Lemon Chicken and Red Potato Soup

Welcome to the 3rd and final day of my plan for eating clean on a budget! For my final recipe, I decided to create something that will warm you up on a cold winter night. The star of the show tonight is lemon chicken and red potato soup! Honestly, I’m not usually a big soup…

Sesame Garlic Chicken Thighs with Cauliflower Fried Rice

Welcome to day one of my 3 day plan for clean eating on a budget! Each day, I will post a grocery list along with an estimated cost. I will also post a list of items that you may already have in your pantry. It is important to pay attention to both lists to make…

Spinach and Feta Stuffed Chicken Breast

Well, it seems that winter is upon us. I’m so dang excited about it. There is nothing I love more than the first snow of the year. Except for the second or third snow of the year. I love waking up to frost on the ground and air so cold that you can see your…

Loaded Cauliflower and Chicken Casserole

Creamy Chicken Fajita Bowls

Mexican! There’s something so comforting about sitting down…

Balsamic Heirloom Tomato Chicken

Let’s talk tomatoes. I grew up in a family full of tomato-loving people. My granddad used to have a pretty big garden growing in his back yard. He would grow squash, onions, okra, green beans, and yes – tomatoes. I used to love going out to the garden with him to look at everything he’d…

Lightened Up Chicken, Bacon and Ranch Pizza

This weekend has been good for the soul. Nothing makes for a great weekend quite like sleeping in, time with the hubs, and (almost) nothing on the agenda. So what do I do when I have no real plans? I cook, of course. On the menu tonight: Lightened up chicken, bacon and ranch pizza. Yup….
