I'm going to be real with you guys right now....this corn chowder is the bomb. I am kiiiiiind of obsessed and in love with everything about it: The thick, creamy, luxurious texture that comes from the addition of roux in the last five minutes. The layers and layers of mouthwatering flavor coming from the bacon, onions, garlic, carrots, celery, and jalapeno. The tender, hearty potatoes that ...
Ultimate Secret Ingredient Garlic Mashed Potatoes
Because.......Thanksgiving. Mashed potatoes are just a staple. THEY JUST ARE. If you don't have mashed potatoes on your Thanksgiving spread, I am secretly judging you right now. Just kidding.......maybe. So naturally, since Thanksgiving is less than two weeks away, I had to post the mother of all mashed potato recipes. The title of this post = Ultimate Secret Ingredient Garlic Mashed ...
“One Sheet” Brown Sugar, Dijon Chicken
You know how one pot meals are basically the best things EVER? This is exactly like a one pot meal, but it's a one sheet meal instead! You throw everything onto one baking sheet, bake for thirty to forty minutes, and dig in! SO easy. The best part about this recipe, however, isn't the simplicity. The best part is the flavor that comes from the brown sugar and Dijon mustard. Oh....my goodness. ...
Crispy Garlic Smashed Potatoes
Ah, crispy, garlic-y, salty, potato-y goodness. Can I just eat you every day for the rest of my life? Seriously though...who in the world doesn't love potatoes?

And if you are saying no to this question you fall into one of ...
Mustard Chive Potato Salad
Happy Saturday! It's not a super happy Saturday for us because we are packing and cleaning ALL day...ugh. I really very strongly dislike packing. It's not so bad at first when there are some big easy things to pack, like a bookshelf or a TV stand. But then you look around and see a million little random things and it looks like you have made no progress. Seth's parents are coming in today to ...
Crock Pot Pepper Beef Stew
It has been absolutely FREEZING in Georgia this week! Well, freezing compared to the sixty degree winter we've had so far this year. I've been spoiled...spoiled bad. Next winter we will be in Kansas, and I'm pretty sure it will be nowhere near sixty degrees in February...so I'm trying to enjoy it while I can! This stew was the perfect meal to counteract the bitterly cold weather we have been ...
Mexican Twice Baked Potatoes
Twice baked potatoes...they are seriously some of the best things you can possibly eat. One of my all time faves. Well, this Mexican version is a different and equally delicious take on the classic twice baked potato. Instead of using bacon, it uses lean ground beef that is seasoned with taco spices. It uses Greek yogurt as a substitute for the cream you would usually use to mash the potatoes in ...
