I had my heart set on baked ziti until I realized that we were out of penne so baked spaghetti it was! Just like baked ziti this is an easy meal to prepare, is great made ahead, and both reheats and freezes well. Recipe notes: I used 1 lb of mozzarella with about a cupContinue reading “Spaghetti Bake”

Easy Baked Frittata
I kinda feel entitled to giving you a chicken update with every egg-based post so here goes it!

Pizza Bagel
I am all about pizza in any shape or form. On a pita, in a pocket made out of a tortilla, on stale Italian bread, and now on a bagel! All of these options are super delicious and only take a few minutes to throw together. You can keep it classic with just sauce andContinue reading “Pizza Bagel”
Easy Garlic Jalapeño Refrigerator Pickles
You guys I made pickles for the first time ever and it was SO easy and SO delicious I have to share! The house we closed on a month ago came with 5 chickens and a massive garden and pretty soon we had cucumbers coming out of our ears. I’ve always wanted to try toContinue reading “Easy Garlic Jalapeño Refrigerator Pickles”
Easiest Pesto Pasta
When we first starting exploring the yard at our new house, I noticed a few sad looking basil plants along the potato patch. Side note: I’ve learned that chickens kind of eat everything—like my chives, baby Swiss chard, baby lettuce—but only when they feel like it. So they miraculously left my plants alone for weeksContinue reading “Easiest Pesto Pasta”
Lemon Butter Chicken

Fueling notes: Pre-workout: pair with 1/4, 1/3, or 1/2 plate of carbs (for a light, moderate, or hard day) 2-4 hours before your session Post workout: again pairContinue reading “Lemon Butter Chicken”

So we inherited five chickens (and a garden) with the house we closed on about two months ago! We named them Hen-Solo, Meg-hen, Henneth Paltrow, Dolly Part-hen, and Hei Hei (seriously so proud of myself). They’ve kinda become my favorite thing! Hei Hei is missing at least half her feathers since she’s at the bottomContinue reading “Easy Spinach, Onion & Cheddar Frittata”
Easy Beef Stroganoff
My dad is from Italy and my mom is from England so there are a lot of things I didn’t eat growing up (like chicken parm, most kinds of casseroles, and pasta dishes like beef stroganoff). It’s been super fun to explore new things so I’m always stoked about what we’re eating! Recipe notes: IfContinue reading “Easy Beef Stroganoff”
