It’s grilling season and I will put anything on a grill! I especially love any kind of kabob situation because it just feels like your whole meal is on a stick! So of course I decided to make chicken skewers with pineapple and veggies and a sticky, coconut soy glaze! The marinade and glaze is […]

This is the weeknight roast chicken I come back to again and again! Instead of a whole chicken, we’re using boneless, skin-on chicken thighs! Instead of fussing over fresh herbs and garlic we’re using store-bought Italian dressing (it’s already got the garlic, the herbs, the vinegar, the oil…). We roast the chicken in the pan […]

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 […]

Too many times over the past month I’ve looked at my clock in complete shock that it is 6pm and I have yet to even step into the kitchen to cook dinner. Usually I think, now is the time to panic. But a few weeks ago I remembered a quick chicken dinner my mom would […]

Several years ago I had a smothered burrito at a Mexican restaurant and I have not stopped dreaming about it since! The creamy sauce, the juicy chicken and there were French fries in the burrito! I obviously had to try to recreated them. Instead of French fries I roasted up some deliciously seasoned potato cubes! […]

I almost never want fruit in my main dish. I very rarely even want fruit in my salads. But I had an overabundance of peaches and I wanted to create a savory dish. And wow, did I deliver! You all, this might be one of my favorite dishes I ever created! I still am shocked […]
