I always try to make use of whatever I have at home. Some days I’m like “omg I have no food in the house, what am I going to make for dinner?” Then I kind of think about it, look around, and try to create a dish with what I have. That way I don’t have to always run to the grocery store because I’m missing several ingredients. I like to create something from nothing.

This chicken salad was a something from nothing creation.
