Cocoa and Chili Crusted Steak with Jalapeno Chimichurri

March 12, 2018 by Annie Chesson 1 Comment

So I'm sure you have seen lots of those meal delivery ads for Hello Fresh, Blue Apron, and other similar companies, right? They're all the rage right now, and I can fully see why - SUPER convenient. Seth and I tried one a few years ago for one week just for fun to see if the food was any good. It was a fun week, but we still prefer just coming up with our own dinners! In February, when I was in ...

Roasted Root Vegetable Soup with Fried Sage Leaves

March 9, 2018 by Annie Chesson 4 Comments

I'm trying to make the best of the fact that it's still wintery here in Kansas. Whenever it gets to this time of year and spring is so close I can almost taste it, I start to LOSE MA MIND. I don't want to be a negative Nancy over here, but I freaking hate cold weather. Winter itself has some nice perks: Christmas, coziness, and cold weather food, but the cold weather itself makes me want to curl ...

Roasted Chicken and Veggie Bowls with Cashew Curry Sauce

March 5, 2018 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

Holy cashew sauce, if you follow me on Instagram and have been keeping up with my stories documenting our Whole 30 journey, you have been overloaded with mass amounts of cashew curry sauce. It probably has you wondering...am I obsessed? Do I eat anything else other than the cashew curry sauce? Do I have some sort of problem that leads to me eating this sauce on everything for every meal? Answers: ...

Creamy Vegan Cashew Curry Sauce

March 2, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Hold the phone, I just died. THIS SAUCE GIVES ME ALL THE FEELS. It is... Impossibly creamy Rich Loaded with warm, spiced curry flavor Literally delicious on anything and everything your mind can fathom pouring it on Here's the thing - I enjoy dairy a lot. I like the richness that cream, milk, and cheese brings to a dish. So I was thinking that part of paleo and Whole 30 would be a ...

Fried Egg Turkey Burgers with Sweet Potato “Buns”

February 28, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Whole 30 day one is in the books, and we are makin' our way through day two right now! I think I'll have less of those Whole 30 symptoms that other people experience (like the "hangover" and super tired/pissy days at the beginning) because I was doing paleo for several weeks before this, so my body is used to this style of eating for the most part. I will say, however, that the fact that honey is ...

Instant Pot Chicken Poblano Soup

February 16, 2018 by Annie Chesson 13 Comments

Soups are one of my all time favorite things to cook. There is so much versatility, and you can make them SO PAINFULLY delicious when you add a bunch of yummy flavor combinations. There are days where I'm craving the simplicity of a straight up chicken noodle soup, but most of the time I like to make soups that are a little more unique and just bursting with a slap-you-across-the-face amount of ...

Instant Pot Curry Rice with Almonds

February 13, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

OH MY GOSH I'M SORRY DON'T HATE ME FOR BEING SUPER MIA FOR THE LAST MILLION WEEKS. That spontaneous trip to North Carolina totally threw off my blogging schedule, and after that I basically went directly to Las Vegas to visit my brother and sister in law, and I just got back from that trip yesterday. I'M SORRY! I have felt slightly guilty about it in the back of my mind for the last few weeks as ...

One Pot Smoky Lentil Stew

January 17, 2018 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

Do you want to know what happened in Kansas today? They closed schools because of EXTREME COLD. Like...no snow...no ice...no dangerous driving conditions...just cold weather. The concern is that they don't want kids waiting outside for the buses when it's like negative ten degrees. So hopefully that gives you a nice frigid visual of the  weather outside right now. Growing up in North Carolina ...

Hot Cheesy Corn Dip

January 15, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Okay, I mean...let's just be real with each other for a second. Is there anyone out there who doesn't have an emotionally intimate moment with their computer screen when they hear words like hot+cheesy+corn+dip in one title? How could this dip possibly not be the most delicious chip topper ever when it's cheesy, creamy, and loaded with sweet kernels of corn? If I'm being honest, I could go to TOWN ...
