How do we celebrate fall, my friends? That’s right, we break out the sweatpants, and eat ourselves into a beautiful food coma. And of course, enjoy every single carb-loaded bite along the way. So GOOD NEWS on that front… this slow cooker chicken and wild rice stew will answer all of your comfort food prayers, and comes…

Slow Cooker Lentil and Kale Soup
I make no secret of my obsession with soup. And I’m 97% convinced mother nature is doing her damnedest to test my fortitude for whipping up everything cozy this fall — which is completely fine with me — because I’m up for the challenge. Did I mention IT’S 80 DEGREES IN OCTOBER? So, step 1…
Panko Crusted Pork Tenderloin with a White Wine-Mustard Cream Sauce
So the sous chef and I are pretty much permanently scarred from having leather-like pork chops as kids […love you, mom]. So in all the time we’ve known each other, pork chops are just not something we’ve ever had the desire to cook – probably because no amount of sauce could have saved them, and that’s an unfortunate deal…
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.

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]….
Roasted Greek Chicken Thighs with Artichokes and Bacon
This is probably as close to a one-pot dish as I’m going to get [minus the slow cooker… but even then I struggle. Exhibit a) red wine braised short ribs]. As much as the sous chef would have loved for me to actually create a one-pot dish, I am obsessed with browning food first because, well,…
Chicken Chili Stew with Sweet Potatoes & Kale
I don’t even have words. Okay I found a couple: I was hoping – really HOPING (as in fingers crossed) – this would be delicious. And it was better than delicious. I was a bit skeptical of chicken chili – because who doesn’t love beef chili with bacon and stuff – but you guys, this…
