Hi dear Reader, These Shredded Chicken Tacos are a quick, family-friendly dinner packed with flavor! My boys love it and I'm sure your family will love it too. Tender chicken breasts are cooked on the stove and shredded with just two forks and ready in only 15 minutes. The shredded chicken is then tossed with onions, garlic, and taco seasonings, creating a savory, juicy filling. Spoon it into warm tortillas and top with your favorite toppings for a customizable taco night everyone will love....

Hi dear Reader, How’s your long weekend going so far? This weekend I’m at my best friend’s house for a sleepover since our husbands are traveling for work. Our kids play together so well, and we still have to finalize the last details for our work retreat next month in Florence, Italy. I’m so excited—it’ll be my first time in this part of Italy! We’ll be doing lots of cooking classes, visiting farmers’ markets, and of course squeezing in some work, too. And the best part? I get to experience...

Hi dear Reader, How are you doing today? Hope you're doing well! Fall is the perfect time to cozy up with a warm bowl of soup 🍲🍲 Whether it’s a comforting chicken noodle soup or a hearty vegetable stew, soups are the ultimate fall comfort food. A classic chicken noodle soup offers that familiar, soothing taste, while a vegetable soup, packed with seasonal produce like carrots, potatoes, and squash, brings rich, earthy flavors. You can also try variations like ground beef and beans soup or...

Hi dear Reader, How are you? Hope all is well ;-) Fall is officially here 🍂 and one of our favorite traditions is going apple picking. We’ve been doing it since Thomas was a little toddler. With all the apples we bring home, I love making apple crisp and homemade cider. I’m especially obsessed with apple cider. It’s cozy to sip on its own and perfect for fall recipes like this Apple Cider Beef Stew. It has a lighter broth than most tomato-based beef stew recipes. The apple cider adds a nice...

Hi dear Reader, How’s your week going so far? Hope all is well. When I saw this viral recipe on TikTok, I knew I had to try it because the flavors instantly reminded me of my Ground Turkey Sweet Potato Skillet, a recipe I created back in 2016, and it’s become one of the most popular on my site and everybody loves it! Funny enough, I was already enjoying a similar bowl for lunch before it went viral. The only difference is that this viral taco bowl also has cottage cheese and a delicious...

Hi dear Reader, How’s your long weekend going so far? I just got back from a work trip to New York on Thursday, and the very next day I headed straight into my kitchen to test new fall recipes. Yesterday (Saturday), I spent from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. cooking away, putting my creativity to the test—and honestly, it’s one of my favorite parts of my job. One of the recipes ended up at a friend’s house for dessert (spoiler alert: some cozy fall treats are coming your way soon 😉). We all enjoyed it...

Hi dear Reader, I have to be honest—while I love a good chicken breast recipe (like my favorites Teriyaki Chicken Marinade and Yogurt Marinade Chicken Breast), my family isn’t the biggest fan. That’s why I’m always experimenting with fun and flavorful chicken breast recipes that my boys will actually enjoy. This balsamic marinade is perfect for chicken breast—it absorbs the tangy sweetness so well and makes the meat so much more flavorful. It's just SO GOOD!! Thanks for reading my newsletter!...

Hi dear Reader, If you loved my Marry Me Chicken recipe, you’ll definitely enjoy this Creamy Mushroom Chicken too—it’s rich, flavorful, and just as impressive! I sear the chicken breast first, then build the sauce in the same pan, so all the flavors blend together. Creamy mushroom chicken has the crispy texture of the chicken, the hearty mushrooms, and the smooth cream sauce that work perfectly together. I love serving this dish with steamed rice, pasta, broccoli, or mashed potatoes. A piece...
