Baked Hasselbeck Chicken & Poblano Skillet

As I sit here at the airport waiting on my first flight ALONE since having a baby, I am feeling quite emotional and reflective on the past 8ish months. I cannot believe time has flown by so quickly. And yet, it feels like years since I have sat at the bar of an airport without…

Hot Honey Chicken Burgers

Is it just me or does the internet like to jump into the fall season wayyy too early every year? I cannot tell you how much it irks me to see influencers posting fall recipes right now… August is still the summer! And if anything, September is when it really feels like summer here in…

Chicken Artichoke Bean Soup

I love a good summer soup. Mostly because soups are so easy to make. And this one is no exception. It is also exceptionally delicious! This is one of those recipes that I threw together at the end the week because I had a hodge podge of ingredients around and couldn’t deal with more than…

Grilled Chicken & Corn Salad

What gives off a more summer vibe then grilled chicken and corn? Until recently I haven’t really given much thought to summer recipes versus winter ones.

I could probably chalk this obsession up…

Salsa Verde Shredded Chicken Enchilada Bake

Well, last week I started work and this week we have a bout of chicken pox in our household! So needless to say, it’s been a wild few days. And unfortunately, we are still in the thick of it. Nothing like a few sleepless nights and conference call-packed mornings to really shock the system back…

Effortless Pesto Kale Quiche

Well it’s official, your girl is back at work! Part excited. Part exhausted already. Definitely nostalgic for the early days of babyhood. But mostly energized to tap back into the adult world. Don’t quote me on that though, I may be over it in a few short weeks, relishing my slow days walking the streets…

Crustless Chicken Pot Pie Skillet

I thought long and hard about what to call this one… and am still not convinced it’s the right name! On theme with the last two weeks, when I was on maternity leave I spent the time to try some of the harder recipes I have been wanting to make from the cookbooks collecting dust…
