My friends! A hiatus it has been for sure. But very happy to be reunited with you – and mostly because these ridiculously delicious General Tso nuggets are comin’ in hot (with any luck to YOUR kitchen). These babies might be slightly labor intensive, but trust me, it’s labor of love. One very well worth it….
Dinner
Taco Bowls with Mexican-Style Cauliflower Rice
Helloooo, my frannnnds! This recipe is so colorful, so bright, SO delicious, andddd…. it’s pretty much perfect [so modest, I know]. The sous chef and I have been going a teensyy weensy bit overboard on cauliflower rice [because, hello, Trader Joe’s pre-riced cauliflower has been nothing short of life changing] and this will give you every….
Creamy Cajun Shrimp and Sausage Pasta
Welp, my friends. Spring is here. And in honor of sabotaging all bathing suit season goals, I bring you this insanely delicious recipe. Truth be told, I think we all just need to agree that bathing suit season is overrated [I-will-sit-on-the-beach-in-sweats, thankyouverymuch. #trendsetter]. But you know what’s not overrated? Lucky for us, this creamy, spicy,…
The BEST Shrimp Cauliflower Fried Rice
Also known as, the best fit-back-into-your-pre-holiday-pants recipe, without missing a flavor beat. That’s right. This is so. so. so. good. I’ve made variations of shrimp cauliflower fried rice recipes in the past, and I can tell you right now: this is leaps and bounds more delicious, and SO satisfying [more on my secret ingredients in a…
Creamy Crab Bisque with Sherry and Old Bay
My oh my, how I love thee. It’s rich. creamy. decadent. And packed with succulent crab meat. This has to be one of the most satisfying and delicious soups known to man. I’m talking 15 out of 10 would make this every single day for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Weird? Maybe. The best decision ever?…
Creamy Pumpkin-Sage Pasta Alfredo
Welp, it’s mid-October and it FINALLY feels like fall. I mean, I was literally on the verge of finding a sacrificial lamb to send up to mother nature to put an end to this swamp-like weather (which we’ve been suffering through since, like, April I’m pretty sure #survivors, amiright?). But ANYWHO, let’s all take a moment…
Corn, Tomato, & Avocado Salad with Dijon Vinaigrette
BEHOLD, my friends. Because today I bring you the most delicious – and SIMPLE – salad ever. Like, it’s almost embarrassingly easy. Just almost. Not to mention, it’s also stunning. And SO good. I could probably eat this every single day and die a happy person. I mean, is there a better way to eat…
Grilled Cedar Planked Salmon with Asian Glaze
Ya’ll, it’s *almost* officially grilling season, and the sous chef, for one, is THRILLED. Is it because there are fewer dishes to be washed? Probably. But more than that, he’s basically obsessed with grilling/smoking/anything where he can play with woodchips/charcoal/fire [*boys will be boys*]. And hey, I am totally on board, because I can sit…
Spring Spaghetti Squash Alfredo with Shrimp
Spaghetti squash is my JAM. Is it because I mostly use it as a vehicle for sauce? Without a doubt…. andddd I wouldn’t change a thing. But seriously, this spaghetti squash alfredo doesn’t disappoint. Creamy, decadent alfredo sauce, tossed with spaghetti squash, asparagus, peas, Parmesan cheese, and delicious little nuggets of shrimp? Yesssssssssssssss. [Brb, heating up…
Bangers and [Cauliflower] Mash with a Stout-Onion Gravy
MARCH! Finally, March. I’m one of those people who loves winter for mostly one reason: snow. And snow days. Cozy, snuggly snow days with wine hot chocolate and lots of snowmen [I typically leave the shoveling to the sous chef, naturally]. But that said, we’ve maybe had a DUSTING of snow all winter — which…
