Curry White Bean Dip

November 10, 2017 by Annie Chesson 6 Comments

Are you ready for quite possibly the easiest little appetizer/party food/snack ever? This white bean dip takes TOPS five minutes to make. Everything just gets dumped into a food processor and whirled around to smooth, mouthwatering perfection. SO easy it’s not even fair! What will you use your extra not-prepping-complicated-appetizers-and-snacks time doing? Sitting down with a cup of coffee? ...

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 ...

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. ...

Goat Cheese, Caramelized Onion, and Pine Nut Toasts

October 9, 2017 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Ima have to make this one short today, friends. Today has been busy and crazy, and little Mr. Ford has been a high maintenance little nugget. Fussy, fussy, fussy any time I try and rock him to sleep. After asking a bunch of people for advice, it turns out that the magic trick is to just stand up, walk him around, and sway/bounce him. Apparently he just hates sitting and being rocked to sleep with ...

Roasted Sweet Potato Hummus

October 6, 2017 by Annie Chesson 1 Comment

Welp, I basically just had the best day of my life. Why am I posting this at 9:30 pm? Because I was busy having the best day of my life. Allow me to elaborate. Let us travel back to Tuesday morning. My doorbell rang, and there was a lady delivering flowers to me for my birthday. I take them from said lovely flower lady, go inside, and read the note. They are from my husband, and the note says for ...

Chipotle Chicken Chili

September 27, 2017 by Annie Chesson 1 Comment

Let's go to a chili crawl and eat allllllll tha chilis. Have you ever heard of a chili crawl? I hadn't heard of one until this past weekend when there was one going on in town. Basically all the restaurants in this one area all made chili, and you would go from restaurant to restaurant trying the different variations and voting for the best one. Doesn't that sound like fun?! In my wildest ...

One Skillet Beef and Cheese Enchiladas

June 14, 2017 by Annie Chesson 5 Comments

These enchiladas are so much fun...everything - e.v.e.r.y.t.h.i.n.g - is made in the same skillet! The filling is made in the skillet, the sauce is made in the skillet, and the enchiladas bake in the skillet. That means a few different things...1 - You can feel super cool and efficient. 2 - You have way less cleanup...way less. 3 - Layers of flaaaava. P.S. I am done buying canned enchilada ...

Chipotle Sweet Potato and Chickpea Burgers

June 5, 2017 by Annie Chesson 8 Comments

WHEW this weekend was crazy! We had family here from Friday until today, and we constantly had stuff going on. (This was for Seth and I's baby shower this past weekend in case you didn't read my last post.) It was a good crazy, though! Lots of family was here, so we got to catch up with a bunch of people and spend some good quality time with everyone. The shower was fun, too! It was super chill ...

S’mores Rice Krispies Treats

June 2, 2017 by Annie Chesson 8 Comments

I am sitting in a super cute coffee shop right now sipping a drink that I'm not even sure you could call "coffee" with its amount of sugar. It's called a Snickers Mocha...and it tastes like a melted snickers bar. And I get it so often that this one was free since I built up so many rewards. Something to brag about? Probably not...but it's so addictively delicious. For those of you who work from ...

Twenty Minute Refried Beans

May 30, 2017 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

OH MY GOSH LIFE. I have been hardcore absent from my blogging world for so long. We were in the last few weeks of the school year, and it was my last year of teaching since the baby is coming soon (yay!), so I really wanted to soak up those last few weeks and stay totally focused on enjoying every minute of them. Also, I was busy - hi, making finals for four different grade levels is time ...
