Confession: I will choose dark meat over white meat every time. Thanksgiving turkey, chicken thighs over breasts, these are a few of my favorite things. When it comes to crockpot and Instant Pot cooking, sticking to dark meat often means a juicier meat. My Crockpot Bourbon Chicken is made with chicken thighs and it’s moist …
My first go-round with sweet potatoes was probably similar to yours. Covered in marshmallows at the Thanksgiving dinner table. Garbage. And then they serve them at restaurants with more damn sugar and caramel? Trash. To be fair, I am not a sweets girl. I like salty and savory and spicy. Want to make me a …
THIS IS NOT A DRILL. *checks weather app* *checks under boobs for sweat* *checks trees for leaves* Nope, not a drill, this is the real thing… IT’S SOUP WEATHER. Is every day soup weather? Technically yes. Just like you can technically have your Christmas tree up year round, if you want. But it’s so much …
When I think about the things my mom made for us growing up, beef stroganoff was always in the mix. And to be honest, I used to dread it. Whenever I saw the ketchup and sour cream on the counter, I groaned. The same way I groaned when it was time for goulash or lentil …

We have one night a week that we have nothing to do. It’s a lifestyle we’re just accustomed to, we accept it as our reality, and frankly, we enjoy it. Some people are like, aren’t you tired of driving all over the place and never being home? And to them I say, can you cleanly …
I’ve broken up with salad this winter. And gazpacho. And Dippin’ Dots. You know, like, cold foods. I’m only eating hot foods covered in sauce, with some kind of starch involved. Maybe some meats with some veggies chopped up, all mixed together… stew. I’m describing stew. The best part about Beef Stew night is that …
Oooof… cheese. Chicken, and mushrooms, and spinach, sure, but also cheeeeese. Oh, and carbs. This is a stick to your ribs in an Ohio winter kind of meal. She’s hearty and carb-y and perfect with crusty bread and red wine. Don’t let this line up intimidate you, this recipe is easy and can be prepped …
