Pizza night is a regular occurrence in this house and I love switching up flavors to based on what I have in the refrigerator and what is currently in season. Fall is the time when all squash varieties become abundant and I find myself with multiple varieties on hand at all times trying to decide how I will cook them up. Personally I love them just roasted with olive oil, salt, and pepper, but from time to time I like to switch things up. Using roasted squash varieties on salads, in pastas, to make sauces etc is a fabulous way to “fall-ify” any dish! This recipe for roasted delicata squash with prosciutto, and goat cheese pizza is quickly going to become your new favorite Friday night pizza tradition.
Soup season has arrived for most of us and I say bring it on. There is nothing better than a cozy bowl of soup on a chilly day that just feels like the ultimate food hug. It’s hard to pick a favorite soup for me, because I have so many that I love, but a classic vegetable soup is always high on the list in my opinion. Vegetable soup can sometimes be bland and lack luster in flavor, but I am here to tell you that this recipe for the best vegetable soup is going to change your mind about how tasty a bowl of vegetables in a delicious broth can truly be. I amped up the flavor in this recipe to make it the ultimate vegetable soup that you will crave all season long.
We are officially entering the season of cozy foods and to me that means more soups, pastas, and stick to your bones kinds of recipes will start to be made in my kitchen and probably in yours too. Skillet meals are something I try to cook a lot of because it always means less clean up for me and honestly, even though I love cooking, I absolutely dread the dishes afterwards. So anytime I can use less dishes to make a meal, then I am all for it. That’s why I decided to create this recipe for easy skillet chicken parmesan that would be a one pan deal that’s easy enough to make on any night of the week.
We only have a few more weeks of summer and I have mixed feelings about it all. I mean let’s be honest, in Texas we have about three more months of summer weather, but with every new season there is a shift. I am hanging on to low key dinner nights, grilling in the backyard, sounds of water splashing in the kiddie pool behind me, and not having too much of an agenda. So that’s what we are going do for these last weeks of summer. Let’s savor it all with a fun twist on a classic recipe that I grew up eating. Low country boils are popular in the south and are typically served up on a warm summer day spread out on newspapers and enjoyed with cold beers. But because not everyone has a ginormous pot hanging around and an outside burner, I am taking those same nostalgic flavors and making them easy enough for anyone to whip up any night of the week. This recipe for low country boil skewers is going to be your new favorite grilling recipe and you are going to love just how easy they are to make.
Salads for dinner are something that we have at our house at least twice a week. I know most people think salads can be a little boring, but I always make it my goal to make them hearty and full of flavor. Lately I have been obsessing over my cobb salad, and recently I have fallen in love again with my crispy baked buffalo chicken salad. This is a salad that I make anytime I get a craving for buffalo anything. It is a healthier meal idea that is super satisfying and can be made quickly any night of the week. This recipe for crispy baked buffalo chicken salad is one that will have you excited for salads at dinnertime over and over again.
Lettuce wraps are one of those things that I love having almost weekly. There are so many possibilities for flavor combinations and I especially love using lettuce wraps with spicy food because of the crisp freshness that the lettuce gives the dish. While you are probably most familiar with Asian Chicken Lettuce wraps, I love using wraps in other recipes as well. Spicy Korean pork is one of those foods that has an undeniable flavor and is actually really easy to create at home too. These delicious grilled spicy Korean pork lettuce wraps are a great weeknight dinner option and will quickly become a favorite dish in your house.
