Chicken with Thai Peanut Sauce
I love peanut sauce, do you? Luckily, I’m not allergic to nuts, because I love all the peanut components to Thai food. Today, I’m sharing an easy chicken recipe with a thai peanut sauce. The original recipe has the chicken on skewers, but I didn’t put mine on skewers. The original recipe also has the sauce as a dipping sauce and I drizzled the sauce on top of my chicken just to keep things easier especially since I wasn’t skewering them. Other than the skewers, the only other thing I changed from the original recipe is that I used ground ginger instead of fresh because when I was making this…

Turkey Chili & Fries
The weather is starting to get warmer, but with being stuck inside so much lately I think we can all use some comfort food. Chili is one of those comfort foods for so many. I’ve shared a chili recipe on here before – a family recipe. This time I’m sharing an equally delicious chili that I’ve been making for about a year. I found this recipe on Pinterest last year and it’s so good, I’ve made it multiple times and I’m actually planning to make it later this week! For this recipe you’ll need: olive oil onion garlic bell pepper ground turkey chili powder cumin dried oregano cayenne pepper salt…

Korean Beef over Rice
I don’t know about you, but I love the flavors of Korean meat. Last year I tried out this recipe that I found for Korean Beef over Rice and it is extremely easy and tasty! It’s the perfect weeknight meal and is an easy meal for you to throw together with items you may have available already during this quarantine. I followed the recipe exactly the first time I made it and I pretty much follow it still today, with one tiny little tweak. For this recipe you’ll need: ground beef garlic brown sugar soy sauce ground ginger salt & pepper crush red pepper rice green onions sesame oil First,…

Cabbage Rolls
Cabbage isn’t for everyone, but I love it. I’ve had cabbage rolls out at restaurants before, but when I saw an “easy” cabbage roll recipe on Pinterest (the recipe is literally called “Easy Cabbage Rolls”) I had to try it! I followed the recipe almost exactly so click on the link for all the in-depth instructions! The only thing I changed was that I used all pork for the stuffing instead of a pork/beef mix. And I used 1 medium onion instead of 2 small. Other than that, I followed the recipe! First, boil your cabbage leaves for about 2 minutes to make them soft and pliable. Set aside and…

Chicken Enchiladas
As most of us returned to work yesterday, I hope your days went well! My day went pretty smoothly except for the fire alarm going off and standing outside in the cold rain for about 10 minutes. By the time I got home from work hours later my hair was still not completely dry! Moving on to today’s post. Love enchiladas? What’s great about enchiladas is that there are so many different combinations you can do. For these chicken enchiladas I followed this recipe and it’s so easy to do. Following the recipe, I sautéed green chiles and onions with salt and pepper and then added in shredded chicken. Once that was…

Meatloaf
Meatloaf gets a bad rap sometimes as bad cafeteria food, but it’s one of my favorite comfort foods. And if you make it yourself it can be extremely tasty. Today I’m sharing photos of how I make meatloaf using my mom’s recipe that she’s been using for years. First, I start off with meatloaf mix (veal, pork, and beef) and italian breadcrumbs. Then, I add in 1 egg, sauteed onion, parsley, salt and pepper and mix with my hands. Once it’s all incorporated I move it onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and shape it into the meatloaf shape. For the meatloaf glaze I mix ketchup, mustard, brown…

Spinach & Mushroom Stuffed Chicken
How’s everyone’s week going so far? I can’t believe it’s already Thursday! I’m trying to savor this last 1+ week before I go back to work. I have a food post for you all today and I filmed it as well for a short less than 2 minute video! Of course, I also have some pictures for you to walk you through this easy dish. I diced some tomatoes, cut the spinach into smaller pieces, and cooked and cut up the mushrooms ahead of time. Put the ingredients inside the chicken breasts and be careful not to overstuff them because then it will be hard to close them up. Dust…

Mexican Stuffed Shells
I’ve got a new food post for you all this evening! I don’t know why, but with football season, people (myself included) love eating all kinds of cheesy foods. While a lot of the time the foods tend to be more of the finger food variety – I suppose for easy eating? – the food post I have for you today is not finger food friendly. Today, I bring you Mexican Stuffed Shells. I’ve been making these for a good three or four years now and to this day I think it is one of the yummiest things ever. There are so many different recipes for these stuffed shells and I remember…

Paella
Paella is one of my favorite dishes and I love that if you make it yourself you can really make it your own, just like with any dish. After a lot of trial and error over the years, I have it pretty much down. Read on to see step by step photos! In my paella I use: shrimp, mussels, clams, chicken, chicken broth, sausage, garlic, onions, saffron, peas and short grain rice. In a paella pan, I pour in uncooked rice, the chicken and sausage. Next, I pour the broth and saffron into the paella pan. Paella pans are very wide and shallow. Once the broth starts to bubble, I…
