that is very common in Romania. If you’ve had polenta then you know what I am talking about.

I’ll eventually post my mamaliga recipe one day but for now I am sharing these cornmeal biscuits! Buttery, airy, and a delightful toothsome texture from the cornmeal. I love these on the side of a wholesome stew in the wintertime.

Sweet and Spicy Chili Garlic Noodles

I had dreams of buttery, spicy, and sweet noodles and this recipe fit the bill! I initially wanted something that could be eaten like a meal in of itself but that would have meant cluttering up these simple noodles with unecessary flavors and textures and I just couldn’t stand for that. So I present these as a simple side which are quick as a flash that are perfect hot or cold, and would go along with just about any grilled protein and sauteed greens. Or heck, just make it for meal prep! [ 301 calories per serving, 46.4 g Carbs, 9.1 g Fat, 8.4 g Protein]
