Buffalo Chicken Burgers with Spicy Blue Cheese Celery Slaw

January 31, 2020 by Faith 11 Comments

Buffalo Chicken Burgers are rich and buttery, garlicky, and have a little kick of heat thanks to Frank’s RedHot! Spicy Blue Cheese Celery Slaw is the perfect topping to drive home the “buffalo” flavor profile.

I am of the mind that there is nothing better than a good burger. Which, despite my love affair with veggies, is probably the number one reason I could never be a vegetarian. And yes, I realize that there are some fabulous meat-free burgers out there!

Maybe the only thing better than a good burger is a plate of piping hot Buffalo wings done right.…

Creamy Garlic and Chive White Bean Chowder with Leeks {Gluten-Free}

January 9, 2017 by Faith 7 Comments

This gluten-free Creamy Garlic and Chive White Bean Chowder with Leeks is rich and velvety and full of fiber and protein! We all know sometimes less is more in life, and I think this can be particularly true when it comes to food. Think about a perfectly ripe summer tomato; the only thing it needs is maybe a sprinkle of salt to be mind-blowing. Or warm fresh baked bread, which can be improved by nothing except a smear of butter. Or creamy vanilla ice cream flecked with specks of vanilla beans and drizzled with hot fudge. So many times simple flavors win out....

Cheesy Kale-Artichoke Quesadillas {Lactose-Free; Gluten-Free Option}

May 13, 2016 by Faith 10 Comments

Cheesy Kale-Artichoke Quesadillas are a fun spin on spinach-artichoke dip that will have even your pickiest eaters eating kale. I’m pretty bad about sticking to weekly themed dinners, like Meatless Mondays, Taco Tuesdays, Fish Fridays, etc. Not because we don’t eat meatless meals, fish, or tacos, but because when we do, it’s on any random day....

Broccoli Cheddar Soup {Gluten-Free; Lactose-Free}

March 2, 2016 by Faith 5 Comments

This Broccoli Cheddar Soup recipe is deliciously satisfying; it comes together quick, but has slow-simmered depth of flavor. Winter here in NoVA is a funny thing. You’ll be rolling along mid-January without so much as a snow flurry to speak of (wondering if you’ll even see a snowflake this year), and then suddenly a single storm hits and you’re three feet under....

Easy Turkey or Chicken Masala Wraps

January 15, 2016 by Faith 14 Comments

Easy Turkey or Chicken Masala Wraps are a delicious recipe to transform leftovers into a completely new meal! I don’t consider myself a food snob at all. My go-to meal when nothing sounds good is a humble egg (preferably fried, runny yolk) with roasted vegetables, or a big pile of salad greens topped with whatever leftovers I can find in the fridge....

Western Omelette Recipe

January 8, 2016 by Faith 12 Comments

This Western Omelette Recipe is loaded with bell pepper, onion, and cheese! For a vegetarian version, I omitted the ham and added mushrooms. It makes a delicious and easy meal any time of day! The thing about eggs that is simultaneously fabulous and frustrating is that they’re best served right away. (Of course there are exceptions to every rule, and the one that immediately comes to mind with eggs is hard-boiled! But you get the idea.)...

Stovetop White Cheese Macaroni and Cheese with Broccoli

August 21, 2015 by Faith 8 Comments

This creamy Stovetop White Cheese Macaroni and Cheese with Broccoli comes together quick for the perfect kid-friendly meal. Looking through my site, I noticed that I don’t have a lot of kid-oriented recipes. (Mostly because Mike and I don’t have kids (yet) and the only kid in my life (my niece) has a more grown-up palate than most grown-ups I know. From the age of five she insisted on ordering for herself at restaurants, and for a good long stint her meal of choice was broiled fish with steamed vegetables…a girl after my own heart.)...

20-Minute Chicken Fajita Quinoa Dinner Skillet

July 6, 2015 by Faith 14 Comments

This quick-cooking 20-Minute Chicken Fajita Quinoa Dinner Skillet is cooked on the stovetop, and is a great recipe to have up your sleeve for those busy summer nights when you don’t want to heat up the oven or fire up the grill! It’s a great way to use leftover chicken too. So, Mike still won’t eat quinoa. I wish we could be one of those happy dinner households where they make one meal and all sit down to enjoy the same thing together like The Brady Bunch or something. That has just never been the case with us....

Quick Creamy Chicken Paprika Soup

June 5, 2015 by Faith 10 Comments

I’m a planner. (I may have mentioned that here before or you may have guessed. Or you may know from personal experience, and if that’s the case and I drove you nuts with my 1001 lists all I can say is I’m sorry. Truly. But remember, like Monica’s label maker, sometimes organization comes in handy. ;) ) Anyway....
