Chicken with peanut sauce is one of my favorite dishes when we get Thai food. I almost always get it. This recipe came out okay- I would make more sauce to pour over the dish, or have some on the side as these noodles really soaked up the sauce. Otherwise, it was pretty delicious. I…

Honey Mustard Chicken, Avocado & Bacon Salad
I’m always looking for ways to be more creative with my salads. I am famous for my salads. I can look in the fridge, pull out some veggies and fruit, grab some ingredients out of the cabinet and throw it all together. I know how to balance out crunchy, sweet, salty, creamy- it’s a gift,…
Butter Chicken with Homemade GF Naan
Okay guys. I hope you’re ready for this one. As I’ve mentioned before, Indian food is a big hit in my house and my husband is always asking me to make it. If you’ve never had Indian food, butter chicken might be a good place for you to start. It has a much more mild…

My family loves curries and I don’t make them often enough. I especially love Thai food and this dish definitely has this vibe. It is extremely easy to make, it’s a beautiful color so it’s pleasing to the eye, and can be paired with either rice, cauliflower rice, or whatever your choice is. This recipe…
Pulled Buffalo Chicken Salad
This is a really great summer recipe. It’s really easy to make when you get home and it’s a blast of flavor in your mouth. I find that it’s not too spicy, but it satisfies everyone on the spice-spectrum. You can make this recipe as is or exchange some of the veg ingredients. I also…

Lunch Ideas- Jaqi’s Fat Salad
My husband and I do a lot of meal prep on the weekends to cut down what we have to do during the week. We usually have a “cooking party” on Sunday afternoons in the kitchen- getting breakfast and lunches ready (as much as we can) for the week. This week, “Jaqi’s Fat Salad” was…
Slow Cooker Chicken
That’s right- slow cooker chicken. Didn’t know you could put a whole chicken in a slow cooker and eat like a king during the week, did you?? I sure didn’t. And I can tell you- I was impressed. This was a really easy recipe. The house smelled amazing when I got home from work and…
“Healthy” Fried Chicken
Healthy and fried usually don’t belong in the same thought, let alone the same sentence. But it IS possible to eat your favorite, unhealthy foods and cook them in a healthy way. This was honestly the best fried chicken I’ve ever had in my life. Of course it made a mess in my already messy…
