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”
Spicy Honey-Mustard Dressing for One
Homemade salad dressing is the bomb. It’s wicked easy to make, cheap, and helps prevent plastic waste! AND most importantly it’s delicious. This is a single serving recipe but you can also make a larger batch and store it in the fridge. You can also try a thicker, higher protein version with Greek yogurt. ThisContinue reading “Spicy Honey-Mustard Dressing for One”
Whole Wheat Tortilla Chips
We made an insane amount of pita chips for our wedding but I’ve never tried tortilla chips till today! These are so good and take just 10 minutes in the toaster oven and this recipe is for one tortilla but you can make as many as you’re hungry for. They can also either be sweetContinue reading “Whole Wheat Tortilla Chips”

I’m kicking myself right now that I haven’t made more crock-pot chicken. Or used a crock-pot regularly, period! It’s literally the quickest and easiest way to make juicy, flavorful, chicken. This pulled BBQ chicken is super versatile (and husband-approved)! Serve it over rice, in a taco, wrap, on a roll, or on a pizza orContinue reading “Crock-Pot BBQ Chicken”

Chicken, Red Onion & Feta Pita Pizza
I’m doing less and less cooking on the stove or in the oven with summer being upon us (in a little south-facing apartment that we don’t want to run the A/C in all day). When we were building our wedding registry we just happened to go for a toaster oven instead of a toaster andContinue reading “Chicken, Red Onion & Feta Pita Pizza”
Crock Pot Split Pea Soup
I was that weird kid who loved split pea soup as a kid! I practically lived on it in college because a dollar bag of split peas could get me through a week of dinners. Now there’s a little more variety in my diet (haha) but I still love me a steaming bowl of thisContinue reading “Crock Pot Split Pea Soup”
Microwave Baked Potatoes
When I’m planning or preparing a meal, I’ve got three things to think about: protein + carb + veggie. That’s basically how I approach lunch and dinner and I mix and match lots of different options! Potatoes are an awesome versatile starch. You have probably heard someone say that they are a vegetable but fromContinue reading “Microwave Baked Potatoes”
Quick Smoky Shrimp
Looking to vary your proteins up a little bit? This recipe is super quick and easy and can be incorporated into so many dishes!
