Whole 30 Cashew Chicken

November 14, 2019 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Whole 30 Cashew Chicken - This is SO much better than takeout (not to mention a million times healthier), but it has all those classic flavors you love so much! TheGarlicDiaries.com

Chinese takeout is one of my biggest guilty pleasures. On extra lazy nights, my go-to is one of two things: pizza or takeout. Both so yummy and both so satisfying! Howevvvver, there is a caveat to this! I always feel kinda gross and heavy afterwards. My skin feels greasy after eating the greasy Chinese food, and I'm always so dang thirsty from all that sodium. Now, don't get me wrong, I ...

Instant Pot Coconut Curry Butternut Squash Soup

October 29, 2019 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Instant Pot Coconut Curry Butternut Squash Soup - I’m not usually a fan of butternut squash soup, but this Thai version is DREAMS. Creamy, luscious, and full of whole foods and healthy fats! #whole30 #paleo TheGarlicDiaries.com

So, butternut squash soup. Let's discuss for a minute. It's SUCH a popular fall dish - you literally see recipes for it left and right all season long. I've tried and tried and tried to make it, but I can't ever get super excited about it. It's always just a little "meh." I don't WANT to feel this way because I strive to be obsessed with all things fall (I LOVE FALL), but I just can't seem to ...

Roasted Corn with Cumin Brown Butter

August 22, 2019 by Annie Chesson 4 Comments

Roasted Corn with Cumin Brown Butter - TheGarlicDiaries.com

Before I address any of this, can we all work on compiling a list of every single food item that we could possible slather with brown butter and then get back to each other? That would be v helpful. Now about this corn. Have you ever had roasted corn? How about corn that is generously rolled around in brown butter after cooking? If you answered "no" to one or both of these things, ...

Brownie Batter Hummus - TheGarlicDiaries.com

If you don't want to dive face first into this bowl, all spoons remaining safely in their drawers, then who even are you?

Like, as in it's made with chickpeas. šŸ‘†šŸ¼ That right there is. What alternate universe have we stepped into here? Whatever it ...

My Favorite Spice Rub (amazing on meat and seafood!)

August 13, 2019 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

The BEST spice rub ever! Absolutely amazing on any meat and seafood! I even like to use it on veggies. TheGarlicDiaries.com

I love this spice rub so much that I keep a giant jar of it right next to my stove. It is awarded place next to my most used kitchen items: salt and olive oil. That's how much I use it and how much I love it! Anytime I'm cooking any type of meat or seafood (or even veggies!), you can pretty well bet that this spice rub is getting all up in that situation šŸ’ƒšŸ» It is savory, complex, and very ...

Fresh Watermelon Mint Pops

August 1, 2019 by Annie Chesson 4 Comments

I'm sorry, give me a quick sec, I'm still recovering from the slap of summer that just hit me across the face with these watermelon pops. I think I'm good now... Let's talk. These popsicles are pure summer - they use WATERMELON (helloooo) which is the epitome of summer if you ask me, and they are frozen, frosty treats, which help cool you off on those hot hot hooooot summer days. They ...
