Meatball Soup

The time has come. Time for my first cooking video! I’ve been into making staff spotlight videos for work lately and I thought I’d go ahead and try a cooking video with the kids. All in all, it was fun and I think it turned out great! It’s not taken from the point of view […]

Game-Day Chili

No matter who you’re rooting for, chili is a classic go-to for the big game. I know that’s what we’re having at our house! You can make a big pot to feed a crowd, and it’s totally low maintenance. Once you make it, just leave it on the stove or even in a crock pot […]

Tuscan Chickpea Soup with Swiss Chard

I know it’s spring, but it’s not too hot for one more soup recipe! This was a really simple soup to make, and very delicious! Even my 1 year old loved it! It is full of veggies, has a lot of protein from the chickpeas, and has tons of flavor. I will be adding this to […]

The Best Slow Cooker Beef Stew

Lately, I’ve been looking for easy meals that I can make quickly or ahead of time so I can spend as much time as possible with my family. Can you blame me? Look how cute my little man is! Lucky me, he “helps” me in the kitchen by taking dishes out of the dishwasher (which eventually end […]

Turkey Bacon Chili

This winter I have been obsessed with chili.  So much so, in fact, that I requested it as my birthday meal from Tim.  There are about as many ways to make chili as there are people out there who eat chili. I don’t think I’ve ever made it the same way twice.  This year, I’ve […]

Roasted Butternut Squash Carrot Soup

What can I say about butternut squash?  It’s delicious, good for you, inexpensive, and incredibly difficult to cut.  I did not discover how much I liked butternut squash until about 4 or 5 years ago. I had no idea what I was missing!  Now, every fall I look forward to loading up on them at […]

Lemon Chicken Orzo Soup

I know it’s almost spring, so our time for soup is really winding down, but I think this soup recipe is perfect for this time of year.  It’s light, brothy, full of flavor, and very refreshing with the hint of lemon and fresh grassy parsley, yet definitely filling enough to be a meal.   I […]

Italian Wedding Soup

As spring approaches, we are nearing the end of soup season.  I think I still have a little time to squeeze in a couple more recipes though, because it’s not too warm yet.  Pretty soon it will be grilling time! This is a pretty light and healthful soup with tons of flavor.  It has tiny […]

Easy White Chicken Chili

I’ve seen a lot of recipes around the internet for white chicken chili, and I have been wanting to try one.  I think I was paralyzed by recipe overload though, because it took me a while to make a decision and do it.  The one I ended up on was so easy, it seemed too […]

Crock Pot Loaded Potato Soup

Who doesn’t love a nice big bowl of homemade potato soup?  I personally love it, but I don’t usually make it very often because the recipe I’ve been using for years, while extremely delicious, is kind of tedious and not exactly figure friendly.  It involves baking potatoes, letting them cool, peeling them, cutting them, and […]
