This baked chicken breast recipe has elements of an elegant meal—toasty, crunchy pecan crust; juicy, meaty interior; creamy sauce you can plate alongside it—yet requires less than a half-hour of active effort. It also feels fancy, without being too fancy. At the risk of giving myself away here, it’s essentially a grown-up version of my Honey Mustard Chicken Tenders. Translation: kids of all ages (and kids at heart) will love it!...

FavoritePinShare An awesome alternative to the classic philly cheesesteak sandwich! Low carb, gluten free, and stuffed into a delicious tender and juicy bell pepper! Isn’t homework ridiculous these days? My boys come home from school and I don’t see them again until dinner. They are buried in homework.

I grew up with a love of cinnamon rolls of all kinds. My Grandma Dorothy spoiled her family with her legendary from-scratch cinnamon rolls for as long as I can remember. To me, these will forever be the greatest cinnamon rolls in the world. On summer mornings and weekends, my sisters and I would pop open a can of Pillsbury cinnamon rolls and devour the entire batch—no comparison to Grandma’s but convenient and delish....

FavoritePinShare I loved the pecan crust and the creamy cheesecake. Then it is topped with sour cream and crumbs. You are going to love this one as much as I did!

My Grammy introduced me to roasted asparagus. She’d let me help snap off the ends to prep it for cooking. Later, when I was old enough, she passed me the potholder and let me wiggle the pan halfway through cooking so that the asparagus would roast evenly. I loved watching the asparagus spears roll in the olive oil, then caramelize under the oven’s heat. While Roasted Brussels Sprouts, Roasted Beets, and Roasted Broccoli took me until adulthood to embrace, savory fresh asparagus and I got along right away....

One of the most rewarding parts of cooking is seeing raw ingredients transform. It’s hard to find one whose transformation is more spectacular than roasted garlic (it’s even more wondrous Oven Roasted Vegetables!). I do not mean to belittle raw garlic or sautéed garlic. In any form, garlic is an essential aromatic for everything from Garlic Shrimp Pasta, to soups and stir fries, to Feta Dip, and well beyond. Roasted garlic is its own supreme being....

FOR THE FULL LIST OF INGREDIENTS AND COMPREHENSIVE INSTRUCTIONS, PLEASE SEE THE PRINTABLE RECIPE CARD AT THE END OF THIS POST. BEFORE YOU SCROLL, THIS POST IS FILLED WITH HELPFUL INFORMATION FOR MAKING THIS RECIPE. Was anyone else traumatised by eating canned asparagus spears growing up or was that just me? I wrote off asparagus well and truly and it wasn’t until my last 20’s that I finally tried fresh asparagus for the first time....

Roasted turkey breast is one of my favorite dishes, not only for Thanksgiving, and I am constantly experimenting with new cooking techniques and flavors for it. This recipe is definitely one of the best roasted turkey breast recipes I’ve ever tried. Ah, the wonders that garlic, butter and fresh herbs do to lean white poultry meat… Prepared this way, the breast meat comes out of the oven very tender and moist, which is a huge accomplishment with such a lean type of meat....

(Today’s post is sponsored by Rioja Wines.) The holiday season is in full swing. Before you know it, your kitchen will be pumping out glorious platters of food and your dining room will be bustling with friends and family from near and far. A great dish to serve at your holiday party is this Rosemary and Garlic Roast Beef. Tim and I had it for Thanksgiving since we had the turkey I made for the blog a few days before T-day and I know we’ll be having turkey for Christmas....

This Asparagus Egg Toast looks simple, but do not be deceived. The combined effect of the toasty bread with the creamy scrambled eggs and lightly crispy Roasted Asparagus (or Air Fryer Asparagus) is far greater than any single part. I want to be clear that Ben’s aversion to this Asparagus Egg Toast has nothing to do with the recipe and everything to do with the fact that, for whatever mysterious reason, he doesn’t like eggs at dinnertime....

This recipe is sponsored by ALDI While shrimp might not be the first protein that comes to mind when you think of a burger (Italian Turkey Burgers or even black bean Vegan Burgers tend to be mentioned first), the texture of shrimp makes it ideal for forming patties that you can pack with a heap of mix-ins and spices, without the need to add breadcrumbs or any other binders. Fewer binders = better, more powerful shrimp flavor....
