Can you keep a secret from the sous chef? Pretty please [with the recipe for this salad on top]? I have several loves in my life – not just him [I know, shhhhh…..]. There’s our fury four-legged son [yes, to be expected], and then this beautiful bowl of spicy, crunchy goodness [GASP]. I know what…
Lunch
Zucchini Noodles with a Roasted Red Pepper Cream Sauce
STOP THE PRESSES: We’ve got ourselves an impasta on our hands! Get it? Zoodles? Fake pasta? [… and on today’s episode of my favorite [and oh so terrible] corny jokes to tell…] Please tell me you just laughed? Maybe a chuckle? A smile, at least? No? Just an eye roll? #storyofmylife. And as much as I’m all about…
Skillet Beef and Broccoli
So first things first – after trying this beef and broccoli, the sous chef immediately states that this “tastes like real beef and broccoli…” I couldn’t help but laugh, because it is really, really difficult to make beef and broccoli taste like chicken, cupcakes, seafood, or anything other than beef and broccoli – because, you…
Mediterranean Chicken Salad with a Red Wine Vinaigrette
Sooooo it’s Thursday, and I have a totally beauteous salad to share with you – bursting with color and texture – that’s going to give you that extra umph to get through the rest of the week. And maybe springtime generally. Because it’s that good. And I know exactly what you’re thinking: this is the best news…
Spicy Enchilada Meatballs
My favorite dishes are ones that are most practical to eat with a spoon rather than a fork. Because, you know, the spoon’s a vehicle for sauce, duh [um, #saucegamegoals]. And be still my heart, the sous chef suggested the spoons. So many reasons why I married this guy. This one is up there. I was…

White Bean and Spinach Braised Chicken Thighs [One Pot Dish!]
So simple, and so easy. Almost embarrassingly so – but just almost. If this recipe wasn’t totally delicious, embarrassment may appropriate. But it’s not… so we’re safe. *phew* So recently, the sous chef has been giving me a hard time about “all the butter, cream, cheese, and oil” that I cook with [insert eye roll here]….
Buffalo Chicken and Jack Cheese Salad
Buffalo wing sauce is basically what my dreams are made of. It’s pretty much sacred to me. As are many condiments – but this one is right up there at the top of my list. Throw it on a salad with a dollop or five of ranch dressing, and I’m in heaven. Oh, and can we…
Spring Cobb Salad with a Champagne Vinaigrette
Nothing to see here, friends. Nothing to see here. EXCEPT THIS INSANELY GORGEOUS AND CRAZY DELICIOUS SPRING COBB SALAD. Whew… sorry, had to get that out. This is definitely worth seeing. And even better: worth making. As in, stop everything you’re doing, find a cutting board, pour a glass of wine, fry up some bacon, and…
One Pot Creamy Chicken Noodle Soup
Pleaseeee don’t be mad at me. I know, I know. I’m supposed to be moving onto spring, and here I am, whipping up one of the yummiest comfort food recipes ideal for, like, you know, January. But in my defense, even though it’s mid-March, mother nature in her crazy way drops snow and ice on…
Pesto Chicken with Spaghetti Squash and Kale
So, I’ve made no secret of my love for pesto. In fact, I profess it quite often: take exhibit A. But I insist on basil pesto. I love arugula, kale, and spinach – you name it – as much as the next person. But it shouldn’t go in pesto. Basil goes in pesto. That’s my story, and…
