Y’all. You know when it’s mid-summer, sweltering, and all you want is a salad good ol’ comfort food pretty much appropriate for February? Whew. I knew it wasn’t just me. See, we bond over so many things – SO glad we have each other. Welp, good news, my friends. This summer rendition of chicken cacciatore is just…

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. Massaged kale salads have been a thing in our house recently, because they’re so good. And let’s be honest: the kale is basically a perfect…
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…
Grilled Summer Chipotle Corn Salad
Let me introduce to you one of my most favorite, simple, and embarrassingly easy side dishes. So as a general thing, the sous chef and I don’t eat a ton of starchy things — unless of course we’re carbloading on pasta to ensure we have enough energy to get through our favorite Netflix show — but…
Kale and Crispy Chickpea Salad with a Creamy Basil Dressing
WAITTTTT! Please don’t run away. I know this is scary [the salad doesn’t even have cheese]. And… it’s another salad. We’ve been on such a salad kick – similar to our soup habit this past winter that we haven’t seemed to kick just yet – but we’re going to get through this together, and I think…
Fajita Chicken Salad with a Chili-Lime Vinaigrette
Y’ALL. Beach season is right around the corner. And I can’t promise one way or the other whether this is going to help your diet, or hurt your diet. I have a LEGIT salad problem. And it basically stems from my inability to stop piling on cheese, avocado, and everything else delicious under the sun…
Spring Marinated Asparagus with Hard Boiled Egg, Capers, and Basil
Hi! So happy you stopped by – because this asparagus recipe is a game changer for your spring recipe rotation. Now, the sous chef and I love just grilling and roasting plain asparagus [olive oil, salt, pepper — you can’t go wrong] – but this is such a perfect side dish with a little extra…
Roasted Bell Pepper and Mozzarella Summer Salad with an Herb Vinaigrette
So the sous chef and I officially have our summer vegetable garden planted, and we’re very excited – the only thing that more exciting would be if we were able to grow cheese. You know, mozzarella cheese or something. Okay, I’d take any cheese [kind of a cheese-aholic]. But we can’t, so we’ll have to…
Cauliflower, Leek, and White Cheddar Soup with Thyme
My fraaanndssss! Helloooo! I’ve missed you, dearly. But so glad we’re reunited again. And there couldn’t be better circumstances for our little parley. Because today, we’re whipping up this completely delicious cauliflower and leek soup. And if you take out the cheese [WARNING: DON’T DO THIS, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. CHEESE IS LIFE.], it basically has negative calories….
Rib-Eye Steaks with a Mustard Cream Sauce and Spring Vegetables
