Croque Monsieur

August 3, 2015 by Annie Chesson 30 Comments

Hello!! I have missed you all SO much this past week! And just blogging in general. Man, I knew I loved cooking and blogging, but I didn't realize until last week how HUGE a part of my life it is. I went through blog withdraws. I had so much fun cooking my butt off on Sunday and getting all prepped for this week! It was, however, quite exhausting. I felt like I was prepping a Thanksgiving ...

Thai Meatball Lettuce Wraps

July 20, 2015 by Annie Chesson 79 Comments

I have a new obsession. And that obsession is Thai food. It all started a few months ago when Seth and I ran in the Spartan Race that I talked a little bit about here, and afterwards went out to eat with his family at a Thai restaurant in Charlotte called Basil. So before eating at this delicious restaurant, I was under the impression that I hated curry with a burning passion. Which still isn't ...

Spicy Chipotle Chickpea Burrito Bowls

July 17, 2015 by Annie Chesson 46 Comments

If I had unlimited money and could eat 10,000 calories a day without gaining a pound, I would literally eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner every single day at Chipotle or Qdoba. Let me describe my obsession to you with one story (I might have told this before....ALL MY STORIES ARE STARTING TO RUN TOGETHER). I'm going to preface for two seconds...literally every time we went out to eat in Georgia, ...

Huevos Rancheros with Grilled Salsa Verde

July 9, 2015 by Annie Chesson 33 Comments

Soooo...the vet. I talked here about how we had a vet appointment for Boone a few days ago, and we had to put him on a heavy sedative so he wouldn't freak out when we got there (like he always does). Before we went got the the vet he was completely out - super super super tired. Like to the point where he could barely get up on the couch. But right when we got there he fully woke up again and ...

I hope you guys had an AMAAAZZZINNNGGGG 4th of July! Ours was filled with lots of red, white, and blue clothes, carnival games and food, amazing fireworks, a few beers, and - unfortunately - sunburns. 'Muuuurrriiccaaaaaa. So...this Taco Skillet.

Hibachi Soup with Mushrooms and Crispy Onions

July 2, 2015 by Annie Chesson 35 Comments

You know those Japanese steak houses where they cook on that big flat top in front of you and do the exact same tricks every time? The volcano onion stack, shaping the rice into a big heart, catching the shrimp tails in their jacket pockets, and clanking their spatulas on the flat top to make beautiful Hibachi music for the entire 30 minute cooking process? I love those places. My favorite two ...

Grilled Romaine Salad with Bacon and Blue Cheese

June 25, 2015 by Annie Chesson 34 Comments

IF YOU ARE A BLUE CHEESE HATER JUST WAIT! Wait ooone second. Because Seth and I hate blue cheese. Really, really hate it. To the point where if I forget to ask the servers to leave it off my salad at a restaurant it ruins the whole thing for me. But we are obsessed with this salad. Oooooobsessed. So it started with an experiment. There is this burger at a sports bar back in our college town ...

Cold Soba Noodle Salad

June 20, 2015 by Annie Chesson 24 Comments

Can we just talk about Soba noodles for a second?? I had actually never tried them before making this recipe. I see them all over the place, though. I guess I'm jumping on the bandwagon a little late... But they are so dang good! I was definitely expecting them to taste more...healthy...than they taste. But I actually liked these Soba noodles just as much as regular pasta. Except these are way ...

Philly Cheesesteak Stuffed Peppers

June 16, 2015 by Annie Chesson 42 Comments

OH my goodness. It has been....SO LONG...since I've been able to post. Can I just tell you about my life right now? We left Georgia on June 9th and drove about 12 hours, woke up early the next morning and drove the last 4 to Kansas. The drive actually wasn't bad at all - I was dreading it but it went by pretty quick! So then we got here on Wednesday, unpacked that day and all day Thursday, ...

Slow Braised Pork Tenderloin with Roasted Garlic Aioli

June 3, 2015 by Annie Chesson 16 Comments

Remember a few weeks ago when I posted this recipe and rambled on and on about how amazing the slow roasted pork was? Then I mentioned how I was going on a mission to slow roast a million different types of meat and see what happens. So that brought me to this delicious slow braised pork! I know pork tenderloin is much leaner than the pork shoulder I used in the other recipe, so I decided ...
