Usually all I want to eat during the winter is soups, and chilis. They're comforting, they warm me up, and they make great leftovers. Let's switch it up! How about some pot roast instead? This perfect pot roast checks all of my boxes. It's incredibly warming, and comforting, and it makes great leftovers. The chuck roast is fall-apart tender, the carrots are sweet and succulent, and the potatoes are perfectly cooked. I added mushrooms, which aren't always traditional in a pot roast … [Read more...]
Instant Pot White Chicken Chili (Healthy)
Are ready for another chili recipe? It's a healthy white chicken chili, all made in the instant pot. It's thick and creamy, bursting with veggies, and chicken. It's satisfying, yet light. It's perfection in a bowl. White chicken chili is quite different than the beef chili I made last week, yet, it is very delicious in it's own right. This recipe was originally published in 2018. It was an update from a slow cooker white chicken chili I made in 2016. Since 2018 I have made … [Read more...]
The Best Beef Chili (with Beans)
This beef chili recipe is very special to me. It's based off of my Grandma's chili. Since I have such a great food memory (yes, it's a thing), I never forgot what a steaming bowl of grandma's chili tasted like. It was such a huge part of my childhood. Although, my grandma didn't write the recipe down, my mom told me the gist of how she made it. Making this beef chili has become a tradition of mine. Every year, once the days start to become shorter, and the temperature starts to dive, I … [Read more...]

If you are a fan of this recipe, don't worry, I kept the recipe true to the original with the exception of a few additional ingredients that are listed as optional. Such as, heavy cream, smoked paprika, and an … [Read more...]
Pesto Pasta Salad with Shrimp
Last week I shared one of my all time favorite summer recipes, basil pesto. It's such a great way to use up basil that grows abundantly in the garden this time of year.

It's so incredibly easy to make. This recipe takes 20 minutes to make, 30 minutes, if you need to make the pesto. You can easily make it … [Read more...]

It's officially summer, and nothing says summer, more than a big fat salad that's served chilled. It's Greek chickpea salad time, my friends!!!

Easy Italian Pasta Salad with Salami
If pasta salad doesn't scream summertime, than I don't know what does. Pasta salad is a summertime staple here in the Midwest.

It's got loads of Italian veggies and flavors, all dressed in a zesty Italian vinaigrette. It's ideal for any summertime party situation...or for an easy meal at home. Italian pasta salad is loaded with crunchy veggies, … [Read more...]

The obsession with anything Irish has never left me. It was an experience that shaped who I am today. I … [Read more...]
Salmon Rice Bowl (30 Minutes)
Who else likes a good sushi moment?! This salmon rice bowl IS NOT SUSHI, but for me, it has those deconstructed sushi vibes to it. A similar idea to my smoked salmon sushi bowls - LOVE that recipe too! This salmon rice bowl is essentially cooked salmon and rice, combined with a spicy mayo sauce. The fun part is in the toppings. You use nori sheets, or those little seaweed snack packets (my fave), and add some of the salmon mixture to the seaweed, top it with a slice of avocado, and a few … [Read more...]
