We eat A LOT of guacamole. Like, a lot. Every once in a while it's nice to have something just a little different and this hits the spot. 🥑🥑

Do you like curried chicken salad? I had never had one that I liked, so I made up this one! Perfect blend of sweet, sour, tangy, curry!

Sweet n sour (and spicy because that's the way we do in our house! 🤣) chicken meatballs

I wanted something a little more complex than sweet and sour that you get carry-out, so I added some ingredients to bang up the umami and did it ever!

Sourdough Cinnamon Raisin Bread

I guess I should call this sourdough-ish because the heavy lifting of the rise is done by commercial yeast. The perfect blend of sweet balanced by sourdough flavor.

An updated classic, this dip has 3 kinds of onions and all kinds of beefy flavor. You know how I know it's delicious? My husband said "I can't stop eating this" and had it for dessert after dinner (instead of ICE CREAM!!) Ok he's crazy 🙃

French toast- This one is turned up to 11, with homemade sourdough-ish cinnamon raisin bread (I say ish because commercial yeast does the heavy rising, the sourdough is just for flavor).

The romaine in this salad is just ever so slightly grilled, and the dressing is a nice creamy and tangy horseradish flavored dressing. The three elements really pair up very nicely!

This Thai Chicken salad has amazing marinated chicken and peanuts for incredible flavor. 😋😋

Prepping the chicken ahead of time really saves time on a weeknight when I'm trying to keep my crap all together!!

Have you ever had Crawfish Monica? If not, and you love Cajun food you must try it. The rich cream sauce really compliments crawfish! 🦞🦞

This recipe is relatively traditional, but I have updated it to be cooked in the Instant Pot

I love taking a classic dish and putting a bit of a modern spin on it. Here is Steak Diane, but updated from the '50s traditional recipe to a sous vide recipe. The steak comes out amazingly flavorful and SO tender!

What is your favorite kind of macaroni salad? I personally *love* a traditional sweet macaroni salad, but here I was going for something a little bit more savory and fresher.

It's kind of amazing but the kids actually ask for me to make this recipe for them, and I'm *pretty* sure they know that zucchini is a vegetable?? 🤣

This shrimp and zoodles scampi is on the pretty healthy side but has an amazing flavor.

My version of the viral "Tomato Feta Pasta". I added chicken and olives (because they're like my favorite thing in the world. It's seriously ridiculous how many olives this family eats!)

Can you guess what this is?
A cake 🎂 I made for a crawfish boil!! Ok granted the real crawdads were much more delicious than the chocolate ones, but it was fun to make and people loved it!

Sometimes I just crave something simple and (ever so slightly) healthy. A chef salad using my recipe for homemade ranch powder is easy to whip up on a weeknight, very economical, and much easier to control sodium content! ⁠

Honey, black garlic, sesame oil, and Gochujang combine for a sauce that is maximized for umami-bomb-i-ness. These are the perfect balance of sweet, heat, and just a little something different! 🐔

It's #NationalEscargotday 🐌🐌🐌

Do you like to eat escargot? We really enjoy it, and it's actually a very easy and quick snack or appetizer if you make it right. This is served in a rustic style, with garlic, wine and cream.
