Here’s a quick and easy side dish for any holiday or weeknight where you need a tasty side dish. The roasting brings out the natural flavors of both the carrots and sprouts, which can otherwise be tasteless. It’s easy to put together and even easier to cook up. Just slice and roast and it’s done! Happy […]
Easter
Instant Pot Lemon Chicken Orzo Soup
Soup! My all-time favorite meal. You can mix and meat and/or veg into a bowl with broth and it’s always delicious. Don’t believe me? Try any number of my 30+ soups I’ve made (recipes here)! This one is no exception. I used the leftover stock from Thanksgiving that I made and it made it that […]
Cornbread Brioche Custard Stuffing
A couple of months ago, we moved to the South (to Florida!) so I wanted to pay tribute to that for our Thanksgiving dinner this year. I made a tropical cranberry sauce and of course a turkey (using a cheese cloth wrap that made it taste diving)! We had a bunch of greens (like these […]
Roasted Balsamic Asparagus
Here’s a quick and easy side dish that requires little work but results in something super tasty! All you have to do is snap off the tough ends, drizzle with some olive oil, balsamic glaze (it’s like super thick balsamic vinegar) and season generously. 🙂 The oven does the rest! I know I’ll be making […]
Quinoa and Roasted Vegetable Salad
We had a lot of veggies to use up and I knew I wanted to make a salad with them for dinner. So, I whipped up some quinoa in the instant pot, roasted the veggies we had on hand and made a delicious salad for dinner. It’s a really versatile salad – you can swap […]
No-Bake Lemon Pie
Who doesn’t love a good, cold pie in the summer? From ice box cakes to grilled fruit to trifle to no-bake berry cakes, I love being able to make a good pie without turning my oven on. Today is no exception! I woke-up this morning and yelled ‘lemon pie’! Trevor thought I was dreaming, any maybe I […]
20-Minute Grilled Lemon-Rosemary Chicken & Leeks
Every now and again, I look forward to tasty, carb-free dinners. I spent so long eating them when I was doing Whole30 in January, that I still look forward to them now (in moderation, of course). If I was doing Whole30 again but in the summer, this is one I would definitely have on repeat. […]
Super-Fast Salmon
When I have my finger on my phone to call for delivery, I know it’s the kind of night where I can’t spend more than 1 minute (yes, really) prepping/cooking dinner. We were at our friend, Amy’s, pool swimming today and it took everything out of me. Swimming with two kids on my own in […]
Strawberry Rhubarb Crumble
I love Spring and Summer. Yes, the weather is amazing. But more importantly, rhubarb is in full bloom. And, my favorite pie of all time to make with it is a strawberry rhubarb pie! I love the combination of these two fruits (as evident by my strawberry rhubarb squares or this Rhubarb Custard Cake that highlights […]
Zucchini & Tomato Frittata
I’ve been in a breakfast rut recently because all I’ve been wanting are cakes for breakfast (which I obviously can’t eat everyday!). So, I wanted to change it up today. I decided to make a veggie packed frittata. I used zucchini and tomatoes from the garden, but you can easily use any veggies you have […]
