This Easy Enchilada Skillet is a one-pot meal that features from-scratch flavors. (Yup, there’s no canned enchilada sauce in this one)! Loaded up with ground beef, beans, and corn tortilla strips; smothered in sauce and cheese; broiled until melty; and topped with tangy pickled onions and radishes, this dinner recipe has it all. Someone needs…
Spicy, Crispy, Orange Beef
Spicy, Crispy Orange Beef. This version of the Chinese takeout classic features thin slices of crisp sirloin steak that are tossed in a spicy, sweet, and savory orange sauce. You can make it at home in less time than it takes to get delivery. (And it’ll taste better, too!) My aunt and uncle are…
Pan-Fried Garlic Butter Steak with Crispy Potatoes and Asparagus
Pan-Fried Garlic Butter Steak with Crispy Potatoes and Asparagus. Meet the equally simple and sexy date night meal that will change the way you tackle romantic dinners forever. The key? A high heat sear on the steak followed by lots of basting with garlicky herb butter to finish off the cooking process. At the risk…
Sheet Pan Cheesesteak Nachos
Sheet Pan Cheesesteak Nachos. Inspired by Philadelphia’s most well-known sandwich, these nachos feature flour tortilla chips, thinly shaved steak, sauteed onions, hot cherry peppers, provolone cheese, and cheese sauce. This recipe for Sheet Pan Cheesesteak Nachos was also featured on Serious Eats. I never imagined I’d be sad eating nachos. Unless, of course, they were…
French Onion Beef Stroganoff

It features tender beef steak, caramelized onions, mushrooms (if you like them!), egg noodles, rich beef gravy, and of course, plenty of delicious melted cheese. Is it just me, or does everything taste at least a hundred…
Jack Daniels Burgers
Jack Daniels Burgers. These juicy, glazed cheeseburgers taste just like the ones at T.G.I. Friday’s. The sweet, sticky glaze (and a few tips) will take your typical backyard burgers to the next level. Like most of the recipes I share here, this one started with an obsession. Unlike the rest, however, the obsession wasn’t mine at…
Loaded Juicy Lucy Sheet Pan Sliders
My housemate has been waiting for me to make this recipe since I moved in. It’s been, uh, two years… so sorry for the slight delay. I off-handedly mentioned the idea of sheet pan sliders in a random conversation with James’ friend Mike a couple of years back, when I first visited his place to…
Slow Cooker Sticky Bacon & Whiskey Meatballs
When I was reading my list of upcoming recipes aloud for James, he stopped me at this one. “That sounds like a great snack for poker night with the guys,” he hinted. (He is so subtle, isn’t he?) But I had big, estrogen-packed plans for these Slow Cooker Sticky Bacon & Whiskey Meatballs: I was going to…
Slow Cooker Ancho Coffee Shredded Beef
I’m trying to be a glass-half-full sort of person, so instead of apologizing that this Slow Cooker Ancho Coffee Shredded Beef recipe wasn’t out in time for you to pile it into your Cinco de Mayo tacos, I’m going to say that I’m doing a public service by sharing it with you SO FAR AHEAD…
Enchilada Meatball Pasta Bake
This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #MeatballPerfection #CollectiveBias I consider myself a “what-you-see-is-what-you-get” type of gal, so when people ask me what tricks I have up my sleeves to get dinner on the table on busy nights or make an appetizer at a moment’s…
Jalapeño Popper Pigs in a Blanket
Narrowing down my Super Bowl menu has been next to impossible this year. Not only because I think I have some seriously scrumptious recipes in my repertoire (so humble, I know), but mainly because I am the most indecisive human of all time. For evidence of this, take note of the post from earlier this…
French Onion Beef Sliders For A Crowd
Daaaamn, Morgan! Back at it again with the white vans french onion soup spin-offs! … Is what I imagine you’re yelling at your screen right now. Because if there’s one thing that I most certainly am, it’s hip to the viral videos of 10 months ago. And if there’s another, it’s consistent. As in I’m…
Slow Cooker Short Rib Ragu with Horseradish Gremolata
Happy twenty-seventeen, friends. I hope you’ve started off the year hopeful about all of the things that lie ahead. Because I’m an over-thinker of epic proportions, you have to know that I’ve spent the past 48 hours painstakingly analyzing what I think the legacy of 2017 will be. By analyzing, of course I mean without any data…
30 Minute Thai Beef Stir Fry with Sriracha Roasted Peanuts
The toothpaste is out of the tube, and there’s no putting it back. Not that anyone would want to. Thai food has been in the US since long before I was born. It was largely introduced when Vietnam War soldiers were on R&R in Thailand and enjoyed local dishes, fell for the women who prepared them, and brought…
Slow Cooker Smothered Beef Burritos
The only limes that I’ve been able to find throughout the past few weeks of recipe-making have been intimidatingly large. As in REALLY HUGE. As in close your eyes and picture a softball, but then imagine that it has a green rind surrounding it– that’s what these limes look like. They kind of freak me out (“but WHY are they so big?”),…
Irish Baked Potato Soup with Corned Beef and Crispy Leeks
My love story with potato soup is on a better-than-Twilight, stronger than Kim and Kanye, transgressing all pop culture kind of level. It’s the real deal. And if you’re with me (whether or not you’re Irish, and while we’re at it, whether or not you have any idea what I’m talking about at all right…
