Quick Mushroom Beef Stroganoff Skillet Supper

April 25, 2016 by Faith 7 Comments

Quick Mushroom Beef Stroganoff Skillet Supper comes together in 30 minutes for an easy weeknight dinner.

When mom comes over for dinner, its always a little nerve-wracking thinking about what to make. Not because shes picky in general (although like most people, she has a few things that she absolutely will not touch), but because when I make new-to-her-things, its hit or miss as to whether or not theyll go over well.

The last time mom came over for dinner I decided to go with an old classic: Beef Stroganoff!…

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....

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.)...

Thank you to Dreamfields for sponsoring this post. I am happy for the opportunity to share brands that I believe in with my readers, and I hope you enjoy my recipe for Easy Chicken Parm Soup. Something I’ve realized about myself is that I just about always defer to making food from scratch....

Pan-Seared Scallops with Fresh Peach Salsa {Paleo}

August 20, 2014 by Faith 6 Comments

So, the other day I walked into the bathroom and found the entire contents of the medicine cabinet strewn into the sink. Makeup, deodorant, toothpaste, medicine. It wasn’t pretty. I was completely baffled, racking my brain as to what I could have done to upset Mike and provoke such a passive-aggressive attack....

Shrimp, Black Bean, and Tomato Salad with Feta and Spicy Southwest Dressing

June 16, 2014 by Faith 8 Comments

So it’s almost 5 o’clock on a random weekday afternoon. Your bestie sends you an email saying she has the evening free, and she wants to pop by for a visit around 7. Your fridge is empty (ironically, tonight was going to be grocery shopping night), and you scramble to think about what you can pick up for a quick, easy, and delicious dinner. I have you covered with this lovely dish....

Chicken Salad Bowl with Avocado, Strawberry, and Walnut {Paleo}

May 20, 2014 by Faith 14 Comments

I have a weird method of cooking for Mike and I. One thing I adore about him is how even though he is a crazy-picky eater, if it’s a dish he likes, he doesn’t mind eating it for leftovers…for a week straight. Yup, I’m a lucky girl....

Quick Lasagna Casserole {aka Lazy Lasagna}

April 28, 2014 by Faith 12 Comments

Not too long ago, I made a huge batch of bison, bean, and vegetable soup. It was, if I do say so myself, pretty fabulous. Naturally, I completely expected my hubby not to like it....

It’s January 3rd. And we all know what that means....

Baked Chicken Tenders {Gluten-Free}

November 1, 2013 by Faith 20 Comments

When I worked at a pizzeria during high school, one of my absolute favorite things to eat on break was a chicken finger (aka chicken tender) sub with blue cheese. Of course, being a kid and running around like a banshee during work (that pizzeria was always busy!) meant there weren’t ramifications for eating such an indulgent meal now and then (read: more often than not). Just one of the fun (haha!) aspects of growing up is the fact that you can no longer eat everything you want with reckless abandon and expect it not to take its toll. I still like chicken fingers, but […]...
