Summer Fresh Corn and Zucchini Chowder

June 11, 2018 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

Alright, year-round soup lovers, this one's for you! The only thing "wintery" about this soup is the fact that it's soup...everything else screams summery goodness! The super fresh corn and zucchini particularly. The sweet pop of that fresh corn...you can't beat it! Frozen corn is a great substitute in those cold months when fresh isn't available, but the difference between fresh corn and frozen ...

Golden Cauliflower Soup with Rice

May 14, 2018 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

I really didn't consciously intend to have two cauliflower recipes in a row...it seems a bit redundant...but you can forgive me, right? Especially when I bring you this delicious soup that is loaded up with roasted cauliflower, some russet potato, leek, garlic, and turmeric? Ima go with yes, you forgive me. This soup is pure comfort. I am one of those people who eats soup all year round no ...

Spiralized Sweet Potato Taco Skillet

May 7, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Tacos are life. I've been having a consistent taco craving fooorr...I wanna say...approximately 15 years. It's never ending - I'm always down for a taco. Luckily, on whole 30, a taco craving is actually pretty easily satiated. There are a lot of healthy substitutes where you ditch the cheese and tortilla but still get your taco fix. Lettuce wraps = perf. Taco bowls (with cauliflower rice) = ...

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 Chicken and Wild Rice Soup

April 11, 2018 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

But...comfort food πŸ‘†πŸΌπŸ‘†πŸΌπŸ‘†πŸΌ. How's the weather in your area? It's still FREEZING COLD HERE. In Kansas' defense, it is actually supposed to get super warm today...we'll see. But for the last billion years (potential slight exaggeration), it has been WINTER. So cold. Like...wait...it's April 11th. I feel like, if we're being totally fair, it should have started getting springy in March. YET - here we ...

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 ...

Instant Pot Short Ribs

March 26, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Ah, Instant Pot. So nice to see you again - it's been a while! I was very excited to be able to incorporate you into Whole 30. If I ate things like you every night, I could do Whole 30 on a permanent basis. **Switching to you, readers, instead of continuing to be creepy and address only the short ribs.** Short ribs were a first for me as of this month while doing Whole 30, and I am sad at the ...

Coconut Spaghetti Squash Noodle Bowls

March 23, 2018 by Annie Chesson 1 Comment

One good thing about Whole 30 is that it resulted in my experimental use of spaghetti squash! I've never tried it before this month, and I absolutely love it! Now...does it taste identical to a big, steaming bowl of pasta? Nah girl. But does it taste delicious and resemble pasta a bit? Cha girl...it does. At least I think so. It's extra good in this recipe because the "noodles" are totally ...

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 ...
