Greek style rice is simple, but full of flavor and turns out is super easy to make at home too. We eat rice several times a week and I love switching up the type of rice I make depending on the sort of meal I am making. One meal that I cook at home quite often is my chicken shawarma and Greek rice is a must make for a side dish. I started making this recipe at home after moving from Louisiana and when I no longer had access to our favorite Mediterranean restaurant and couldn’t find another restaurant that compared. I tested out this rice many of times before getting it just right, but finally found the perfect combo of flavors! Now my easy Greek rice is one of our favorite rice dishes and I know that you are going to love it too.
Sheet pan meals are genius don’t you think? One pan, little to no mess to clean up, and everything you need for a complete dinner all one one pan! I mean who doesn’t want more of these types of meals in their life? I know I do! I am always looking for new sheet pan dinner combinations that I can create to make easy weeknight dinners. Shrimp is one of those seafoods that I always like to have hanging out in the freezer because it thaws quickly and can be made into a variety of meals! I created a shrimp sheet pan meal that can be made from pantry and freezer staples any night of the week and the whole family will love it guaranteed! My easy Greek shrimp sheet pan meal is healthy, full of flavor, and couldn’t be any easier to prepare.
Roasted cauliflower is one of my absolute favorite winter time vegetables! I am definitely the person who needs to make an extra batch for my family because I end up snacking on it as soon as it comes out of the oven and tend to eat half of the pan myself before I have even served dinner. But beyond roasting, cauliflower is so versatile and I love incorporating it into any meals where I can! It’s truly a vegetable that is a jack of all trades if you will. From roasting, to pureeing, to everything in between, cauliflower is the veggie for the job! I love a good bowl situation during the week where I can add veggies, a grain, and maybe a fried egg and dinner is done, and cauliflower is the perfect veggie to add to any bowl mix up. My roasted cauliflower and spinach grain bowls are seriously one of my new favorite dinners and you are going to love them too!
Buffalo chicken is one of those dishes that I get a craving for on a regular basis. I love traditional buffalo wings, but I also love making my roasted buffalo cauliflower and more to satisfy the craving when the craving hits that are a bit lighter. With the Super Bowl coming up, I love the idea of making healthier options to serve to my guests in addition to some more traditional game day foods! Lettuce wraps are one of those things that you can literally put anything inside of to make a lighter option of one of your favorites. Most people think of Asian lettuce wraps only, but truly the options are endless. My easy buffalo chicken lettuce wraps are so satisfying, they make such a great appetizer for game day, and they truly couldn’t be any easier to whip up any day of the week!
January always seems to be the month that goes on forever and ever. The weather is always a bit (or a lot) chilly depending on where you live, calling for lots of cozy food. In addition to soup, potatoes are the next best thing to stick to your bones if you ask me! I love using sweet potatoes as much as I can because they are more nutrient dense than a regular russet potato. Sweet potatoes are so versatile and while they are delicious on their own just with a little honey and butter, I love to add savory flavors as well. Stuffing sweet potatoes is a great way to add a variety of flavors and you can create an entire meal with them that the whole family will love. My miso butter sweet potatoes with roasted chickpeas will quickly become a weeknight favorite and the best part is, they are loaded with flavor and nutrition!
