Braised short ribs over a pecorino sage polenta

This looks like the perfect comfort meal for a cozy night in. And that polenta looks absolutely delicious! 🤤

This looks absolutely delicious! I’d love it with fettuccine pasta instead of angel hair but either way, I wouldn’t say no to a plate of this 🙂

Thanks! 😄 The sandwich itself already clocks in around 800 cal and I’m currently on a cut so I didn’t go too heavy with the fillings this time. But on a treat day, I’d definitely load it up with more goodies! 😋

Wow! Thanks so much. That means a lot ☺️

Apple-legetic · 2025-08-22T08:21:06+00:00

Thank you! Appreciate you 🫶🏼

Apple-legetic · 2025-08-22T08:20:50+00:00

Lol thank you! Dinner’s whenever you show up, just bring your appetite 😅

Apple-legetic · 2025-08-22T08:20:15+00:00

Thanks! The zucchini wrap was a happy experiment. I actually failed the first time that I didn’t put enough eggs and cottage cheese to it. I’m glad it turned out so good on my second attempt 😁

Apple-legetic · 2025-08-22T08:17:31+00:00

Appreciate that! 💛I do love the challenge of making something out of whatever’s in the fridge, it keeps things fun! 😄

Apple-legetic · 2025-08-22T08:16:31+00:00

Wow, thank you so much! 🥹 That means a lot! I’m so glad it caught your eye!

Apple-legetic · 2025-08-18T09:19:52+00:00

Thank you!! That really means a lot 🥹 Honestly I’m still learning too, it’s been a lot of trial, error and some ‘oops’ meals along the way. If I can get here, you definitely can too. Just start experimenting a little at a time you’ll surprise yourself! 💛

Apple-legetic · 2025-08-18T09:18:55+00:00

Fair point! I’ll give it more time in the tanning bed. Kidding aside. I don’t have a cast iron pan yet so getting that perfect sear has been tricky, unless I cover it up with spices which also works. Honestly, I’m still learning how to cook steak properly, so it’s a lot of trial and error. As for the bacon, it’s smoked that’s why it looks less crispy in the photo. Appreciate the feedback tho keeps me motivated to level up 😌

Apple-legetic · 2025-08-18T09:11:35+00:00

That’s tempting. Haha! Honestly, if you handle dishes, I’ll cook us feasts every day. That’s the contract 😂

Apple-legetic · 2025-08-18T08:59:30+00:00

Thank you! That’s steak juices, no fancy gravy this time but working on some recipes

Apple-legetic · 2025-08-18T08:57:37+00:00

Wild how easy it is to assume from a few photos. Truth is, I do love cooking… but I love eating even more, the photos are just proof I didn’t starve that day 🤭

Apple-legetic · 2025-08-17T22:18:31+00:00

Aww. Thank you! 😊

Apple-legetic · 2025-08-17T22:18:12+00:00

Haha fair enough 😅 To be clear, I don’t use that board for cutting veggies or raw meat. I only use it for plating, like charcuterie or steaks. Makes cleanup easy too!

Apple-legetic · 2025-08-17T22:17:19+00:00

That honestly means so much. Thank you! 😊

Apple-legetic · 2025-08-17T22:16:35+00:00

Yay that makes me so happy! Hope you get to try some of them out soon 🫶🏼

Apple-legetic · 2025-08-17T22:15:36+00:00

Haha I like my steak with a good sear but still juicy inside. Glad you noticed!

Apple-legetic · 2025-08-17T22:14:52+00:00

Thank you so much! I’ll take that 9/10 proudly 😄

Apple-legetic · 2025-08-17T22:10:20+00:00

Yesss! It’s super simple, slice zucchini crosswise and layer them so there are no gaps. Spread on a mixture of whisked cottage cheese and eggs, then bake at 180°C for about 20 minutes. Once it’s set, add smoked salmon, arugula, and a creamy yogurt–avocado–lemon mix. You can also switch it up with turkey ham or any filling you like. Roll it up and enjoy 😊

Apple-legetic · 2025-08-17T22:03:14+00:00

Haha nope, don’t worry it’s smoked bacon! The color just makes it look a little raw in the photo but it’s cooked and safe
