This really is the best Chicken and Rice Soup Ever! At least out of all the ones I've ever tried. What makes it so over-the-top-amazing? Two things in particular. 1. Rather than buying chicken stock, we just cook a whole chicken in water and that becomes the broth. We need cooked chicken anyway for the soup, why waste the flavorful water that the chicken simmers in?? So it has a super, SUPER ...
Frozen Strawberry Lemonade
Lemonade is one of those things that automatically brings the word "refreshing" to my mind. It's the perfect drink for spring and summer, and is made even more perfect (if that's possible) by adding in a box of pureed strawberries. Strawberries, in my opinion, are one of the best things about spring. They are in season right now so they are perfectly juicy and sweet - a perfect contrast to the ...
Peanut Lime Shrimp
I'm not sure if you ever have these weeks, but the last three days have been so busy and exhausting that Seth and I just haven't had the time or energy to clean our apartment. So it got messy. Really messy. Especially the kitchen. And when I come home to a messy kitchen, it makes me just want to completely stay away from it and not cook (because that means I have to clean it first). And then ...
Portion Your Fridge!
There is a constant lack of snacks in our fridge and pantry. When we go grocery shopping, I never really think to buy stuff for snacks; I just get food to make dinner and assume there will be random left over ingredients to snack on throughout the week. False. Seth and I are frequent fridge and pantry visitors - walking over in the search for snacks and rarely finding anything ...
Healthy Chocolate Pudding with Almond, Graham Cracker Crumb
Ahh, healthy desserts. There is nothing better than indulging in a rich, decadent dessert that you can eat completely guilt free. Especially when it's chocolate. Because chocolate is pretty much the best thing ever. As you can see here, here, here, here, and here, I'm pretty partial to chocolate... Whoops. That's a lot of chocolate recipes. I'm not even ashamed. Especially when they are super ...
Butternut Squash Soup with Curry Roasted Chickpeas
Before I begin, I have a tip for this recipe. When you are transferring the leftovers to your Tupperwares after the soup is finished, try as hard as possible not to spill half the soup onto the counter/all over the front of your shirt and jeans and then spend 20 minutes cleaning up as your dog eats half the leftovers. Okay now that we covered that, moving on! This soup tastes as good as it looks! ...
Baby Kale, Farro Salad with Creamy Balsamic Vinaigrette
Do you ever watch the show Top Chef? If you do, the name Richard Blais might sound familiar to you. He came in second place on his season (still bitter about that) and came back to compete again on Top Chef All Stars, which he won. Anyway, he is my favorite person that has ever been on that show - I love him. Well I found out that he has a restaurant in Atlanta, which is only an hour and a half ...
Baked Whole Wheat Pancake with Berry Orange Compote
It's almost Easter! I have very fond memories of Easter from my childhood - egg hunts, going to church on Easter morning (I did not, however, enjoy the floral print dresses and MASSIVE bows that I was forced to wear every year), beautiful spring weather, the Easter bunny - who, by the way, I swear I saw hopping across the yard a few different Easters while I was growing up ...
Broccoli and Brussels Sprout Salad with Citrus Vinaigrette
It's always fun when creating a salad to try and find that perfect balance of flavors and textures - crunchy and soft, salty and sweet, etc...That delicious balance is the mark of a great salad, in my opinion. This Broccoli and Brussels Sprout Salad is a perfect example of that! You get the crunch from the broccoli, the salty from the bacon and sunflower seeds, and the chewy/sweet from the ...
Homemade Chicken Stock
I have been meaning to make homemade chicken stock for years now and have never quite gotten around to it. The convenience of the boxed chicken stock has always been too tempting for me and I just end up getting that instead! But if you have ever watched Ina Garten on the Food Network, you have heard her say (about 8 million times to be exact) that homemade chicken stock makes all the ...
