When the weather turns cold, I love to make soups, stews, and … chili. Chili is one of my favorite cold-weather dishes to make. This dish is super flexible, so you can go with what you have on hand. You can create a myriad of dishes with the leftovers, too, if it lasts that long… Continue reading Instant Pot Game Day Chili

One-Pot Ground Beef Stroganoff
I love when my family makes dinner requests! It’s not that I don’t like cooking, but sometimes I get tired of trying to figure out what to make. When they’ll tell me what they’re hungry for, it’s much simpler – and then I’m sure that everyone will like it! That’s one reason I like this… Continue reading One-Pot Ground Beef Stroganoff
Creamy Wild Rice Soup
I was a super picky eater as a kid. I didn’t like anything that had multiple types of ingredients. I was rather happy about having eating patterns that resembled my great-grandfather’s, and we happily avoided things like vegetable soup. Then I went to college. While it was still very possible to eat well with my… Continue reading Creamy Wild Rice Soup
Garlic Alfredo Pasta
Every night’s a good night for pasta, right? When a meeting got thrown into the mix at the last minute, the meal I had planned wouldn’t work. I was stumped – I had a beautiful, cook-and-serve-immediately dinner on the brain, and now we needed something that could be prepped ahead of time. That’s where… Continue reading Garlic Alfredo Pasta
Slow Cooker Mongolian Chicken
That’s why I was excited to find this recipe. It sounded so good to me – and yet we didn’t have all of the original ingredients, so we played around a little bit. We ended up with something that takes a few minutes to throw together and then cooks on its own. There are… Continue reading Slow Cooker Mongolian Chicken
Healthy Burrito Bowls

At the very last minute, I needed to change things up, and these burrito bowls were the result. We really liked them. The veggies… Continue reading Healthy Burrito Bowls

Parmesan Potato Soup
A few months ago my family had one of those really awful, horrible, no-good very bad days. We had to put our puppy to sleep, and with my husband working out of town that day, the task of taking her to the vet and the subsequent burial was all mine (although my very sweet MIL… Continue reading Parmesan Potato Soup
Chicken Pot Pie Soup
I used to make chicken pot pie on Fridays during the winter. The kids would watch a movie if they’d had a good week, and since my husband worked late, I could spend a bit more time on dinner. After a while, though, although we all liked the dish, I wanted to make it faster.… Continue reading Chicken Pot Pie Soup
Chicken Corn Soup
At home in Pennsylvania this soup is really popular, and whenever I’m hungry for home I make Chicken Corn Soup. There isn’t anything simpler, but it’s sweet and comforting and hearty without being heavy. As My Little Man moved from being a toddler into the preschool years, I began to make soup again (I unconsciously avoided them… Continue reading Chicken Corn Soup
