    Instant Pot Chicken Tacos

    These Chicken Tacos may look like your typical tacos, but let me assure you, they are so much better. I don’t know about you, but I try and use my Instant Pot as often as possible. This amazing magic cooking machine that was invented, makes my life so much easier. You are literally throwing all the ingredients into a giant pot (your meat can even be frozen), hitting start, coming back 30 minutes later and BOOM your dinner is done. This is the DREAM. With this recipe your chicken can be frozen or fresh, you just have to adjust your time and water amount accordingly. If you are using frozen…

    Homemade Vegan Pesto

    Honestly I am really excited about this simple, easy, vegan pesto. I came up with this recipe because 1. I can’t have basil because I am allergic so I wanted to come up with an alternative because I really love and missed pesto. 2. I also am allergic to walnuts which is a common ingredient in most pestos. Pine nuts are also on the ingredient lists on store bought pestos, and pine nuts at the store- they are expennssiivee sis. Therefore, I came up with some different ingredients as a solution to my quandary. Hence this beautiful, creamy, smooth, aromatic pesto. Of course, there are always variations of the recipe.…

    The Best Pumpkin Loaf with Streusel (Gluten-Free)

    It is OFFICIALLY Fall people! We are two weeks into September and I have literally already seen dozens of pumpkin recipes flood my Instagram and Pinterest feeds. I get it, it’s super basic and super cliche, but everyone loves pumpkin recipes, and they make you feel happy, cozy, and warm. I love coming up with new, exciting, and different recipes. But sometimes ya gotta stick to the classics, because they just work and they are consistently great and tasty. I am going to be honest with you, I tinkered with this recipe couple times. I even went through all the effort of making the video and shooting the photos for…

    Gluten and Dairy Free Chicken Meatballs with GF Pasta and Marinara

    Summer 2021 has flown by, and we find ourselves at the beginning of September. The end of swimming in the lake, tanning by the pool, and picnics at the park is here. However, I am excited beyond reason, because that means that Fall is here! Which means the beginning of warm soups, pumpkin spice lattes, strolls through the park wearing scarves and beanies, and savory comforting food like spaghetti and meatballs! Which brings me to our recipe today! I love this recipe because it is quick, has simple ingredients, and is a delicious savory meal, done in under 30 minutes. You can definitely whip this up whether you are a…

    Cold Pasta Salad with Corn, Chicken, and Vinaigrette

    Well hello there my blog friends and family, I hope you are having a fabulous week. It has been in the 90’s here in Idaho for weeks now, so it’s been a hot summer. For me, that means lots of pools, rivers, lakes, cold drinks, and eating food that is generally cold if possible. That’s why I love creating cold pasta recipes in the summer because the last thing you wanna eat when you are hot, is a hot meal. I created this recipe with a small and mighty pasta called orzo. If you have never heard of orzo pasta, it is a short grained pasta, usually made of white…

    Well hello hello. Memorial Day weekend is upon us! That means we will see lots of friends and families getting together, BBQing, making meals, and just spending time with one another. I am grateful for all the men and women who have devoted their lives to serving our country, I am excited to honor them, and I hope that they feel loved and appreciated. On a lighter note, my favorite part of a holiday is the food and the people. I am an extrovert, so hanging out with humans and connecting with them, makes me come alive. One of the main reasons I love creating recipe and cooking food, is…

    Easy Summer Quinoa Salad w/ Vinaigrette

    Welcome to the weekend! I was actually going to post this recipe for Cinco De Mayo, but my laptop screen ended up getting cracked sadly, so I wasn’t able to finish the post until now. Fortunately, my sister and brother-in-law let me borrow their MacBook Air for the week, so I was able to edit the photos and get this post going. Yay! Anyways, this is a staple in my household. I have been making this cold quinoa salad for years, and the ingredients have evolved over time. This quinoa salad has crispy bell pepper, crunchy corn, soft black beans, salty feta, all topped with a zesty lemon vinaigrette. I…

    Mediterranean Chicken Wrap with Homemade Hummus

    This is a delicious lunch wrap that I created last year in 2020. It was November and I was living in Austin, Texas. For my 29th birthday, my best friend and I went downtown to have a fun picnic right by the river. It was a perfect, beautiful sunny day, and the river looked beautiful with its surrounding trees, and the Austin skyscraper buildings towering behind it. We packed a picnic lunch, and I wanted something light, healthy, and quick. Therefore the Mediterranean inspired chicken wrap was born. This wrap is great paired with apple slices and cheese on the side. You could also have some chips or crackers etc.…

    Whole 30 Sweet Potato Chili

    This is a recipe I created many years ago, when I decided to do the Whole 30. I wanted a delicious, flavorful, and hearty meal, and I modified a regular recipe to be Whole 30 approved. I have added a couple things since then, like beans, and it is still one of my favorite chili’s to this day. If you do want to make it Whole 30 approved, just omit the beans, and make sure your broths have no sugar added etc. It has few ingredients and takes only about 10-15 minutes to prepare. Even though it’s so simple, it is still extremely flavorful. Some tips: If you want it…
