One Pot Chicken Stew
This stew is simple and homey. You can chose to use skin on or skin off chicken thighs depending on your preference. This would also be really great with some rice and shredded/chopped chicken. I went for a little more rustic approach. Do with it as you wish. Enjoy! Preheat oven to 400 degrees F….

Shepard’s Pie
One of my favorite comfort foods. With the weather so gross today- I figured it would be perfect! It’s fairly easy to make and uses simple ingredients you already have at home.

They have these fabulous Buffalo Chicken Meatballs that are to die for! I decided for Mother’s Day I would make them for us. Surprisingly simple and hot Hot HOT!

Tequila lime shrimp and Mexican soup
To continue in the theme this weekend, I tried out this soup I saw on TV. It was fabulously rich in flavor and the tequila lime shrimp topped it off! I started with a few tablespoons of olive oil in a large pan. I chopped a yellow onion, some bell peppers, and jalapeño. Added them…
Greek Chicken Kabobs with Tzatziki
These chicken kabobs just scream SUMMER! However- it is not grill season just yet. I baked these kabobs and they were great! I start by cutting the chicken into perfect kabob sized pieces. Usually about 1 inch cubes. I let the chicken marinade for at least 24 hours. In large container add chicken, olive oil, red…
Chicken Parm
Who doesn’t love Chicken Parm?! Fresh mozzarella and a quick tomato sauce make this a dinner favorite. I love fresh mozzarella in so many dishes. It’s creamy consistency is divine.

Rib Rub
This is my favorite dry rub for ribs. It’s easy to double and works well with almost any BBQ sauce. I start by placing some foil on cookie sheet pans. Spray with some coconut cooking spray ( or any cooking spray you have) to prevent sticking. I mix all ingredients in a bowl. I love…
