Caramelized Onion and Fontina Cast Iron Pizzas

June 18, 2020 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

Caramelized Onion and Fontina Pizza with Arugula - This delicious pizza is a little bit sweet and super savory, all finished off with a peppery bite of fresh arugula! TheGarlicDiaries.com

Pizza is one of my top five favorite foods - call me basic and boring, but I LOVE IT DEEPLY. We have tried several ways to make pizza at home and achieve that crispy bottom crust without a pizza stone, but we hadn't ever had much success. Pizza stones are great, but they are giant and HEAVY, and I've never been good at transferring a pizza from the peel to the stone. I wanted an easy at-home ...

Oven Baked Fries with Lemon Garlic Dip

June 4, 2020 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Oven Baked Fries with Lemon Garlic Dip - Skip the deep frier and make these healthier fries instead! They are addicting, so satisfying, and will become a new weekly fave! TheGarlicDiaries.com

So I first recipe tested these fries probably three or four weeks ago, and I've basically made them multiple times a week since then. When I buy potatoes, I usually buy a big bag, and this is seriously the MOST delicious way to use them up! And who - srlsy WHOOOO - doesn't love a good french fry, people?? They are one of the best things the lovely people of this planet have invented. True ...

Banh Mi Turkey Burgers

June 2, 2020 by Annie Chesson 1 Comment

Banh Mi Turkey Burgers! Seriously the best turkey burger you will ever eat. So many different and delicious flavors and textures happening! TheGarlicDiaries.com

Y'all - these are legit THE best turkey burgers. Turkey burgers (and sometimes burgers in general!) can be a little blah or boring. I love adding fun variety to burgers - there is SO much you can do with them! But this is probably my favorite version I've had to date. If you've never had a Banh Mi, they are often characterized by pickled carrot (and usually radish too), jalapeno, cilantro, ...

Instant Pot Mojo Pork

April 9, 2020 by Annie Chesson 1 Comment

Instant Pot Mojo Pork! This delicious Instant Pot recipe is easy to make and creates SUCH delicious, flavorful, juicy pork! I love to serve mine with rice and beans for a complete meal. It’s a fave! TheGarlicDiaries.com

Another HUGE Instant Pot win! This mojo pork is life giving. Pork shoulder is one of my favorite things to make in the Instant Pot because it takes SO MUCH LESS time than a low and slow oven roast, and it is unbelievably juicy, tender, and delicious. The way I make pork in the Instant Pot most often is with my Carnitas recipe, but this Mojo Pork might just be my new fave. And it is super ...

February 20, 2020 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Pear, Blue Cheese, and Honey Pizzas - these babies take ZERO time to throw together, and it tastes like you are eating at a 5 star restaurant! TheGarlicDiaries.com

These pizzas are insane. Mainly thanks to the combination of two things: one - they are SO easy to make and take SO little time to prep, and two - the flavors happening here are so complex and deep. We have a lot of different things happening, and they all work together to form THE most delicious bite! It's the perfect weeknight meal, it's meatless if you're trying to get your budget down or ...

Crispy Oven Baked Salt and Vinegar Chicken Wings

January 9, 2020 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Crispy Oven Baked Salt and Vinegar Chicken Wings - These CRISPY - and I mean criiissppyyy - chicken wings all go down in the oven. No deep frying here! They have a salty and lightly vinegary flavor, and they are so crazy satisfying! #whole30 #paleo TheGarlicDiaries.com

Y'all. These chicken wings are CRISPY. Like...SUPER crispy. Crispy as in fried-level crispy. I am in love. And it all goes down in the oven! No deep frying in oil. A hot oven and a long cook time takes care of that crispy skin for you. These are designed to be a nod to salt and vinegar chips, but they don't have quite the super jaw cramping vinegar flavor that the chips do - this is more ...

December 31, 2019 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

This 25 Minute Dump and Go Taco Soup will revolutionize your healthy and CRAZY simple weeknight dinner game! It seriously doesn’t get any easier than this, and it’s so yummy! TheGarlicDiaries.com

WOW - it has been a while, internet fam. Since the week before Thanksgiving, I have posted one recipe on the blog! Between family being here for Thanksgiving and Christmas (which was time I intended to take off work), the weeks in between were a giant blur of sickness and lots of sleep-hating babies. Well, just one in particular 🙂. I wasn't planning on ghosting the blog for an entire month, ...

Roasted Carrot Pesto - Delicious over meat or as a dip for veggies, this roasted carrot pesto is a game changer! TheGarlicDiaries.com

Yesssss, yes, and YES to all the pesto. I love making fun and different pestos!
