Happy Tuesday everyone!

Giant Giant Clam Chowder and Bread Bowl; recipe created for a Super Animal Royale Cookbook!

When we decided to bring Momnoms back, we thought that it would be really cool to go through one of my favorite games and start making the food from it.

I had asked the devs to do an official cookbook in the past, but it wasn’t something that they could do at the time, so I’m just taking it into my own hands and creating the cookbook myself.

This is a cute, super free game (where I married my husband) and they just came out with a new update. In that update there were many new dishes added and the ability to see what is happening IN the restaurants themselves! It’s very cool.

We decided since it’s so cold that we needed to do something warm and spicy, so we headed over to Super Sealand and stole the Giant Giant Clam Chowder; obviously it has a little heat to make it even better for those long game nights!
