Easy Weeknight Meals

Wraps are my favorite dinnertime option when I want to…assemble dinner. Less cooking! More just putting a masterpiece together! But some wraps can fall so short and be so bland. The secret? Layers! Not in a complicated, multi-component, clear-your-Sunday-afternoon kind of way. In a I have five ingredients and they are all doing their job […]

It is very rare that I would choose a salad over a taco, until I met this salad! My Zesty Cilantro Lime Chicken Salad! Let me be very clear about something: I do not take average salads seriously. I never have. A bowl of sad lettuce with some pale tomatoes and a drizzle of ranch […]

We’re taking pizza night to a whole new level with these Hot Honey & Pepperoni Pizzas in puff pastry! For years, every Friday night at our house means Friday Night Pizza Night. It’s been such a consistent tradition that by the time Friday morning hits, I am already craving pizza. These are the ways I […]

There are soups you make because it’s cold. There are soups you make because you forgot to meal plan. And then there is this soup! This is my Heal Me Now Chicken Soup and I make it when I am feeling a little under the weather, either physically or emotionally. There is something about bringing […]

This creamy ham and potato chowder was born from leftovers, pantry staples and a desire to still be in my soup era, so honestly, the trifecta! The leftovers in question? Ham. Over the holidays I made a small ham and we still had…leftover ham! So soup was born! It was so good that I was […]

The 15-Minute “Umami Bomb” Fried Rice: Your Weeknight Glow-Up Has Arrived! It has been a minute since I made fried rice but I have always loved it. It’s quick, can be perfect for cleaning out the fridge of veggies on their last will to live, and deeply satisfying! This quick, flavorful fried rice features browned […]

Introducing a dish that is high-flavor, low drama, and a one pan wonder. Everyone wins! This is the kind of dinner that makes you feel wildly competent for a Tuesday night. The oven does the heavy lifting, the spice cabinet shows off a little, and suddenly your kitchen smells like you planned this all week […]

I’ve finally tried the crispy rice that has taken the internet by storm! I knew I wanted to pair it with a spiced meat situation and so here we have my Crispy Rice Mediterranean Bowls! Making crispy rice is super easy! I use 2 cups dry rice to get about 3-4 cups cooked rice. I […]

Apparently I am turning everything into soup, and this has proved to be a very good idea! Recently, I wanted Chicken Marsala (specifically from The Cheesecake Factory and also, Cheesecake Factory hate will not be tolerated on this page!), but I also wanted soup and so we got my Chicken Marsala Soup.  A few weeks […]

For years I have used homemade chicken broth and stock for cooking. It’s convenient, it’s low-stakes and I found some pretty good store-bought brands over the years. But this past fall I thought I’d revisit making my own chicken stock at home just to see if I really could tell the difference. And I am […]
