Hi there, summer - nice to bump into you again! I'm looking forward to spending the next several weeks enjoying you before the lovely fall season begins to creep in 😍!

15 Minute Mango Salsa

May 22, 2019 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

What is better than a perfect bowl of fresh, ripe mango salsa? Nothing, you say? You would be THE MOST correct. It's fruity, it's sweet, it's tangy, it's got some spice from the jalapeno, bite from the red onion, and freshness from the cilantro. Throw it on top of grilled chicken, fish, pork, grass clippings...wait, probably not...but maybe? This mango salsa takes like two seconds to make ...

Hot Bacon Dressing

May 20, 2019 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Can I just say that I'm so happy we live in a world where something called "bacon dressing" exists? I mean...what is this life? The fact that we can douse our salad in hot bacon dressing and call it a meal makes my heart the happiest it's ever been. This takes dressing to a whole new level. We literally use the fat rendered from the bacon as the oil in this dressing. Is that even legal? It's ...

Keto Sushi (paleo, whole 30)

May 6, 2019 by Annie Chesson 3 Comments

Sushi is my favorite food. I could eat it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Breakfast sushi? Someone needs to get ON THAT asap. Cause I'd be so down! I had it last night for dinner - just the kind they sell pre-made at the grocery store. See? I don't need anything fancy. I don't discriminate...give me sushi in any form and I'll love you forever. Since doing keto (and when we were doing Whole ...

Is it just me, or are buffalo wings the life of every party? It's not uncommon for me to crave something smothered in buffalo sauce daily weekly. Ultra crispy crunchy buffalo wings are one of my fave things in the delicious world of food! But - game changer - have you ever tried buffalo shrimp?

Crispy Instant Pot Pork Belly (Keto, Paleo, Whole 30)

April 15, 2019 by Annie Chesson 34 Comments

Um, excuse me - hello, beautiful. You are perfection in every sense of the word. You are absurdly crispy on top, fall-apart moist and juicy in the middle, and full of delicious, fatty goodness. I AM IN LOVE. I have only every eaten pork belly in super fancy restaurant situations, so I figured it would be crazy expensive to buy at the store. But for two big chunks of pork belly - two and a ...

Whole Roasted Brussels Sprouts with Balsamic Reduction

April 10, 2019 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

Brussels sprouts are the most underrated vegetable in the world. People have been brainwashed by their grandparents and parents boiling them to the consistency of absolute mush and then dumping them on their plate and force feeding them mushy globs of questionable smelling sprouts. BUT - listen, these poor brussels sprouts have just been wildly misunderstood. Because when cooked correctly and ...

March 22, 2019 by Annie Chesson Leave a Comment

At this point, I've had my Instant Pot for a year + a few months, and I am still SO OBSESSED. It is one HUNDO P my favorite kitchen item, and I get excited when I think of ways to use it.
