I’m sharing my VERY favorite chicken recipe today! I love this tender juicy chicken covered in a golden brown nutty coating that is full of flavor. Simply delicious and so easy to make. I pray for leftovers so I can have it the next day too. So will you! Yep…it’s THAT good!
Main Dishes
I love Italian food and I love seafood! Especially shrimp! So what could be better than to combine my two great loves into one perfect amazing dish?
Shrimp Scampi with Linguine is just that dish! It’s easy to make, yet so elegant you can serve it for a dinner party. It’s an impressive dish without a lot of fuss. Which is good! Because, if you have kids around, you have enough “fussing” going on! Am I right, or am I right?!!!
As a food blogger I see hundreds of new recipes every week. It’s just part of the job, and one I absolutely enjoy. I love seeing what other bloggers are busy creating in their kitchens. Last week I spotted this luscious looking dish! Everything about it looked amazing! From the crispy golden pan seared chicken thighs (I love the flavor of chicken thighs) to the scrumptious sweet honey garlic sauce! The word “Easy” was thrown in for added enticement and I took the bait! I’m SO glad I did! You will be too! This is one amazingly easy, flavorful, and inexpensive dish! You have got to try this one friends! Trust me. You do don’t ya?
I love a recipe that can be made into two different meals. Both equally delicious. Life is crazy busy so if I can get two meals out of one recipe I’m all in! How about you?
These stuffed shells bounce off the back of my recipe for Crock Pot Meatballs With Sauce. One night you can have meatball subs or spaghetti and meatballs, the other these amazing cheese stuffed shells, covered in sauce with tender Parmesan and beef meatballs. It’s the perfect dish to add your busy weeknight meal plan!
I love food! All food…but I really love comfort food! I know… it’s a word that’s tossed around a lot in the blogging world, but in all fairness, I have to say that the majority of foods fill a need. For some it’s comfort, for others happiness, joy, sorrow, sadness, or stress. I mean food feeds our emotions, as well as our bellies! If it didn’t there wouldn’t be so many foodies out there all looking for that one optimal dish.
One of my favorite “comfort” foods is Chicken Pot Pie. Maybe it’s the memories of those little frozen pies by banquet when I was kid, or maybe it’s because the combination of ingredients is like Thanksgiving in a pie shell? Whatever the reason, it’s still a favorite. I spent years looking for the perfect recipe and then just decided to make my own. I wanted one loaded with “the good stuff”! Lots of meat, vegetables, and a creamy gravy, all packed inside the perfect flaky crust. I hope you’ll agree…this pot pie is the perfect “comfort food”!
We’re kicking Monday off right! I have the perfect easy weeknight recipe for your Nest. Easy Chicken Parmesan! I discovered this recipe years ago while sitting in the dentist office! (Yuck!) Of course I had to add my own twist and kick it up a notch or two, but it’s still super simple to throw together and it’s sure to be a hit at your dinner table!
I don’t know about you, but I am super busy cleaning and preparing for the big “Turkey” day… which is right around the corner. The last thing on my mind is what to fix for dinner! (Right?) I’m here to help with that. I’ve got a simple and yummy dinner recipe the whole family will love! Crock Pot Chicken Tacos are the perfect week night dinner when things are crazy and you just don’t have time to cook. You will love how easy they are and… the family will love how delicious they are! You can do Taco Tuesday any time! It’s say’s so in the mommy handbook right under “What to do when your child’s crayon goes through the dryer…again!” 😉
Who doesn’t love Mexican Food?! What’s not to love! All that ooey-gooey cheese, shredded meat, beans, and rich flavorful sauces! Stuff that inside a crispy crunchy golden flour tortilla and top it off with more sauce, melted cheese, maybe a little more cheese,…maybe a little more, and you have a the ultimate in Chimichanga’s. What I like to call the Grand Daddy of the Burrito family!
Who wants to make the “World’s Best Lasagna”? Huh?… Okay…who wants to EAT the World’s Best Lasagna?! You gotta make it to eat it! 😉 I know lasagna seems daunting and time consuming…and… it is! But, Ohhhhh…it’s so worth it! Every rich, creamy, flavorful mouthful reminds you that it was worth every bit of effort, and even if you don’t want to make the lasagna, you have got to check out the sauce. The sauce is TO.DIE.FOR! (It is Halloween….what pun did you expect me to go for?) You can put this sauce on any pasta and have a party in your mouth!
I’m throwing down this amazing simple and delicious fried rice recipe! Right smack dab in the middle of “Fall Fest”! You’re probably scratching your head and wondering why? It’s simple really…because a reader asked me to! One of the most important things to me in this blogging journey is my readers! It was the nudge I desperately needed. I’ve been saying for weeks I was going to get “around to it”…(the list is long folks) so, today I finally did! All you need is to bring the fortune cookies! The rest is as easy as 1-2-3! I promise…it’s better than take-out!
