One Dish Chicken & Veggie Bake

My friend Jennifer is a fabulous cook. Pretty much everything she makes I ask her for the recipe.  She made us this one dish chicken & veggie bake and let me just tell you it was incredible.  It seems unassuming, but it is packed full of flavor. The best part is you only use one […]

Oven Baked Tacos

If you’ve been reading my blog for a little while now, you know how much I love to make Mexican food at home.  I’m always on the lookout for a new twist or a new dish to use those wonderful combination of flavors.  There’s just something about that avocado, cilantro and fresh toppings paired with […]

Hamburger Steak with Mushroom Gravy

During this pregnancy, I’ve been craving beef quite a bit.  I don’t normally eat that much beef but I can’t seem to get enough lately.  We grill out burgers a lot, but I wanted to have something a little bit different and more comforting.  My mom made hamburger steak with gravy quite a bit growing […]

Mini Corn Dog Muffins

I was reading through my Google Reader last week and saw these corn dogs on Chef-In-Training, which look amazing! I’ve been wanting one ever since.  Well, frying makes me a bit nervous since I’ve definitely had a big frying fail before, and I remembered these cute little baked corn dog mini muffins and thought that was the […]

I’ve made BBQ Chicken taquitos, but I was looking for an easy dinner to make with some leftover shredded chicken and I thought it would be the perfect time to try the traditional creamy taquitos that have been floating around the internet.  These were so creamy and we loved them topped with salsa, sour cream […]

Healthier Chicken Fried Rice

I’m not a huge Chinese food person.  I like about 3 entrees of chinese: beef & broccoli, lettuce wraps and I absolutely LOVE chicken fried rice! Especially the kind from the mall food court, right?! But it is super greasy and I can’t imagine how many calories, so I thought I would try an at […]

Veggie Skillet Lasagna

This was another fabulous quick and easy weeknight dinner.  It took much less time than making the sauce and layering everything together like traditional lasagna.  I love that you can adapt this to use your favorite veggies or add in meat if you like.  This might be one of my favorite new meals!!  I just […]

Pizza Quesadillas

I mentioned last week that I’ve been looking for some new, quick & easy meals to make on weeknights. So anytime I find one that I think sounds fantastic I pin it.  Well this week, I’ve been trying to actually make some of the things that I’ve pinned.  So hopefully, if I get my projects […]
