Blackened Chicken with Avocado Cream

May 2, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

I think the world would be a better place if we could eat some type of delicious sauce on everything. Are you with me on this? Sauces make everything SO YUMMY. Whether it be a chipotle sauce on your sandwich, a cheese sauce on your burrito, a bearnaise sauce on your steak (we just went so fancy [except I had to google how to spell bearnaise, so I think that disqualifies my fanciness there]), or an ...

Instant Pot Turkey Spaghetti

May 1, 2018 by Annie Chesson 10 Comments

Hello, strangers! We are finally home and settled from our big East Coast adventure. Seth had two weeks of post-deployment leave, so we headed down to North Carolina to visit family and friends for a week, and then for our second week, we left Ford in North Carolina with Seth's parents and headed off on our own for another week. We left on a Friday, drove to Charleston and stayed there until ...

Instant Pot Cheesy Turkey Taco Pasta

April 4, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Okay! We are pressing play on the Instant Pot series that I had to interrupt with Whole 30 goodness. So put your Instant Pot pants back on again, because I've got this deliciousness plus a handful of others comin' your way! It definitely wasn't ideal to start my Instant Pot series and then cut it off in the middle but...#planningfail. My B. This delicious, and cheesy, might I add, turkey taco ...

Cocoa and Chili Crusted Steak with Jalapeno Chimichurri

March 12, 2018 by Annie Chesson 1 Comment

So I'm sure you have seen lots of those meal delivery ads for Hello Fresh, Blue Apron, and other similar companies, right? They're all the rage right now, and I can fully see why - SUPER convenient. Seth and I tried one a few years ago for one week just for fun to see if the food was any good. It was a fun week, but we still prefer just coming up with our own dinners! In February, when I was in ...

Instant Pot Chicken Poblano Soup

February 16, 2018 by Annie Chesson 13 Comments

Soups are one of my all time favorite things to cook. There is so much versatility, and you can make them SO PAINFULLY delicious when you add a bunch of yummy flavor combinations. There are days where I'm craving the simplicity of a straight up chicken noodle soup, but most of the time I like to make soups that are a little more unique and just bursting with a slap-you-across-the-face amount of ...

Instant Pot Curry Rice with Almonds

February 13, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

OH MY GOSH I'M SORRY DON'T HATE ME FOR BEING SUPER MIA FOR THE LAST MILLION WEEKS. That spontaneous trip to North Carolina totally threw off my blogging schedule, and after that I basically went directly to Las Vegas to visit my brother and sister in law, and I just got back from that trip yesterday. I'M SORRY! I have felt slightly guilty about it in the back of my mind for the last few weeks as ...

Hot Cheesy Corn Dip

January 15, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Okay, I mean...let's just be real with each other for a second. Is there anyone out there who doesn't have an emotionally intimate moment with their computer screen when they hear words like hot+cheesy+corn+dip in one title? How could this dip possibly not be the most delicious chip topper ever when it's cheesy, creamy, and loaded with sweet kernels of corn? If I'm being honest, I could go to TOWN ...

20 Minute Korean Ground Turkey Bowls

January 4, 2018 by Annie Chesson 17 Comments

Talk about a super fast, super easy, super yummy dinner πŸ‘†πŸΌπŸ‘†πŸΌπŸ‘†πŸΌ. This right here, friends! If there were tickets to the land of dinners that are zero fuss but level ten deliciousness, come together in under thirty minutes, and stay yummy for days in your fridge? That ticket would have "20 Minute Korean Ground Turkey Bowls" stamped across the front in big, fat, obnoxious letters. There's ...

Microwave Mac and Cheese in a Mug

December 20, 2017 by Annie Chesson 1 Comment

It's official. My life is changed forever now that I can have a piping hot mug of delicious mac and cheese in five minutes FLAT. No joke on that five minutes - the pasta and water cook in the microwave for four minutes, during which you grate your cheddar cheese. The mug comes out of the microwave, gets a quick stir, the cheese and half and half get thrown in, and after another thirty seconds in ...

Peppermint Hot Chocolate Cake Mix Cookies

December 18, 2017 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

Um, hello. Remember last week when I posted this Peppermint Bark recipe and went on and on about how I can't bake in the slightest? STILL TRUE but makes the creation of these cookies that much more miraculous. I mean, I 100% cheated by using cake mix, but I'm okay with that. Cheating is highly necessary for me when it comes to baking. On top of the chocolate cake mix that we use as the base for ...
