My Aunt Kathy is famous for her cranberry sauce. It’s so good you can often find us sneaking it straight from the jar by the spoonfuls. She was gracious enough to let me adapt her recipe for the blog so, thanks Aunt Kathy! This cranberry sauce recipe is incredibly easy […]
We’d like to say that we made these garlic mashed potatoes and gluten free gravy specifically for Thanksgiving but the truth is we make these two recipes all year long. The mashed potatoes are like creamy, fluffy, garlic clouds. The gravy is silky smooth and has a rich herby flavor. […]
We love a good a tri tip and it always surprises us when we come across someone who is not familiar with this cut of meat. It is a triangular cut that comes from the bottom sirloin of the cow. It is full of flavor and super tender. In San […]
This roasted carrot soup is a bowl of warm, toasty, creamy, deliciousness. The key to the incredible flavor is to roast the vegetables in the oven instead of boiling them. This recipe came out of early COVID when trips to the grocery store were extremely limited. We had a ton […]
The seasoning is the star of the show for these Baja Shrimp Tacos but the Creamy Jalapeno Sauce is a close second. They come together in under 20 minutes and are perfect for a weeknight meal. I was in my 3rd trimester of pregnancy during the onslaught of COVID and […]

The key to this delicious recipe is to make sure you buy thick cut, bone in pork chops. I try to find ones that are between 1-1 1/2 inches thick. That way they stay incredibly tender and juicy and they are so flavorful. These pork chops tend to be about […]
A heads up on this orange chicken: as much as we love the orange coated, sticky, fried goodness that comes from popular Chinese takeout places this is not that. It is delicious and it has a great orange flavor but it is not deep fried and it is not swimming […]
This drink was a life saver when I was pregnant during quarantine. Throw everything in a blender, pour over ice, and top with sparkling water (I prefer Topo Chico). Easy Peasy! I have yet to try it with booze but if you would like to experiment with some then be […]
