Lemony Chicken & Orzo

After I typed up the recipe portion of this recipe, I looked up at our most recent posts and apparently we're going a little overboard with the lemon (Lemon Blueberry Muffins, Lemon Blueberry Skillet Cake)! So sorry, but we're featuring lemons again tonight. This is one of those recipes that got passed around because it's... Continue Reading →

Dill & Goat Cheese Risotto

I've had this idea for a risotto with dill and goat cheese to yield a dish with a rich and creamy texture like a normal risotto, but with a tangy, less heavy flavor. This is one of the best things about risotto in my opinion - it's one of those kitchen sink dishes that can... Continue Reading →

Our Dublin Coddle

While the rest of you are celebrating Saint Patrick's Day, I'm vacillating between the five stages of grief over UVA's loss last night. I guess this post is helping me move past the denial stage, given that I just wrote the words "UVA's loss." My very caring and loving husband, is being even nicer to... Continue Reading →

Slow Cooker Chicken Enchilada Soup

I don't know if you noticed, but we haven't shared too many posts this month so far (although our Sultan Selim Kofte was amazing & you should check it out!). A two-fold problem - we attempted a few recipes that we thought would be "blog-worthy," that just didn't turn out well, so we definitely couldn't... Continue Reading →

Hamburger Helper, Minus the Box

I may have mentioned it once or twice, but I have an embarrassing love of most things that come in a box, especially with powdered cheese. Kraft mac & cheese? Clearly. Those Knorr rice or noodle sides in a bag? So good and only $1! Hamburger Helper? Be still my heart 🖤🖤🖤 Are any of... Continue Reading →

Sopa de Fideo (Almost)

As is my usual plan, when I'm uninspired and looking for something to make, I turn to a) the internet and b) a random cuisine from around the world. Is it because I'm American and have always eaten "American" food, that I think it's the least interesting cuisine out there? Or is it because legitimate... Continue Reading →
