I think a lot of us probably have the foods we ate as kids that were a rarity. For me, pop tarts fell into that category. I'm not sure if that's due to their lack of nutritional value or not, but for some reason they weren't a frequent purchase at the grocery store. My favorite flavors were the brown sugar and cinnamon and the classic strawberry. I haven't had a pop tart in years, and now that I know how easy it is to make them at home, I may never go back! The exception for me is when I run ... continue reading...
Rosemary Dijon Chicken Thighs
I am a huge fan of my cast-iron skillet. I have dreams of someday owning this one, but for now, I'm super happy with my well-loved significantly cheaper one. You can bake cobblers, skillet cookies, and other delicious treats in it. I use it most for dishes that start on the stove and finish in the oven, like this one. I love my skillet, and I also love chicken thighs. Needless to say, chicken is a popular meat to cook. Chicken breasts are so easy to throw in the crock pot, roasted chicken ... continue reading...
Apple Cider Baked Oatmeal
The very first time we took a flight after Lleyton was born, we decided to book a red-eye to Chicago. Some kids do really well on red-eye flights and sleep the entire time. Our then 6-month-old was not one of those kids. I didn't get any sleep the entire flight and by the time we got to my parents' house in Chicago around 7am local time, I was exhausted. We walked into the house and I was greeted by the delicious smell of something baking and knew that I was in for a delicious breakfast. My dad ... continue reading...
Chickpea Farro Shawarma Bowl
Have you ever had a shawarma? It's traditional some type of meat roasted over a spit, then stuffed into a pita with vegetables and tzatziki sauce, very similar to a gyro. The flavor of the meat is incredibly delicious, but I promise you that with this shawarma bowl you won't even miss the meat! I've written on the blog before about how we try to eat meatless at least twice a week. It's a great way to cut grocery store costs, pack in more vegetables, and make sure we're eating enough whole grains ... continue reading...
Biscuit Topped Chicken Pot Pie
I have a confession to make. I don't like making pie crust. I enjoy making just about anything, even recipes that are longer and more complicated. But for whatever reason, no matter what recipe I use, no matter what method I use, I do not like making pie crust. I've tried using butter, shortening or a mix of the two. I've used water and vodka in the crust. I've used super cold butter. I've used a pastry cutter, a food processor, and made it by hand. My dad, who makes flawless pie crust every ... continue reading...
