These Beer Braised Sausages are great for an at-home Oktoberfest celebration or an afternoon of sports watching. We prefer to use polish sausages (our favorite brand is Teton Waters Ranch) but this recipe works well with bratwursts as well. We also like to use a German Hefeweizen but an ale […]
Main Dish
BLT Summer Salad
This recipe is a delicious way to enjoy the incredible flavors of summer. Cook the bacon and couscous, dice your tomatoes and peaches, throw together with some arugula and balsamic and bam! you have a jazzed up version of a BLT salad. Happy Cooking!
Orange Chicken
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 […]
Chili Verde Ground Beef
The key to this dish is the chili verde sauce. In my opinion not all chili verde’s are created equal so when cooking this meal make sure you are using a chili verde sauce or salsa that you love. We typically use some of the frozen sauce we have leftover […]
Lemon Garlic Shrimp Caesar
For some reason caesar salads have been a major craving of mine during this pregnancy and this salad does not disappoint. We like to make our own dressings (I’m super picky and don’t like most store bought brands) so we’ve included instructions on how to make our caesar but feel […]
Quinoa Chicken Bowls
We created this 30 minute recipe in an effort to get more protein in our diets (well, mostly mine since I need so much more during pregnancy). Quinoa, in my opinion, can be a little blah so we jazzed it up a bit by cooking it with onion, garlic, and […]
Spring Vegetable Couscous
This veggie based dish is great on it’s own if you want a meatless meal or as a side dish to a light fish or chicken entree. We prefer the bigger Israeli Pearl couscous but if you can’t find it then Mediterranean couscous will work as well. Mediterranean couscous has […]
Chili Lime Pork Tenderloin with Roasted Corn and Bell Peppers
This was a super easy meal that Gabe and I made over on Instagram after doing a fridge dive. We used what we had in the fridge and freezer and it turned out delicious. This one-pan meal comes together in 30 minutes and there is minimal prep required. Happy cooking!
Chicken and Brussel Sprout Salad
This is one of the easiest salads to pull together and a great way to get your veggies in. You can certainly buy a pound or so of brussel sprouts, wash them, trim the ends, and then shred or thinly slice them into ribbons for the salad. Or, you can […]
Chopped Italian Salad
This recipe is inspired by our favorite salad from a local Italian restaurant. The flavors are delicious but one main reason Gabe loves this salad is because everything is chopped small enough so it doesn’t hit his mustache when he puts it in his mouth. The salad is chopped small […]
