Will do! I’m in RA training right now so I can’t go out to get raw materials, but when I have the chance I have been itching to experiment with cake for a while!
Sorry about the inactivity here. Like I said before, things will kick up again once I have access to my ricecooker, which is currently in storage down at the Savannah College of Art and Design. School starts soon, and I can’t wait to get cookin for you all!
What I had for dinner tonight!
Some jasmine rice with a little lemon juice, some peas, and I cooked an egg mixed it on in.

This recipe cost me about six bucks to make, and I made like a weeks worth of food.
Here’s what you’ll need!
I have never even heard of that, but I’m going to the store tomorrow to get taco ingredients and I’ll see if I can find it!
I had a serious need for cheese today, so I decided to make some mac and cheese! This is probably one of the easiest things you could ever make in a rice cooker ever ever ever. Like honestly, it could be illegal it’s so easy to make.
But anyway, on with the recipe!
Here is a Rice Cooker Quinoa Casserole! Kind of. It’s adapted from a dish my brother makes often for himself.
I found quinoa (キヌア) at my local grocery store! It’s a small package and somewhat pricey, but the other ingredients are not so expensive, so it works out well.
Quinoa can be cooked in a rice cooker on normal “white rice” settings. For each 1 part of quinoa, you need to add 2 parts water. This package is 150g, (about 1 cup in American measurements) so I added 2 cups of water. The end result is what you see above (though blurry) in the rice cooker. It’s fluffy!
In a separate glass dish, I put half a chopped onion, 2 chopped tomatoes, and most of one chopped red bell pepper, one yellow bell pepper (パプリカ), and a few small green peppers (ピーマン). Added to that about half of a container of salsa (it was half because I ate the other half for breakfast…DON’T JUDGE ME! XD).
I mixed the quinoa with the vegetable/salsa mixture. After that, I cut a lime in half and, using one half, squeezed lime juice over the top to add more moisture and some more flavor.
After that, I put the casserole dish in my microwave oven on the oven setting at 180 degrees Celsius (about 350 degrees Fahrenheit) for 20 minutes.
The last picture on the right is the final product!
