If you have not tried a bao bun, please let me introduce you to these amazing treats. Think light fluffy dough steamed to perfection and filled with your favorite toppings. I love bites of fried chicken in mine, but our entire family agreed this pork belly recipe was one of our new favorites! I am […]
The BEST Roasted Chicken
Roasted chicken is always on repeat in our house. It is simple, fairly easy, perfect for meal prep, and always a crowd pleaser. We are lucky to live near an organic chicken farm and usually have organic young whole chickens available at the grocery store. This is going to make a huge difference in the […]
Steak Pita Wraps
What is better than steak and fries? How about steak and fries wrapped up in a warm pita with a jalapeno herb sauce? This is probably one of my favorite recipes we have made with the ooni oven to date! You definitely do not need to make pitas from scratch, but if you have the […]
Tomato Herb Risotto
As soon as it gets cold outside, I start craving comfort food. Specifically cheesy comfort food. While tomatoes are not known to be a winter veggie these cherry tomatoes are easy to find and make the perfect sauce for risotto! I was always terrified of risotto after watching way too many failed Top Chef dishes. […]
Parmigiana Chicken with wine sauce
We love a good pasta dish especially when the weather cools down. This dish gives you all the flavor with less calories than most Italian restaurants. Crispy chicken tenders with a parmigiana crust top our capellini with garlic and mushrooms. Best part of this recipe is you can add or swap ingredients. Don’t like mushrooms? […]
Caramelized Onion and Beef Pizza
Pizza is a huge hit in our house! We love making it at home and changing up the toppings. This pizza plays off classic flavors, but it just a little more special with sweet caramelized onions, crispy ground beef, and calabria chilies. You can use whatever cheese you love, but I really like the Tillamook […]
Easy Empanadas with Jalapeño Dip
There is a Cuban restaurant around the corner that makes super simple delicious empanadas. Beef or chicken, crunchy with an amazing dip. I do not know anything about an authentic empanada, but I do know what would go well with a similar dip. My version has roasted onion, potatoes, butternut squash, ground beef, and mozzarella. […]
Instapot Creamy Tomato Soup with Caramelized Onions
Is it cold where you are? We are in Georgia and it was 70 degrees on Christmas, but today it is 24 degrees. I love the cold because it makes me feel like it is okay to stay in the holiday spirit for just a littttle bit longer! This soup is perfect for the cold […]
Low Carb Pesto Chicken Quesadilla
Sometimes I just really crave pasta. Something about a big bowl of noodles with garlic bread is so comforting after a long day. Pesto specifically has been on my mind. Since I’ve been eating low carb low sugar I typically only have pasta once a month if that. I had to find an alternative that […]
Smoked Pork Sliders
Do you ever shop the bargain cook book section at Barnes and Nobles? I get suckered in every time! I came home with two cook books the other day that are filled with inspiration. Since I’ve been doing Keto I feel like I was in a cooking rut. These buns clearly are not low carb, […]
