This chili has become a sensation on the internet! So much so that she got a name glow-up from Pumpkin Chili to Harvest chili (too many people associate “pumpkin” with something sweet and I assure you, this chili is stick-to-your-bones savory and hearty!). Without further adieu, the chili of your dreams 👇 I’ve been thinking […]

We’re making homemade loaded baked potato soup! The soup is so hearty in a stick-to-your-ribs kind of way that I almost want to call it a potato stew! Baked potato soup has not really been in my recipe cache as an adult but it is something my mom made when I was growing up and […]

I have been insanely excited to share this recipe with you! This sticky honey chicken recipe is what cravings were made for. And it comes together so fast using just a few staple ingredients. A few weeks ago I was craving Asian food in a big way. Generally my Thai Basil Stir-fry is the perfect […]

Vegetarian, paleo optional, Instant Pot Spaghetti Squash Bake. Stay with me! I promise you are going to fall in love. First, real talk? I do not typically make vegetarian dishes. Jeremy and I eat a lot of grass fed, organic beef and chicken around here. But this dish, it made me a believer. TBH, this […]

 This meal. Grain Free Chicken Enchiladas. It was the first successful meal I made as a new wife. That was six years ago and I still keep it in my back pocket. If you’ve read my new book Come & Eat then you know about my many failed attempts in the kitchen as a new […]

I am an extra creamy chicken piccata kind of girl. More sauce! More cream! This is basically my life motto. Chicken Piccata was one of the first dishes I learned to make when we got married. It is quick and easy. I keep most of the ingredients on hand at all times. We eat this […]

Listen, I have craved chili approximately 0 times in my life. And that’s being generous. But the weekend after Thanksgiving I wanted two things, cold weather and chili. I could not do much about the cold weather because it is Southern California. But we did put our tree up after basically rearranging our tiny space […]

I’ve discovered something amazing. One pan dish meals. As in – throw everything on the pan and throw it into the oven. I know I am behind the curve on this but I can’t be stopped. It is new to me and I am all, “Hi Williams Sonoma, can I please order 23 sheet pans?” […]

This title is a little  misleading. What is more important than noodles? Exactly. Fall is here and I am finding my worn path back to the stove. I love that path. It’s been finding respite because this past summer I was making new trails to the grill, to the grass for picnics, to the countertop […]

February. Big, bright, messy month that she is. Here, inviting herself into our lives. Invite. This is my One Word for 2015. It has come up around me and slipped its hand in mine. Like an old friend. Like a courageous new friend. Inviting is everywhere. Inviting is generosity calling out someone by name in […]
