Pretty sure I’ve mentioned before my weather related anxiety? It basically goes like this – on beautiful days I feel that I must spend hours outdoors and if/when I’m prohibited, I feel as if I’ve “missed out” and will never experience those moments in exactly the same way again. On cold or rainy days,...
Taco Tuesday is a common idea and though we love Mexican food, it’s not one we enjoy. I never seem to have the right ingredients on hand, all at the same time. Recently we ate at a friend’s house and Tessa loved her tacos there so much that she’s been asking for them on...
Notice this is not “baked enchiladas”. That would be entirely different and most definitely more time consuming, what with all the filling and rolling. This is another one dish dinner, and though I made mine cheesy (it can be downright depressing to avoid both gluten and dairy), I’ll tell you how easy it would...
I’ve been considering once a week chili for the cooler months of the year. Why? It’s healthy, the whole fam enjoys it, it comes together quickly, and it’s naturally gluten and dairy free (we don’t avoid dairy but you might). Also, this just in, there are about a thousand versions you can make.
“Volumetrics” at its finest. What is volumetrics, you ask? It’s eating large quantities of food with a high level of nutrients for a low level of calories. It’s what hungry girls like me do on a daily basis without even realizing it anymore. Can’t tell you how nice it was to dig into a “bowl”...
OH man. I’ve found my new go-to app. It’s crowd pleasing, naturally gluten free, and hearty enough to keep a pretty big group of people satisfied – kids included (Tessa’s a big fan). I got the idea from my favorite enchilada recipe and barely adapted the amounts to make it just a bit creamier,...
This recipe is a favorite of the Norbury family though it was originally from this website. Carrie has made some changes over time so I took her suggestions, plus made several of my own. These were absolutely delicious, and though it seems like a long list of ingredients, most of them are in your...
Another Beth recipe! She sent me this recipe for weeknight crockpot chili and, though I have a crockpot chili on my site already, this deserves a place as well. Let me explain…
Though I’ve had my reservations about my crock pot (steamed vegetables are gross), there is no doubt that crock pot chili is where it’s at. This recipe is easy enough for a weeknight (no browning the meat!), but tasty enough for company. You’ll notice that I haven’t posted chili yet on my site –...
For me this could be called “Grower’s Market” chili. I often get organic ground chicken from the meat guy and most of these veggies are readily available at the springtime market. This came together shockingly quick and was the perfect weeknight dinner. I think I’ve said this before but if/when cooking for folks who...
