October 31, 2017 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Pizza officially just got super easy. I'm talkin' store bought naan, store bought pesto, some cheese, sliced tomato, basil, bam. You done. And it just so happens to taste as delicious as those homemade, more complicated, and time consuming pizzas. Listen, I'm all bout dat homemade pizza. I love making pizza dough, and I love the process of everyone customizing their own pizzas just how they ...

3 Cheese Quinoa Cakes

October 27, 2017 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Can you go wrong with anything that is titled "3 cheese"? You definitely can't go wrong with these quinoa cakes, I know that. They are dense, cheesy, crispy, and super filling and hearty. Eat them as a side, or pile a few on your plate for a whole meal. They are seriously delicious! This recipe was actually originally supposed to just be three cheese quinoa...just a bowl of cheesy quinoa. Which ...

Ground Turkey Shepherd’s Pie

October 26, 2017 by Annie Chesson 26 Comments

ThisπŸ‘†πŸΌπŸ‘†πŸΌπŸ‘†πŸΌ. This right here is why I am obsessed with cold weather food. I mean, is it LITERALLY possible to get more cozy and comforting than shepherd's pie?? Hearty meat and veggies coated in a light gravy topped with creamy mashed potatoes and baked?! Um, right. I didn't think so. This is like the ultimate "bring to your friend who just had a baby" or "bring to your coworker who just had ...

Penne with Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto

October 20, 2017 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

I meeaaannnnn, I know. It looks so good you could just reach through your shiny computer screen and grab a massive fork full. Or five. Or just grab the whole bowl...who are we kidding, no one would say no to a massive bowl of pasta after a long day #amIright? That mouthwatering red "sauce" coating those beautiful little whole grain penne noodles is none other than sun-dried tomato pesto. We use ...

Open Faced Fried Egg Burgers with Green Chili Mayo

October 18, 2017 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

What? Oh, hello there. Sorry, I didn't see you for a second. I was preoccupied violently shoving five of these open faced fried egg burgers into my mouth at once and having a moment savoring the delicious perfection that is THIS BURGER. You guys...I'm mildly freaking out at the moment over how delicious these are. It is my new go-to recipe for burgers. The flavor here is OFF THE CHARTS amazing. ...

Sheet Pan Pork Tenderloin with Apple Cider Sauce

October 16, 2017 by Annie Chesson 10 Comments

It's the middle of October, the leaves are starting to darken into oranges, yellows, and reds, the weather is cooling down a bit, and it even smells like fall outside. Do you know what I mean when I say that fall has a smell? I feel like every season has a different smell. Fall smells crisp and fresh and kind of like rain. Which most likely either makes you think I'm cray cray ooorrrr you know ...

Crock Pot Meatball Sub Soup

October 13, 2017 by Annie Chesson 5 Comments

Crock pot season, crock pot season, crock pot seaassoonnnn! I'm actually not the biggest fan of crock pots, but I do love them for the coziness. You really only break out your crock pot to cook fall and winter food. Fall and winter food is cozy. Thus...crock pots are cozy. See the logical trail? My only issue with crock pots is that I don't like to use them if the recipe would be just as good and ...

Teriyaki Chicken Noodle Bowls

October 11, 2017 by Annie Chesson 4 Comments

Sometimes, efficiency is just crucial in life, you know? Work might be crazy, you might have a bunch of kids running around the house, you might have a million little to-do list items ticking through your head. On those days/in those situations, you really need easy, efficient, quick, and yummy (because yumminess is key) dinners. Let's take this morning for example. I was multitasking as ...

Healing Chicken Noodle Stew

October 4, 2017 by Annie Chesson 6 Comments

This stew could not be more perfect for the current weather in Kansas right now. It has been raining for two days, and it is just wonderfully comfy and cozy. Rainy days are awful if you are trying to run errands and be productive, but if you are staying inside all or most of the day? Pure bliss. Rainy days also aren't great for blog photography because no bright natural light = no bueno. But they ...

Pork in Garlic Sauce

October 2, 2017 by Annie Chesson 5 Comments

Pork in Garlic Sauce is one of my all time favorite take out dishes. It's probs between this and lo mein for the top slot- it's hard to beat a good lo mein! But if I'm not ordering lo mein, you best believe there will be a steaming hot container of Pork in Garlic Sauce knocking on my door in 20-30 minutes πŸ‘…πŸ‘…πŸ‘…. The creation of this recipe is something I have toiled over for quite some time. I ...
