It feels a bit like a stretch to call this a chili honestly – but it is quite good. It is also wildly easy and that is why I’ll probably make this again and again. We were expecting some snow earlier this week. I found this recipe on SkinnyTaste and was drawn to the fact…
Feel free to file this recipe under “wonderful for Sunday meal prep”. It was a total home run and could not have been easier to pull together. I had all of these ingredients on hand which made it even better. This recipe was made even easier by the use of my very handy cookie scooper.…
I took a health survey earlier this week that strongly recommended I eat more vegetables. I failed at that for several days until today. A trip to Trader Joes for some cauliflower and a nice new recipe that I found on the internet. I used to get a lot of my inspiration from Food52 but…

Probably about 6 years ago, I made my first chicken tagine. I’ve always reflected positively on that meal. The flavors of a tagine are just incredible – and really all without my favorite sins of salt, butter, or cheese. I tore out this chicken tagine recipe from Real Simple relatively recently and got around to…
Eating healthy? So complex. I’ve never really watched what I ate all that much because I’ve always been just active enough that it hasn’t been critical. Yes, it’s always advisable to not eat chicken fingers every Friday night but when I was walking 5 miles a day to and from work… I could do what…
I never thought I would put pesto into a soup – but now I’ve done it … and it’s delicious. Turns out you don’t need a ton of ingredients or sodium for a flavorful soup. It’s pretty clear that I’m back on the soup train hard these days. One of the amazing things about my…
I’ve been doing some very adult things recently – both thinking and doing. The opposite of all that is probably making alphabet soup – but I don’t care. Life is about balance. And I’ll be pretty well balanced for about 6 meals after this giant pot of child’s soup. This weekend was the first one…
I tend to skew towards very hearty soups. I want something that feels like a meal – not something that requires a part two. Unless that part two is a grilled cheese or anything with cheese for that matter. All that being said, there is a season fast approaching that requests I not cover myself…
While I was always in a quest for good leftover meals, this challenge means even more to me now. I love things that are seemingly well balanced meals and re-heat in 90 seconds. I don’t get home until after 7:30 and there is no sense in even imagining a world where I’m cooking a meal…
