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….

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…
Bacon and Cheddar Pierogies with Caramelized Onions
Pierogies! It’s what’s for dinner! Maybe an appetizer would be more appropriate? Appropriate, shmappropriate. I’D EAT THESE BABIES FOR BREAKFAST. We can go ahead throw appropriateness out the window — right alongside any notion of traditional pierogies. Because listen, I don’t proclaim to be a pierogi aficionado by any stretch of the imagination [cough, sous chef,…
Crispy Shrimp Tacos with a Sriracha-Chili Aioli
Oh my gosh, ya’ll. THESE TACOS. I am at a total loss for words to describe the insane deliciousness of these puppies. I’m talking life-changing tacos. Is that possible? It totally is.

Chicken Mozzarella with a Hearty Tomato Sauce
Are you as excited about this chicken mozzarella as I am? WHEW. So glad to hear it. My most favorite thing about this: the ridiculous texture + CHEESE + SAUCE = goals. And that’s all I have to say about that. Okay, not really. I have a lot more to say. Because I’m basically gushing about…
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…
Cheesy Meatball Skillet in a Spicy Tomato Sauce
Oh, that skillet of golden, cheesy meatballs buried in a wondrously delicious tomato sauce? That’s just my portion. No big deal. Just don’t ask where the sous chef’s is… These meatballs are completely addicting. Oneeeee more won’t hurt [read: I’m in total denial. I was stuffed.]. But this one of those dishes that practically warms the…
Gingerbread Waffles with Cinnamon Whipped Cream
Why hello, plate-of-amazing-gingerbread-waffles-I’d-like-to-fall-face-first-into. I’ve been on this weird gingerbread bender (more on this to come…) but at least it’s December and it’s totally acceptable. I mean, if I could wake up to these babies every weekend, my life would be complete. Would you give me the side eye if I made these on a hot…
