Read MoreAaron and I have been running our way through every southern recipe that we can get our hands on. And the only way to make ourselves feel less guilt about it is to make sure to have a hearty green on the side. So without further ado, I present smothered chicken with Asian citrus brussels sprout slaw.
Read MoreAaron and I were planning to make something else with the chicken that we’d taken out to thaw. However, we were missing several key ingredients, so we had to shift. He, after consulting our pal @AndreaMakesDinner and searching through our refrigerator, came up with this delish dish.
Read MoreA while back I was supposed to be purchasing maple syrup and got honey instead. That wasn’t such a big deal, except I had JUST bought honey from Costco. So I had way more honey than anyone ever needs. I looked up some recipes that incorporate honey and this one looked delish.

Read MoreI wasn’t sure if I was going to like this because I have a bit of a love hate relationship with drumsticks. I think they’re good in theory but not practice. Anyway, not only were the drumsticks good, but the broccoli was extra good and we’ve added it to our veggie side rotation.

Read MoreThis recipe is sooooo so good. But I will say that the apples, while nice, weren’t really necessary. The next time I make this I’m going to try the recipe without them and see if I miss them.
Read MoreOh how I love pasta. I just wish it was healthier. Now I’m not gonna stop eating pasta. But I will try out some healthier options. And this recipe is just that. I wish the sauce were thicker. But that would require adding cream which would defeat the purpose. It’s tasty all the same.
Read MoreMy hubby isn’t a huge mint fan. Also, he kinda hates cooked carrots. So I was initially a little apprehensive about making a mint based pesto and baked carrots. Then once I started chopping it up and the smell filled our home, I got even more nervous. But once the meal was plated and he took his first bite, I knew that I’d scored big time.
