Healthy eating tips with easy recipes
Tacos, enchiladas, burritos, quesadillas, nachos—those foods show up at least once a week on our dinner table. Not only because they are alsbsolutely yummy, but also because they are some of the best meatless meals in the world (in my humble opinion). When having a meatless meal, it’s important to substitute the meat with other …
Need a meal that’s an easy people-pleaser? Pizza is always a safe choice. Skip delivery and walk past the frozen foods aisle. Make homemade Quinoa Pizza Bowls instead! Bonus: these Quinoa Pizza Bowls are even gluten free! (And could also be dairy free if you remove the cheese.) Here’s the simplified version: swap your pizza …
Remember that season when the entire world was pretty much stuck at home (aka covid pandemic)? Well, there was also a mad dash to the grocery stores and odd things, such as toilet paper and tortillas, were in short supply. Since I couldn’t conveniently purchase flour tortillas, I decided to make my own! And honestly, …
One thing is certain about round steak: the longer it cooks, the more tender it becomes. A little known secret is that a dash of apple cider vinegar helps tenderize your meat even further. And a steak smothered in a rich brown gravy is so satisfying. Add in a pile of mashed potatoes and I’m …

Don’t get me wrong, I love a perfectly seared steak or a tender pot roast. But I’ve found that eating meat every single day is expensive and unnecessary. So our family has implemented at least two meatless meals per week. If nothing else, we’re filling our bodies with nutrients from a variety of veggies that …
Sometimes I look in my fridge and find a hodgepodge of random veggies. What can I do with such an odd mixture? When I’m at a loss, I make a hash. I define hash as an assortment of meat and veggies cooked in one skillet. In this instance, I used chicken, apples, sweet potatoes, and …

If you’ve read any of my previous recipes, you’ll notice a trend: cajun seasoning is always an option for spices and seasonings. That’s because my husband and daughter prefer that flavor to nearly any other. Pasta? Good with cajun seasoning. Soup? Great with cajun seasoning. Oatmeal? Why not add cajun seasoning! (I’m kidding about this …
The fresh mangos in the store looked irresistible! They were large and colorful and just soft enough to the touch. I bought two, anticipating to enjoy one for lunch as soon as I finished my errands. I gobbled it up that afternoon, and wondered if I should eat the second one too? Self-control, I told …
You know those days with jam packed schedule, and you have no idea how you will squeeze in the time to cook dinner? Don’t resort to takeout food. Take 5 minutes to prep a crockpot meal that tastes better than takeout! This recipe for Honey Sesame Chicken doesn’t need to simmer all day long. In …

Side note: while the ingredients are simple, that …
Last week I wrote about my love of eggplant. (Missed it? Read about it here in the recipe for Eggplant and Goat Cheese Roll Ups.) Those deep purple veggies are irresistible to me, so they show up often on our dinner table. Last week I purchased Graffiti Eggplants with the intention to create an eggplant …

I didn’t know that eggplant was one of my favorite foods until I tasted it smothered in tomato sauce. I had been living in Italy for a few months by this point. The weather was just morphing into summer, which meant that eggplants were ripe in season. We ate at a fancy restaurant in a …
Are you searching for a homemade chicken tender recipe? And not a standard “oil with salt and pepper” kind of recipe? Look no further – this is the best chicken tender recipe! The tenders are first coated in butter. But not plain butter…you melt the butter and then mix it with parsley, garlic powder, salt, …
Sometimes our family wants a nontraditional dinner. Kind of like Super Bowl Sunday or New Years Eve, when you graze on heavy appetizers instead of sitting down for a proper meal. Our week was crazy, with extra hours at work and building evening commitments. To help us make it though until Saturday (sleep in and …
I don’t know about you, but Mexican food has a sweet spot in my heart and my stomach! We have this kind of food at least once a week in our house… tacos, nachos, burritos, enchiladas, Mexican pot pie, or taco salad. There is something perfectly balanced about taco seasoning, the right amount of earthy …
During the summer, yellow squash and zucchini grow in abundance! Instead of just roasting these veggies, try this new recipe.

Sloppy joe is the meal of childhood, along with spaghetti, tacos, and meatloaf. (I’m sensing a pattern…it must be the delicious beef!) And thankfully we can all be children at heart and enjoy sloppy joes throughout adulthood. As a weeknight chef, sloppy joes couldn’t be easier. At minimum, it requires browning some beef (or turkey), …
You know those days when you really need to go to the grocery store and you’re scrounging to pull together a decent meal? Spaghetti is a staple pantry item to keep on hand. Whether I am about to go out of town (so I don’t want to go to the grocery store) or I just …
Grandpa had the right idea about a complete meal: a meat and three vegetables. As the chef of my home, my goal is to serve my family nutritiously complete meals, such as meat with three colorful fresh veggies. That’s one of the reasons why I love this crockpot meal. Let’s start with the basics. You …
Confession time: I love bread. Do you? Do your kids? Any kind is satisfying. Rye, honey wheat, flaky rolls, dense biscuits, crispy, soft, etc. Seriously, I could eat bread for every meal of the day. Although it’s tasty, I know that kind of eating style isn’t a participant of a healthy or balanced diet. It’s …
“You’re crazy for making homemade beans when you can literally just buy them in a can!” That’s what I used to say. Maybe you feel the same way. But then I ate homemade black beans and the taste was significantly better. And then I discovered that purchasing dry beans was a fraction of the cost …
At the end of the month, the grocery budget has become slim. It’s time to eat out of the freezer and pantry, to finish up extra ingredients before the new month begins. At that time of the month, I tend to cook a variety of meatless meals, like pasta, tacos with black beans, vegetable stir …
Confession: I cook some variation of Mexican-American food at least once per week…sometimes twice per week. Last week I made a fresh batch of homemade black beans, so we ate them early in the week. Like always, I make enough to freeze the extras; this week I also reserved the juice, which was the perfect …
Some weeknights require a filling dinner that is easy to prepare. For those evenings, this one skillet ground beef with broccoli and rice is the perfect solution.

As Spring turns to Summer, my cooking shifts from dried Winter herbs to tropical sauces – like these pork chops and pineapple slices in a thick Hawaiian sauce! Normally these type of sauces are created as a marinade, and then the meat is grilled. But I haven’t prepared my grill for the change of seasons …
Sometimes I’m in an earthy mood, where I crave the rich flavors of herbs. And not just a sprinkle of rosemary or a dash of basil, but a dish loaded with a blend of herbs. Which led me to the creation of Italian herb chicken. I gathered my favorite herbs on the counter: oregano, basil …
When I say “meatball,” what comes to mind (aside from a visual image of a meatball)? I have fond memories of eating meatballs as a child. My mom would make all sorts, from grape jelly to brown gravy to marinara sauce to ketchup. I realized after a few years of living on my own that …
Crescent rolls used to be a weekly purchase from the grocery store. Are they a common staple for your family too? They are fluffy and flakey and so easy to make for dinner. Yum! Have you ever considered baking a homemade version? Yes, it will take a bit more time. (Although please tell me I’m …
When you’re in the mood for comfort food, opt for this quick homemade mushroom gravy! Put on a roast, boil some potatoes, and simmer a pot of corn. Top each with this warm, rich, dark gravy for an instantly satisfying dinner. It’s especially enjoyable on a mid-winter’s night. Growing up, my mother always served brown …
Have you ever noticed how versatile quinoa is? It’s an excellent substitute for rice, addition to breads, ingredient for a cold salad, filler for a quiche, element in a meatloaf, crispy bits for homemade chocolate, etc. As a seed, quinoa is similar to a grain. It can be consumed as a seed or boiled for …
Do you ever get a craving for a hearty whole wheat biscuit? The kind that is moist and dense, and fills up your belly? When nothing will satisfy but a whole wheat biscuit, I turn to this quick 5-ingredient recipe. I can mix up the ingredients in less than 5 minutes, and they only take …

What’s your favorite comfort food? That meal you dream about on a dreary day, or when you’re missing home, or when you reminisce about days past? For me, it’s chicken pot pie. It reminds me of being a teenager on a day off of school. My mom would serve chicken pot pie to me and …
What is your favorite ingredient to cook with? I have three ingredients that I never run out of: pesto, olive oil, and cream of mushroom/chicken/celery/anything soup. When I first became a chef in my home’s kitchen, casseroles were my specialty. And 9 times out of 10, the base of my casserole was a creamy soup. …
Does you family have a veggie that is always in your house? For us, it’s bell peppers and carrots. Both of them are refreshing snacks, pair well with dips, and stay fresh longer than most other vegetables. When it’s nearly time for another grocery store run, I make stuffed peppers. I have the peppers, grains, …
Mouthwatering, moist, herb-crusted, just right! Yum. That’s only a hint at how this lamb is more than a slam dunk or a homerun out of the park. My husband and I were kid free for a weekend so we planned a fun date night at home. Find yourself in need of a date night, too? …
Two of our friends made the cross-country move from Oregon to Tennessee a couple of years ago. They lived with us for 2 months while they were house hunting. During that season we shared the kitchen, cooked meals together, and spent many joyful evenings around the dinner table. One of the best things about that …
Once a month we like to have a fancy dinner at home. Sometimes it’s a candlelight dinner. Other times it involves a special food such as steak or lamb. Other times it’s foreign cuisine. Most of the time it’s international food for a themed meal. Last month my husband was in the mood for French …
I have a passion for potatoes. Red, white, gold – no matter the color, I love them. Baked, boiled, smashed or crispy, they are delicious. (Can anybody relate? Do your kids at least agree with me?) Due to my recent love affair with potatoes, we eat them about twice per week in our house. But, …
I will never forget the day when I was a teenager and my mom declared, “I want to make homemade chips.” But not any kind of chips. I was thinking barbecue, sour cream and onion, or salt and vinegar potato chips. She wanted to make kale chips. “Eww, gross!” I responded, “Why would you make …
Autumn is rapidly progressing to Winter. I miss the brightly colored leaves, crisp air, and vibrant produce. I’m still buying the Fall veggies because I can’t get enough of them! I had half of a butternut squash still in my produce drawer, waiting to be enjoyed. I had already planned to make curry this week. …
On busy weeknights, I rely on my crockpot. Let me guess, your house runs the same way when the schedule is full? Usually I have some spare time in my mornings to assemble the meal and prep ingredients. But last week was jam packed. So I was struggling to get dinner on the table. I …
My husband and I love tasting foods from across the globe. One night we decided that we were in the mood for Scandinavian food. Uh…what exactly is considered to be Scandinavian cuisine? We had no idea. Naturally, we went to the internet. After looking at various recipes, I stumbled upon the concept of Finnish Pancakes. …
As a kid, it was a special day when Mom made breakfast for dinner! I remember receiving a plate loaded with a huge waffle. (It was a normal-sized waffle, but it sure looked giant to my childhood eyes.) I would drizzle on the warm syrup and sprinkle fruit on top. Then I would consume the …

Growing up, my mom would go through cravings for take-out Asian cuisine. We visited the same local joint run by a kind, friendly Asian family.

The first time I visited my in-laws (way back when my husband had only been my boyfriend for 2 months), they made this delicious pork tenderloin. I was impressed with their cooking, their son, and them in general! The next time we visited over fourth of July, they had a backyard party and fireworks. …
A few years ago one of my friends had a child who happened to be allergic to everything: soy, eggs, dairy, gluten, and a handful of other things. She had to drastically restrict her family’s diet. It went okay for a little while…until she couldn’t have chocolate! That was the last straw for her. She …
