Making simple, easy meals. Life is complicated enough, why should our food be too?
A couple months ago, I bought a boneless pork shoulder with the intention to make a recipe out of the Paleo Performance cook book. Once I read the instructions and realized it was a 12 hour commitment, I lost enthusiasm and chickened out. I had never cooked with pork before. But across the #sundaysetup community,… Continue reading Shredded Pork w/ Maple BBQ Sauce
So I haven’t posted in a little bit – it’s because the recent stars of my meal prep have been other people’s recipes. Greek meatballs, Shredded Pork Tinga…. We’ve been eating really good over here. But I didn’t’ want to leave you waiting for too long, so I went back through my archives and found… Continue reading {Gluten Free} Chocolate Chip Muffins
Ok, so my previous post explained my hatred for ground beef but I should have mentioned that hatred does not extend to ground beef that is turned into a cheeseburger. My husband loves cheeseburgers. Like really loves them. Landon does too, actually. We are a cheeseburger family. But obviously, McDonald’s is not an option. So,… Continue reading Oven Baked BBQ Burgers
Ok, chops galore is a little bit of an exaggeration. But, let me tell you something about porkchops. Wait, is that one word or two? Anyways, they are my JAM! Seriously, I can’t get enough of these bad boys. I really needed something new and exciting in the meat department. I cook a ton of… Continue reading Porkchops Galore + Roasted Potatoes
As you know, I live in Minnesota. I hate the cold. The only good thing about Minnesota weather is that it is Soup Season pretty much 9 months out of the year! This week my husband requested chili. Ugh. He thinks it is the greatest meal because it is basically just protein and veggies, and… Continue reading Shredded Chicken Chili
Well hello again! I know, it has been too long. I can’t believe I haven’t posted since February 3rd. Talk about slacking. It was a busy, busy week. All of last weekend’s meal prep was done for the husband. I spent the week in Houston, Texas at my company’s Leadership Conference. What an amazing time… Continue reading 10-Minute Chicken Fried Rice
We love burritos. We love Chipotle, we love Burrito Loco. I have successfully made a burrito bowl meal that is comparable to our favorite Mexican joints. My husband is a burrito connoisseur. He eats Chipotle more times per week than I should admit. When he got home from work the night I made these burrito… Continue reading Burrito Bowls
There are only so many days in a week that I can eat chicken. If every meal I prep during the week contains the same protein, I end up choosing a JJ unwhich instead of my pre-made food. So, I keep it interesting by adding in at least one dish that is made with steak,… Continue reading Teriyaki Glazed Flank Steak
It’s official. Cold and flu season is here in full force. The husband has been sick for over a week now, with no signs of the symptoms letting go anytime soon. The kid had a brief bout with the stomach flu. I have managed to stay healthy thus far. Which is definitely not the norm.… Continue reading Buffalo Chicken Soup
When I was still little but old enough to make my own plates at family gatherings, I would always pile my plate high. Everything looked so delicious. I could surely fit it all in my stomach, couldn’t it? Well, each and every time, I would take my barely touched plate over to my dad who… Continue reading Italian Sausage + Kale Soup
