Caprese Stuffed Avocado Cups with Balsamic Reduction (Keto)

April 19, 2019 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Well this is literally my obsession above all else. I eat it for lunch at least half the days of the week, and when I'm not eating it, I'm missing it. It is creamy and rich from the avocado, cheesy, smooth, and delicious from the fresh mozzarella cheese, bright and acidic from the tomatoes + the vinaigrette, and slightly sweet from the balsamic reduction. It hits every taste bud in your WHOLE ...

April 15, 2019 by Annie Chesson 39 Comments

Um, excuse me - hello, beautiful. You are perfection in every sense of the word. You are absurdly crispy on top, fall-apart moist and juicy in the middle, and full of delicious, fatty goodness. I AM IN LOVE. I have only every eaten pork belly in super fancy restaurant situations, so I figured it would be crazy expensive to buy at the store. But for two big chunks of pork belly - two and a ...

April 12, 2019 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

This salad. is. life. It miiiiiight be my ALL TIME favorite salad ever. I no joke ate it every day for lunch for weeks, and the only reason I stopped is because we ran out of pickled beets and I kept forgetting to buy more. I keep a giant box of spring green mix, a giant box of arugula, a bag of red onions and lemons in the pantry, and a Costco pack of goat cheese in the fridge at all times so ...

April 5, 2019 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Picture this: you are craving nachos (because who doesn't on the daily?), but you don't necessarily want to load up on a bunch of fried tortilla chips and make yourself feel less than awesome for the rest of the evening. So instead, you cook up a delicious nacho filling with ground turkey, black beans, and taco seasoning. And then you take that heavenly mixture and load it into some lightly ...

Lentil Curry with a Sunny Side Up Egg

April 3, 2019 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

Currrryyyyyy. Come to me with all your cozy, warm, spiced goodness. COME TO ME. Curry is one of my all time favorite foods! Usually that's more along the lines of Thai curry, and this one is more of an Indian curry, but still - regardless of what type of curry deliciousness is happening in my bowl, I am here for it. Usually I make curry with just veggies and (usually) chicken with a coconut ...
