Creamy Chicken and Fresh Corn Casserole

August 20, 2018 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

This casserole is summer and fall holding hands and skipping down the street together. It is THE perfect recipe for those of us who are still enjoying summer in all its warmth, sunny days, pool visits, and fresh, ripe veggies but are also cautiously excited to welcome fall into our homes with its comforting, "curl up on the couch with a blanket when you get back from pumpkin picking" feel. It ...

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

Vegan Chili Stewed Chickpeas

June 21, 2016 by Annie Chesson 2 Comments

So basically these last few weeks have been a hey-my-husband-is-finally-home-from-his-deployment-so-let's-celebrate-and-go-out-to-eat-every-three-seconds type of situation. We haven't been eating super badly (with the exception of a few several meals), but it definitely hasn't been kale salad and protein shakes over here. We went to Topeka with my sister-in-law and niece yesterday, so we ate at a ...

Brown Rice Lasagna Skillet

May 2, 2016 by Annie Chesson 18 Comments

Do you ever have those weeks when you are just NOT MOTIVATED to do anything??? You have this big to-do list, but you would really rather just grab a pint of ice cream, sit down on the couch, and binge watch The Office until it's time to go to bed? Myyyyyy liiiife these past few weeks. It's a weird phase, though, because I am totally fine while I'm at work - productive, energized, into it. It's ...

Oh, hello there little bowl of deliciousness. You make me so happy with your perfectly seasoned, browned turkey and veggies; hearty brown rice; and melt-y, gooey cheese ?. I am telling you right now, the 21 Day Fix does NOT restrict you from eating delicious, interesting, flavorful food.

Cheesy Mexican Rice Casserole

January 11, 2016 by Annie Chesson 24 Comments

Hello, strangers! It has been quite a while since I've been able to make my way over to this little corner of the internet. Between holidays, SO MUCH TRAVEL, and less than satisfactory weather in Kansas (meaning dark and stormy every day) ((meaning photography = no no)), I have definitely had some issues bringing you three posts a week. But we had sunny weather this past weekend, and I was able ...
