(Please excuse the terrible photo. It’s hard to get good lighting when it gets dark at 5 pm!) We are only days away from the holidays! It’s my absolute favorite time of year. I love decorating the house, listening to Christmas music and, most importantly, cooking for the people I love! I’m a hostess at…

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…
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…
Smoky Stuffed Zucchini
Happy Monday, all! Man, those words may have never come out of my mouth in the same sentence before. I have lots to be excited about right now, though! First things first. I got my house all decorated for Christmas last night, and it feels ah-mazing. This is absolutely my favorite time of year. I…
Loaded Cauliflower and Chicken Casserole
I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! I had a few days off work (gotta love bank life!) and got to spend the whole break with family and friends. But now it’s back to reality for a few weeks. I know I should probably be over casseroles after literally eating them for days, but I’m…
Garlic Beef Tips with Parsnip Purée and Roasted Sprouts
So, I’ve been MIA lately. Daylight is not on my side right now, which means not-so-great food pictures. The lack of good pictures has deterred me from posting, but that is a shallow, not great excuse for dropping off the face of the earth. Please forgive me. Hopefully this dish will make up for the…
Creamy Chicken Fajita Bowls
It was really only a matter of time before the truth came out. Though Brussels sprouts and Heirloom cherry tomatoes have a special place in my heart, there are two food groups that hold an equally special place. One of them happens to be… yep, you guessed it! 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….
