I love cooking with olive oil. Not only is it an easy way to make something look and sound fancy, but it’s also incredibly versatile and really good for you. Why do you think the Mediterranean diet is so popular? When I partnered with Spanish Olive Oil Interprofessional on their […]

Honey Bread w/Cinnamon & Butter
Ok so, this is one of my favorite things in the world to eat. I have to credit one of my exes for this one, unfortunately. Actually I have to credit his mom. Evidently she used to make him this when he was sick, and now, I make it for […]
Chicken Lettuce Wraps with Avocado
Before I jump in to this deliciousness, let me state, for the record, that this recipe is adapted from Chrissy Tiegen’s cookbook, Cravings. I have a large collection of cookbooks that I draw inspiration from and this one is no exception. When I opened the page to “french toast casserole […]
Instant Pot Lemon Chicken Breasts
So I can’t stop making things in the Instant Pot. It’s an addiction. I may need help. But whatever it’s just so easy! Not to mention I’m really satisfied with myself here because this dish came out GREAT and has no butter or flour in the sauce. It’s basically “au […]
Instant Pot Sweet Potato & Black Bean Chili
I should probably mention that this recipe DOES have meat in it. It has both ground turkey and ground beef. I think calling it “Sweet Potato & Black Bean Chili” makes it sound vegetarian. Sorry. On the flipside, I’m sure you could omit the meat. You could also just make […]
Spaghetti all’Amatriciana
I have been ordering this dish for years and I still don’t think I’m saying it right. It’s a bit of a tongue twister, but it’s worth the risk of sounding stupid. Because it’s delicious. The main ingredients that make this dish, at least traditionally, are guanciale (pork cheek), tomatoes, and […]
Strawberry Banana & Peanut Butter Overnight Oats
Another overnight oat recipe for the books! Sorry I’m not sorry that I love these recipes. It makes me feel better about my love for all things bacon and cheese. You know the deal with overnight oats: you put a little of this, a little of that, mix it all […]
Instant Pot Honey Garlic Chicken
It’s time for another Instant Pot recipe! Guess you could say I’m officially obsessed. This one is a delicious, sweet and savory honey-garlic sauce that cooks down with chicken breast and becomes absolutely tender and perfect. Most recipes for honey garlic chicken in the Instant Pot use chicken thighs, and […]
Chunky Monkey Overnight Oats
If you’re a Ben & Jerry’s fan, you know what I was going for here. Chunky Monkey ice cream is one of my favorite flavors, so I thought I’d try to replicate it in my overnight oats. And the result? GREAT SUCCESS. Here’s what I will say about it: […]
Instant Pot Spaghetti Squash w Turkey Meatballs
First off, you will probably love this recipe. Just had to get that out of the way. Second, I had to make this recipe twice. Because the first time I had to troubleshoot a bit. The Instant Pot is a little tricky to understand at first (at least for me […]
