Thisssssssss is the HEIGHT of a satisfying, easy weeknight dinner, friends. The steak gets a delicious sear and is then roasted to medium rare perfection, and the whole thing is topped off with a WONDERFUL, fresh, crunchy, satisfying spicy cucumber salsa. It's dinner dreams, feel me? It's the combination of flavors and textures that will make your taste buds sing Christmas carols all year ...
Crispy Oven Baked Salt and Vinegar Chicken Wings
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 ...
Charred Asian Green Beans
Green beans are one of my favorite veggies. My kids also like them, which is a huge bonus! These green beans are extra special because they are simmered, drained, and then lightly charred and tossed with a delicious Asian sauce. The char + the sauce give the best flavor to these green beans! It'll even cure a Chinese takeout fix, whiiiiccchhhh I just so happen to get on the reg, TBH. ...
January Whole 30!
Here we go, January! Today is our official start of Whole 30 round 2 (we did one official round a little less than 2 years ago). We like to eat Whole 30 food semi-consistently as a lifestyle, but we haven't done an official round in a looooong time. We are excited! Is anyone else out there doing one this month? I know January is a popular month for Whole 30 - kicking the new year off with a ...
Chimichurri Chicken
Say hello to your brand new weeknight favorite, friends and family! This chicken is a super sneaky weeknight meal because it's one that doesn't taste like it took half an hour to make! Not. At. All. The chicken is juicy and moist (not to mention super flavorful from the blackening seasoning), and the chimichurri is crazy flavorful and impossibly fresh. They are a match made in ...
Whole 30 Stuffed Peppers
Raise your hand if you agree that stuffed peppers are one of those meals that are just SO satisfying to make? 🙋 It's kind of like lasagna, you prep the different ingredients/fillings, put it all together, bake, and it comes out in this pretty little package. Stuffed peppers are like that! The delicious, hearty filling is stuffed into a little pepper cavity - it's just pretty! And then you each ...
Whole 30 Cashew Chicken
Chinese takeout is one of my biggest guilty pleasures. On extra lazy nights, my go-to is one of two things: pizza or takeout. Both so yummy and both so satisfying! Howevvvver, there is a caveat to this! I always feel kinda gross and heavy afterwards. My skin feels greasy after eating the greasy Chinese food, and I'm always so dang thirsty from all that sodium. Now, don't get me wrong, I ...
Roasted Leek Salad with Apple Cider Vinaigrette
I love a good fall salad. Salads are typically seen as a "fresh summer" type situation, but fall salads are my fave! They seem to have heartier ingredients, and it's not uncommon that they have a roasted veggie or two thrown in there. In this case, our roasted veggie is the humble leek. It's a type of onion, but the flavor is mild and extra savory in my opinion! They get caramelized, soft, ...
Caramelized Butternut Squash with Pecans
This. Butternut. Squash. Is. NEXT LEVEL, you guys. Butternut squash is usually the star in soups, you don't see it quite as often served on its own as a side. But, man oh man oh man, this caramelized butternut squash is to die for! The sweetness of the veggie itself is deepened by the caramelization, but then we've got pecans, lots of garlic, sage, and thyme thrown in for the last few minutes - ...
Chopped Cauliflower Salad
There's something so fun and satisfying about a salad without any greens! They are super extra hearty, and it's like a bowl full of JUST the toppings (which are the best part anyway, right?!). This salad is definitely hearty, but it's also full of flavors and textures that balance each other out: Roasted, tender cauliflowerCrunchy fresh celery and fennelNutty almondsA bright lemon ...
