Adeena & Chrissy’s Green Stir Fry

One of my intentions every year is to implement one to two meatless meals into our daily rotation. Not only is eating vegetarian food more sustainable for the environment, it’s a great way to reset your digestive system. Like many people, I was afraid that I wouldn’t feel full or satisfied with plant-based foods only…

Paella Stuffed Peppers

Posting these beauties has been a long time coming! Shout out to our old neighbors Neal and Thais who introduced us to the wonderful world of paella making. Our lovely (and sorely missed) neighbors are some of the most welcoming, kind, and generous people, who moved in next door and immediately made an effort to…

Lemon Chicken Feta Rice Bowls

As a follow up to the crispy feta I shared a few days ago, this is my favorite dish to pair it with! But let me be honest, I cannot take credit for this recipe. The basis of this one is the one and only Tiegen from Half Baked Harvest. She has inspired me to…

Not that everything is going horribly, no we are not in the dumps yet,…

Spicy Basil Chicken Larb

This is one of Nick’s favorite meals. There are only two things we order takeout from and this is the recipe that included 50% of the time. So I was determined to learn how to make it on my own. This recipe is tried and true. I have made it too many times to count,…

Pork Jook

Jook. Juk. Congee. Rice porridge. Named differently based on the region of Asia in which it is made, the type of rice used, and the water-to-rice ratio, there are just as many ways or techniques to make jook as there are names. I was first introduced to this delightful comfort food by my mother-in-law. It’s…

Traditional Thai Green Curry

Happy 2024 everyone!As I reflect on the past year, the highs were high and the lows… felt like bad lows in the moment but were honestly, not all that bad. So I will call it a win. If you’re 2023 was a low, I hope 2024 brings you a renewed sense of vitality, creativity, and…

Prosciutto Chicken and Arugula

Staying on my prosciutto hype this month is a crowd-pleasing dish you can easily whip up for a crowd when you are tired of the usual holiday fare or strapped on time but have lots of hungry mouths to feed! Okay, I am keeping the rambling short and sweet for this quick entree that is…
