Hi, hi! So, pasta is a total weakness of mine, and I can’t help but indulge from time to time. I mean, we’re talking dreamy, creamy, ridiculously decadent pasta dishes. Because you know, #yolo.

Greek Chicken Gyros with Tzatziki
So I am absolutely in love with everything about these Greek gyros. First of all, the tzatziki is to die for… like, I kid you not, the sous chef literally eats this by the spoonful when I make it. And there’s a beautiful crunch from the tomato, cucumber, and red onion salad… you know, topped with crumbly,…
Thai Chopped Chicken Salad with a Ginger-Peanut Dressing
Hello…! I’m so excited to share this salad with you. This beautiful bowl of a rainbow is sure to brighten your Tuesday. And aside from this being a super healthy salad [read: more calories saved for dessert wine], it’s also so so yummy. You know, mid-summer, I find nothing more refreshing than a crisp, cool salad…

Summer BLT Kale Salad with Garlic Croutons & Creamy Ranch
My friends, summer just got that. much. better. This salad is everything. And you’re totally going to have major FOMO if you don’t whip this baby up — so let’s not waste any time.

Slow Cooker Pulled Buffalo Chicken Lettuce Wraps
So I’m kind of maybe just a teensy weensy bit excited to share these with you. After my crockpot chicken chili stew with sweet potatoes and kale, I fell in love with slow cooking boneless chicken thighs. Like, we’re talking head over heels, crushing hard on these babes. And I’ve made no secret that I…
Southwest Spatchcock Chicken with a Chipotle-Lime Crema
My friends, this is the stuff that dreams are made of. The smokiness of the chicken, the crispiness of the skin…. and yes, you know exactly where I’m going with this: the sauce. It is 100% acceptable [read: expected] that you use an inappropriate amount of sauce with this chicken. Because the sauce is just…
BBQ Chopped Chicken Salad
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…

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.

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]….
