One-Pan Lemon Herb Chicken & Rice
This chicken and rice dish can be made in one pan and is an incredibly flavorful dinner full of fresh lemon and herbs. I need a lemon tree because I have been ALL about the magical citrus fruit lately. The flavor it adds to such a wide variety of foods is so refreshing. It was…
Broccoli Cheese Soup
Warm up with a bowl of this cheesy broccoli soup that uses frozen broccoli and two types of cheese for a creamy and flavorful meal. I’ve always liked making food from scratch, even when it takes quite a bit of effort, but I also know I won’t always be this motivated. That’s why I’ve been…

Bruschetta Chicken
Top chicken with the fresh, juicy flavors of bruschetta plus Parmesan and fresh basil for a healthy dinner.

Spicy Shrimp Tacos
Spicy Shrimp Tacos get their distinct flavor from seasoned shrimp on top of a cheesy tortilla—topped with fresh ingredients like cabbage, avocado, and tomatoes.

Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas
One-pan chicken fajitas use a colorful combo of bell peppers and onion as well as a homemade spice blend for a delicious and fresh meal. When it comes to Mexican/Southwest-inspired food, we tend to only eat three types in our house: tacos, burrito bowls, and the occasional quesadillas. I’m pretty sure I could eat Mexican…
Coconut Crusted Chicken Tenders
Make chicken tenders with a shredded coconut breading for a sweet, gold brown dinner that’s baked and not fried. Chicken tenders and nuggets are one of the finer foods in life.
