Broccoli Cheddar Brown Rice Skillet

January 23, 2017 by Annie Chesson 5 Comments

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 šŸ˜. But for reals, broccoli and cheddar. What up with that?! Any time you mix broccoli ...

I have this AWESOME friend named Ceaven (it's pronounced "Kevin"). My phone likes to correct her nameĀ seven million times before it accepts that I am trying to type Ceaven. Craven. Caravan. Heaven.

Life be cray sometimes, amiright?

Cashew Chicken

January 27, 2016 by Annie Chesson 40 Comments

Cashew chicken...one of MA FAVES when it comes to Chinese take-out. I love the different textures from the chicken, veggies, water chestnuts, and cashews. But the BEST part, in my opinion, is when the sauce kind of soaks into the cashews, softening them and loading them with delicious, saucy, flavor. You could say I am quite the expert on Chinese take-out. It is a go-to for Seth and I on lazy ...

30 Minute One Pot Broccoli Cheddar Soup

January 2, 2015 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Broccoli Cheddar Soup is one of my favorite things ever. I don't know why it's so good...I mean, broccoli is pretty good but it's not absolutely delicious or anything. But when you throw it in a soup with some cheese it become sooo yummy. Not to mention a great way to sneak some broccoli into your kids' bellies. This recipe has two whole heads of it, so it's not a small amount! This is such an ...
