Another broccoli and cheese recipe, yes! An elite combination, if you ask me. This Broccoli Cheddar Orzo makes a delicious side dish, but it’s hearty and filling enough to be a meatless main course. Orzo is a pasta that I love but always forget exists; it’s pasta in the shape of really big grains of rice, pretty much. It’s a…
Yes, another broccoli recipe! I like what I like, OK?? This one I’m calling Easy Roasted Broccoli and I make it about every other week: mostly for meal prep, but also because I just love broccoli and always want some on hand to nibble on. I put this stuff on everything! I add it to pasta, on top of instant…
This Broccoli-Cheddar Stuffed Chicken is so damn good. Y’all should know by now that I love my broccoli and cheese! One of the elite culinary combinations in my opinion. Matter of fact, let me go on and plug my other broccoli cheese recipes: if you haven’t already check out my Cheesy Baked Chicken & Broccoli Rice, Broccoli Chicken and Cheddar…
I debated whether or not to add this Chicken and Broccoli Alfredo recipe to the website. It’s pretty much just a mashup of the Creamy Fettuccine Alfredo w. Chicken and the Cajun Chicken Pasta recipes already here, so it seemed redundant. Well obviously I decided to add it, or you wouldn’t be reading this! When I was recording the voiceover…
Roasted Broccolini is Cast-Iron Broccoli & Cheese‘s more sophisticated cousin. It’s simple, quick, and delicious. What you see above is a small-batch version, which I’ve detailed below under the Switch it Up heading. Roasted Broccolini Ingredients Feel free to jump to the full recipe, but here are useful notes about the ingredients you will need to make this Roasted Broccolini…
And we’re back with Cast-Iron Broccoli and Cheese, another broccoli and cheddar original! Y’all know it’s my favorite combination. If you haven’t tried them already, give my Cheesy Baked Chicken and Broccoli Rice and my Broccoli Chicken and Cheese Hand Pies a whirl. When I was working on this I was going for the nostalgic flavors and textures of the…
This easy recipe for Chicken and Chinese Broccoli Ramen is a staple in my house. I have loved Oodles of Noodles my entire life (that’s what they used to call the packs of instant Top Ramen). My mom used to stir a Kraft American single into my brother and sister’s bowls. I tried it, but I did not like. I…
Broccoli Chicken and Cheddar Hand Pies. Flaky puff pastry filled with tender chicken and broccoli, cheddar cheese, and just a hint of spice. Listen. They’re delicious. I mean honestly, you don’t even need the chicken, but to make a full meal out of them, it’s a nice addition. I love puff pastry. It’s something I’ve never made myself, but I…
I’d say this is your standard Broccoli Cheese Casserole, with rice and chicken, but without the cream soup. I do not like cream soups. Maybe it’s the way they kinda *plop* out when you shake the can I dunno. I’m calling it Cheesy Baked Chicken & Broccoli Rice because I am terrible at naming dishes, but I refuse to call…
My best friend has been picking at me to make her pot pies for about a decade now. When I do make them for her she’s only satiated for a short period of time before she’s right back to randomly texting me every few weeks “Pot Pies?”. Like me, she’s an extremely picky eater – maybe even pickier than I…
Pepper Steak is a dish you’re likely very familiar with if you’ve ever been to your local Chinese takeout restaurant. Me, I’m a ‘chicken wings fried hard’ or ‘beef and broccoli’ type girl, so I’ve never had it but I’ve seen it on the menu! It’s comprised of thinly sliced flank steak, bell peppers, onions, and tomatoes in a stir-fry…
This Beef Fried Rice is so freaking delicious. You could say that this recipe is adapted from one of The Woks of Life‘s recipes for fried rice because most of the what I’ve learned about making fried rice I did from their blog. They’re so damn interesting and educational, I highly recommend checking them out. I love making this rice…
Intro about Chicken Alfredo Stuffed Shells. It’s very similar to my Chicken and Broccoli Alfredo Pasta recipe – and pretty much any chicken alfredo with broccoli recipe anywhere, ever – but a slightly different eating experience because you get way more chicken (and broccoli) to pasta in each bite, especially in comparison to something like fettuccine or pappardelle. Broccoli is…
We’ve already discussed at least a few times that braised beef is my favorite, so I know you’re not surprised to see another slow-cooked beef dish. This Stewed Beef Pie recipe is pretty much the same exact thing they call Steak Pie across the pond! While I like this recipe best with just beef and no additions, I developed and…
My Salmon Cakes recipe is almost identical to my grandmother’s, with one major difference: fresh salmon. Growing up I only ever ate salmon out of a can, and that’s what she made Salmon Cakes (you might call them Salmon Patties or Salmon Croquettes) with. I still use canned salmon – I keep a few cans in my pantry at all…
The Spinach Artichoke Dip I made this past weekend was a revelation. I consider my daughters’ palates and their willingness to try almost anything a parenting win. I worked really hard to ensure they wouldn’t be super picky eaters like I am, and while they still kinda are, they’re at least willing to give new things a try. My youngest…
Honey Sriracha Chicken Stir-Fry is another meal-prep recipe I make often for my husband’s work lunches so nutrition information is included with this recipe. If you decide to swap any ingredients you will throw it off, so be mindful. This Honey Sriracha Chicken Stir-Fry is absolutely delicious! It’s sweet and spicy – one of my favorite flavor combinations and it…
I made this Spicy Gouda Mac and Cheese the other day and asked if y’all wanted the recipe. You did, and here we are! It’s the first mac recipe I’ve brought to you since the Vegan Buffalo Mac and Cheese. I didn’t realize it had been so long! The next macaroni and cheese recipe you’ll see here is Stovetop Broccoli…
Today I’m bringing you a recipe that I make most often for meal-prep purposes: Sweet and Spicy Stir-Fry Noodles! Rice noodles and tender chunks of chicken are tossed together with a ton of crisp veggies and a sweet, spicy, savory sauce. Most of the food my husband eats is meal-prepped. He spends a few hours in the gym at least…
I’ve been meaning to add this recipe for Easy Strawberry Sauce to the site for a while now. I say that all the time, don’t I? Well, it’s true! There are so many requests, it’s like Mount Everest!! This recipe is probably the simplest and easiest I’ve got coming for you. It only takes a handful of ingredients, comes together…
Spicy Yellow Rice is another grocery store copy-cat recipe, similar to my Homemade Rice and Roni and Cast-Iron Broccoli and Cheese recipes. This one, in particular, is a dupe for Mahatma’s Spicy Yellow Rice, found in the rice aisle in a gold and yellow pouch, which is soo freaking good. Spicy Yellow Rice Ingredients Feel free to jump to the…
I love these Cajun Butter Steak Tips. Steak Tips are my preferred way of eating steak; you get the perfect ratio of seared and seasoned surface area to tender beefy center in every bite! What’s not to love? I made this on Instagram last week and y’all wanted the recipe so here you go! Cajun Butter Steak Tips Ingredients Feel…
First things first: pay attention only to the Homemade Rice-A-Roni in the above photo! That’s what this recipe is for! I posted this meal last week and there were so many requests for a recipe that I made it again to develop measurements but it was too late and dark to get photos. So, I’m using the full meal pictures…
This is a copycat of Outback Steakhouse’s Bloomin’ Fried Chicken: boneless chicken breast battered in the same breading as their Bloomin’ Onion and served with the same tangy sauce. Well, I guess I can’t say it’s the same exactly, but I think it’s pretty close! You tell me! Bloomin’ Fried Chicken Ingredients Feel free to jump to the full recipe,…
