Cooking is hard when life is crazy. I've been told that no one truly understands what "busy" really means until they have kids, and maybe one day I'll agree with that when I have multiple kids, but I still feel like life can get pretty crazy right now. Between teaching, helping with the play, and blogging, sometimes it feels like the days are just going non stop! And that definitely makes cooking ...
Herbed Mixed Berry Salad
Do you guys find yourself craving healthy, fresh things like fruit and salad if you've had a few days of unhealthy eating? This happens to me biiiiiig time. If I've had some meals over the last few days that aren't exactly packed with nutrition (i.e. pizza...burgers...nah mean?), I end up having this deep desire for crunchy, fresh salads and bright, tangy fruit. That was me this weekend. On ...
Crock Pot Moroccan Lentil Soup [Vegan]
I really need to make and post more Crock Pot recipes. Crock Pot meals are so much fun...they require so little work when you throw everything into the Crock Pot, and it's so awesome to have dinner all ready to go in the evening, especially when you know it's been simmering away all day! It's kind of hard to come up with Crock Pot recipes, though. I am never super confident that my cook times ...
Garlic Butter Chicken Thighs
I mean, big surprise - garlic. Garlic is so goooooooodddd (hence blog title), and it's an injustice to food not to use it in every single recipe you ever make for the rest of your life. At least that's the logical conclusion I've come to. The grocery store I shop at, Dillon's, carries these bags of garlic, and the bag is filled with like 4-pack vacuum sealed pouches of garlic. Already peeled and ...
Turkey Burger Lettuce Wraps
CHEESEBURGERS OCCUPY 99% OF MY THOUGHTS. All day long. I'm at work...cheeseburgers. I'm teaching a class and someone mentions lunch...cheeseburgers. Someone mentions the color yellow...cheese...cheeseburgers. Someone mentions reading...cheeseburgers. It does not have to be remotely relevant, but somehow my mind finds a way to get to cheeseburger. Thank you, little human growing in my belly, for ...
Marinated Pork and Pineapple Kabobs
Okay, before we start, let's just acknowledge that I am posting a recipe for a GRILLED pork and pineapple. And the pork is marinated in a puree of mango (and some other stuff). And this is happening in February. The dead of winter. So before you go on thinking I'm cray cray, just keep in mind that I know this is a totally inappropriate recipe for winter, and it's screaming summer through your ...
21 Day Fix Turkey Chili
It’s winter. Chili is a must. There’s just something about making and eating chili during winter specifically that makes my whole body just so happy 😀. It’s a soothing process. Even more so than other stews and soups, but in a different way! Chili is such a hearty, meaty comfort food...and bonus: you are left with leftovers that get better and better in the fridge (one of my favorite parts of ...
Kale Pesto
Pesto is just one of those things that makes anything taste awesome. If you are looking for a way to flavor up a boring dish, throw some pesto in there, people! The uses are endless...a few spoonfuls in your stir fry, a dollop on top of your bowl of soup, an addition to cream sauce, eaten straight out of your fridge with a spoon...ENDLESS! One of my personal favorite ways to use pesto is in a ...
Broccoli Cheddar Brown Rice Skillet
Why is the combination of broccoli and cheddar SO good? I guess that asks the question why any famous pair is so delicious...seafood and lemon, pork and apples, tomato soup and grilled cheese, strawberries and chocolate? Pepperoni pizza and pregnant women? Maybe that's just me, but pizza is bae right now. BAE 😍. But for reals, broccoli and cheddar. What up with that?! Any time you mix broccoli ...
Super Simple Coconut Lime Quinoa
This is officially my new favorite way to eat quinoa. Quinoa is probably the thing I make most on repeat at my house. It is so good for you, a perfect side for pretty much anything, and it tastes awesome! I also like the texture - it's kind of chewy...in a good way! So, as you can imagine, I have made about a billion and one types of quinoa over the years, but this one takes the cake with zero ...
