Nachos Recipe

My loaded nachos recipe is so good there’s just no way anyone will be able to resist the temptation of this crispy, chessy, all around delicious snack. I added big dollops of sour cream just before serving but you can drizzle on some Mexican crema or a sprinkle of queso fresco. Pro Tips for the...

Butternut Squash Soup

I convinced my mom to make this soup for the blog because I had to share this recipe, it’s so easy and delicious!! The butternut squash pairs wonderfully with the apple, coconut milk and spices. I’m sure you’ll be making this recipe more than once if you give it a try. I almost forgot to...

Lentil Soup

Lentil soup is a beautiful reminder to not judge a book by its cover. Let’s be honest, friends—it’s a brown soup! But that doesn’t mean it’s not amazingly delicious! Truth be told, bite for bite, it’s one of my favorite cozy and comforting soups. My little French twist sneaks in just a dash of nutmeg...

Taco Soup

This taco soup is the best of both worlds, I mean, don’t you just LOVE crunchy tacos? They’re one of my favorite quick suppers (#TacoTuesday) but I’ll be honest, they can be kinda messy.

Butternut Squash Mac and Cheese

I love mac and cheese but it can be so rich! Everything is fine in moderation but sometimes you want a bigger portion without the guilt! My healthier version uses butternut squash cooked with onions, garlic a few fragrant bay leaves and chicken stock. Blend it up with a bit of milk and you have...

Pumpkin Cornbread

I think cornbread is best served when warm and fresh out of the oven so if you’re trying to prep before dinner then whisk the dry ingredients in a bowl and in a separate bowl mix the wet ingredients, prepare the pan and just before dinner whisk it all together and pop into the oven....

Cream of Mushroom Soup

If you think cream of mushroom soup is just for casseroles, taste this version and you’ll think again! Equal parts humble and elegant, this cozy, comforting soup can be dressed up or down, depending on the occasion.

Instant Pot Pork Tenderloin

One of my favorite ways to cook is to play off sweet and savory flavors. In this recipe, smoky paprika and a hefty pinch of salt keep this extra-tender Instant Pot pork tenderloin on the savory side, while juicy apples and caramelly bourbon round out the flavors with rich sweetness. A splash or two of...

Chicken Alfredo

If creamy chicken alfredo sauce is one of your guilty pleasures, wait until you try this version that’s a little lighter, but still just as delicious!

Vegetable Soup

When the weather starts to cool down, this is one of the first recipes I reach for. I grew up eating vegetable soup where everything was just boiled on the stove. It was completely delicious, but I wanted to amp up the flavor. So one cold day, I tried roasting some of the vegetables before...
