Making simple, easy meals. Life is complicated enough, why should our food be too?
Now that we are eating really clean, we gotta keep it interesting in the kitchen. Chicken and vegetables is definitely a weekly go to – but adding different flavors is important. The hubby is perfectly fine eating the same thing for weeks in a row, if he likes it. But not me… I need variety.… Continue reading Chicken Cacciatore over white rice
There is nothing better than a giant cup of coffee and Food Network on a Saturday morning! We’re short staffed at work, so I’ve been putting in a lot of extra hours and somehow, still not feeling any closer to being caught up! So, I’ve been spending Saturday mornings at my desk trying to catch… Continue reading Gluten Free Goulash
I know that global warming is a bad thing… I get it. But c’mon. There is nothing wrong with hiking outside in February, watching boats drive by on the river. The mud, I was less fond of – now I have to clean my combat boots. It was a chilly but beautiful afternoon for a… Continue reading Sheet Pan Dinner – Honey Garlic Chicken
Let me tell you about my current obsession. My current obsession (besides buying iphone cases that I don’t need) is one-pot rice meals. Holy crap. Why didn’t I think of this before? I have wasted so much time mixing things with rice after cooking it all separately! I looked at a recipe last weekend for… Continue reading One-Pot-Rice & Burrito Bowls!
You guys. Chipotle delivers to the Twin Cities. I recently discovered this, then forgot about it, then remembered again. This all came about because I was supposed to have a dinner date with a girlfriend last Friday then bring home something for the hubby, but then I woke up with the stupidest migraine ever and… Continue reading Crockpot Barbacoa Tacos
OK, I almost never post twice in one week, but I haven’t shared a sweet treat in a really long time so I just couldn’t wait! You have no idea how amazing my apartment smells right now. But you could have an idea, because if you make this cinnamon apple crumble, your home can smell… Continue reading Cinnamon Apple Crisp
You know what's the worst? Admitting that all of my best recipes are the ones that my hubby suggested. Last week, the enchiladas were his idea, and they turned out so yummy. This week, he wanted sloppy joe's. Is it sloppy Joe's or sloppy Joes. Plural or possessive? Who can be sure. I probably won't… Continue reading Sloppy Joe’s
I was really going to try to start off 2017 dairy free. Mostly because I have to be dairy free for 7 days for a “lactose intolerance” test that I will get charged for if I don’t return it in 14 days but also because I feel like cheese doesn’t really coordinate well with my… Continue reading Shredded Beef Enchiladas
IT’S SO COLD. Winter is the worst. Seriously, the worst. It’s like they try to trick you into thinking it’s great because of the holidays and all, but really that’s just a couple of fun days of distraction in the midst of a whole bunch of nose-hairs-frozen-solid kind of days. I keep wondering if it… Continue reading Shepherd’s Pie (did I spell that right?)
I was supposed to post this recipe weeks ago, I am such a procrastinator! Now is an especially good time to share some comfort food, given the current climate. And no, I’m not talking about the temperature. But, this is going to be the one place that you all lovely people can come to without… Continue reading Gluten Free Breakfast Lasagna
