You know when you go to Homegoods and spend half of your money on knick knacks and candles? Well, this recipe is a product of my desire to create something that smells like a Homegoods candle and tastes like one of those popcorn mixes they have in that ONE aisle. […]

Pantry Pasta – Spaghetti w/Garlic, Olive Oil & Tomato Paste
I make this pasta all the time. To the point where people ask if I make anything else to share on my Instagram stories. In my defense, it’s just so damn easy. It’s essentially the Garlic/Olive Oil pasta from the movie Chef, which I’ve posted already a while ago, but […]
Chicken Cutlet Sandwiches with Lemon-Basil Mayo
For me, few things are more enjoyable to eat than a simple chicken cutlet sandwich. Perfectly fried with those crisp, salty edges, topped off with lettuce, tomato, thinly sliced red onion, and in this case, lemon-basil mayo. How can you not love that? I’m fine with regular mayo honestly, but […]
Meatball Parm Phyllo Cups (Meatless)
Before I dive in, let me preface this by saying that you don’t have to use frozen meatballs for this, and you sure as shit don’t have to use meatless meatballs. I just have to watch my meat intake for health purposes, so here we are. THAT SAID. I’m not […]
Sweet & Spicy Pizza Wontons
Who doesn’t love pizza? And who doesn’t love wontons? These are the questions I asked myself before making these little guys. I was inspired by my love of Totinos Pizza Rolls, and wanted to try reinventing them with some different flavors. Enter: pizza with spicy honey. I mixed ricotta cheese […]
Baked Eggs with Potatoes and Vegan Cheddar Cheese
Alright I’m going to level with you – I don’t make a ton of things with vegan products. For those of you who know me, that’s probably not a huge shock, but I’ve been experimenting a bit more here and there (due to slightly elevated cholesterol levels), and I’ve actually […]
Football Snacks: Skillet Buffalo Chicken Dip
I have been craving Buffalo Chicken Dip like crazy lately, and then it dawned on me: it’s because my stomach knows it’s football season. I’ve made Buffalo Chicken Taquitos before, but not the actual dip by itself. Weird, right? So I did what any normal person would do and ran […]
Air Fryer Spanakopita Triangles
One of the most delicious things ever, but definitely a labor of love. You can go right ahead and blame the phyllo dough for this one. It’s one of those mystery doughs – I have no idea how they get it like that, but I’m not going to question it. […]
That Sexy Garlic & Olive Oil Pasta (Aglio e Olio) from Chef (the Movie)
How else am I supposed to describe this pasta? Just Aglio e Olio? BORING. I know that’s technically what it is, but I don’t care. I’ve had a hard day and this was quite literally the only thing that went right. Fuck, it may be the only thing of 2020 […]
Whole Roasted Cauliflower w/Roasted Garlic Tahini Drizzle
First things first: I’ll admit I was winging the roasted garlic tahini drizzle situation and not measuring, but I can tell you that it was very close to my Tahini Ranch. I didn’t add onion powder, garlic powder, or cayenne in this one, but that’s because I happened to have […]
