Did you have a lovely, food-filled Eater? I did, and now I'm overloaded with more jelly beans than I know what to do with, a carton full of hard-boiled eggs, and a fridge stacked high with various leftover-filled plastic containers. I'm not sure how I'm ever going to get through all of this stuff. Are you right...

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...
Parmesan and Garlic Crusted Baked Potato Wedges
I am a fan of all sorts of cheeses: hard, melted, fondue, spreadable-- you name it. But by far my favorite is the kind that oozes onto the pan when you're baking and gets super crispy in the process. You know what I'm talking about. 10 times out of 10 I am going to pick...
Southwestern Chicken and Sweet Potato Skillet
Have you been keeping up with things around here? If so, you already know that James and I moved in together last month, and so far it's been a meltdown-free experience so I'm going to label it a success. As I write this, I'm sitting on our nicely made bed with our new sheets, comforter, pillows,...
One Pot Pasta Bolognese
Patience is not a virtue of mine. In a traffic jam, I'm a short breath away from abandoning my car and walking off into the wilderness. I pick up hobbies and swear them off forever if I find that I'm not a master knitter/painter/pianist within a month. I track my UPS packages every 20 minutes from the...
Ultimate Sweet Potato Casserole
Listen, I know that casseroles are supposed to be just "throw it together and bake" types of dishes, but sweet potato casserole is typically reserved for special holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas, and if I'm going to make anything on those days, I'm going to make it right. That means no dried out turkey, no soggy lasagna,...
One Pot Penne Alla Vodka with Sausage
All logical reasons considered, I should NOT like Penne Alla Vodka. I've only recently come around to tomato-based sauces (and still approach them with caution), and the vodka-- well, for all of the reasons I've ever imbibed, "Vodka is delicious" has never been one of them. Yet here I am, eating a bowl full of...
Chipotle Chicken Fried Rice
I have a weakness for Chinese takeout, especially with a heaping side of soy sauce-drenched fried rice. In fact, I always order extra so that I can eat the leftovers for lunch the next day... or two... or three. What can I say? I really like fried rice. So when I was asked to participate in the...
Slow Cooker Honey Chipotle Stout Enchiladas
Can you believe that it's already August? Where did the summer go? We're just over a month away from swapping out lemonade for pumpkin lattes and, you guys, I'm so not ready for the sun to start setting before I leave the office. We'll be packing away our swimsuits and taking out our sweaters in no time. NO. Nooooo!...
Crock Pot Chicken Tinga Tacos with Bacon Pico De Gallo
Happy Cinco de Mayo! How are you going to celebrate? (Pssst! If you're not planning on eating tacos tonight, it's time to reevaluate your choices.) Lately I've been absolutely swamped with things to do, so I've been trying to be a bit minimalistic in the kitchen. Simple recipes with a relatively short list of ingredients...
Pad Thai Potstickers
How do you make Pad Thai even better? Put it in a potsticker. Pad Thai is a street vendor style noodle dish from (you guessed it!) Thailand. Rice noodles are stir fried along with eggs, tofu, and often shrimp or chicken, and then it all gets a kick of flavor from tamarind and fish sauce....
One Pot Pesto Carbonara
Looking outside, I can hardly tell it's spring. The sky is grey, the grass is brownish, and the trees are still barren. O Sunshine, where art thou? We get less and less "spring weather" here in Jersey every year, it seems. Is it like that everywhere? Do you feel like it's either scorching hot summer...
Chipotle Ranch Chicken & Avocado Potstickers with Cilantro Lime Dip
Crispy bottoms and chewy tops make potstickers one of my favorite ways to eat appetizers. I don't just mean Asian-inspired appetizers, either; People typically think of potstickers as being filled with gingery pork, scallions, and cabbage, but you really can put anything in them! This time, I decided to go with a Tex Mex flavored...
One Pot Creamy Jalapeno Popper Chicken and Rice
A lot of my recipes are born out of laziness. Laziness or resourcefulness, depending on how you look at it. When I made this recipe, I was too resourceful to wash a ton of dishes. I was also too resourceful to drag myself out to the grocery store. I had a serious craving for One Pot Cheesy Chicken Taco Rice last week, but I found...
Butter Chicken Pot Pie with Naan Crust
It never fails-- when there's snow on the ground and a grumbling in my stomach, I always crave comfort food in the form of Chicken Pot Pie. Juicy chicken, tender vegetables, and creamy sauce all nestled beneath crisp, golden crust; that's my idea of cold weather consolation. Everything about Chicken Pot Pie screams "All-American classic"... but...
Cheesy Chorizo Cornbread Balls with Chipotle Dipping Sauce
If you're anything like me in the way that your one, truest of all true loves happens to be Mexican food, and your second truest of all true loves happens to be appetizers in their many forms, then do I have a treat for you! Also, we have a lot in common. We may be kindred...
Crispy-Skinned Baked Chicken Wings + Honey Chipotle Garlic Sauce
I am not what we'd call "proper" when it comes to table manners. I rest my elbows on the table. I devour my dinner in record time. If I chew on gristle or bone, I'll stick my hands right in my mouth and pick it out without a second thought. When I eat, I can guarantee...
One Pot Creamy Chicken Marsala Pasta
Now this is a story all about how my life got flipped-turned upside down. And I'd like to take a minute, just take a seat, I'll tell you how to make an easy dish everyone will want to eat. Iiiiiin a really large pot, with the burners ablaze, and boiling water, is where my pasta...
Crock Pot Kung Pao Chicken
This time of year, the Crock Pot and One Pot recipes look more and more appealing. I want as much flavor with as little effort as humanly possible when the holidays approach and the temperature plummets. This time of year, I don't have the time or the energy to do much that doesn't revolve around Christmas...
One Pot Greek Chicken Pasta with Creamy Feta Wine Sauce
Back when I was in college, my signature dish was Pasta Greco, an easy-to-make Greek-inspired pasta dish that I adapted from a local restaurant. When James and I were in the wee-beginning of our relationship and I was just beginning to realize that I could, in fact, make my own food instead of spending all...
Goat Cheese and Chive Mashed Potatoes
Mashed potatoes are, admittedly, one of my least favorite ways to get my share of spuds. It might just be me, but I'm extremely picky with my mashed potatoes, and most of them just don't make the cut. It's so easy for them too be too smooth, too lumpy, too gummy, too bland... and for...
Rosemary Olive Oil Crock Pot Bread, Take 2! Plus a recipe for Olive Oil Herb Dip
As I write this post, there is a photo over on the right-hand side of the blog, staring me in the face, right down into the depths of my soul. It's a photo that I am totally not proud of in any way, shape or form. It's a photo that I have GOT to get...
Chipotle, Black Bean, and Roasted Garlic Twice-Baked Sweet Potatoes
I love this combination of flavors so much that I've made 4 recipes now using chipotle peppers, black beans, roasted garlic, and sweet potatoes, trying to find the perfect way to use them on the blog. I've tried taquitos, soup, and quesadillas, but the recipe that really let all of the tastiness shine was Chipotle,...
Crock Pot White Bean Chicken Chili
We're half-way through September and we've got out feet firmly planted in soup season, which makes me a happy gal. Is there anything better than slurping up a big bowl of broth-bathed meat, noodles, and veggies? That was a rhetorical question-- the answer is yes. Yes, there is, by a margin. Her name is Chili. The...
Crock Pot Carnitas Tacos with Chipotle Cream
There are few things in the world more glorious than a meal that you prep in the morning, forget about for a few hours while you go to work or run errands or watch 6 back-to-back episodes of Project Runway on OnDemand (I can't be the only marathon-TV-watcher here), and put the final finishing touches...
Three Cheese Crock Pot Macaroni and Cheese
I'm sad to say that there was a point in my life when I hated Mac n' Cheese. Doesn't that make you sad for my childhood? Oh, the wasted years! For much of my life, I didn't realize that there was anything else out there other than the watery, powder-made instant cheese sauce from a box. No...
One Pot Cheesy Chicken Taco Rice
"One Pot" recipes have become favorites of mine, since a) I hate washing dishes and b) I hate washing dishes. By the way, did I mention that I hate washing dishes? Because I do. I hate it. But you know what I don't hate? Delicious chicken, beans, corn, rice, tomato, avocado, onions, and cheese all cooked together in...
Crispy Sea Salt and Vinegar Roasted Potatoes
Ever since making the Crispy-Outside Creamy-Inside Garlic Herb Potatoes, I have been totally and utterly obsessed with making the perfect potato side dishes. When done properly, potatoes can actually be the stars of your meal, and they fly off the plate like nothing you've ever seen before. Especially if that plate happens to be placed...
Crock Pot Hawaiian BBQ Chicken Tacos with Pineapple Slaw
When I'm in a creative slump, I always go to my friends and family for recipe inspiration. What does my cousin Ashley tell me to make every time? Hawaiian Chicken. Every. Single. Time. Even though she's been telling me to make Hawaiian Chicken for over a year now (seriously), I kept putting it off because......
One Pot Roasted Red Pepper and Sausage Alfredo
You know that feeling when you're working on something and you're like 75% sure it's not going to turn out well for one reason or another? That's how I felt about this One Pot Roasted Red Pepper and Sausage Alfredo. I should have been more confident, I guess, since the One Pot Spicy Chicken Riggies...
Skillet Scalloped Potatoes
Put some cheese-covered carbs in front of me, and I get weak in the knees. You could serve up pasta with Parmesan, mac and cheese, or crusty bread with melted mozzarella, and I would dive in face-first with reckless abandon. Cheesy carbs of any sort are just my thang... but the true obliterator of any...
Crispy-Outside Creamy-Inside Garlic Herb Potatoes
I know that the name of this side dish is on the brink of ridiculousness, but I could not, for the life of me, think of a way to describe them that gave them justice. They're so flavorful from the chicken stock, herbs, and garlic, and they have that texture combination that makes you swoon--...
Chipotle-Pesto Chicken Burrito Bowls
It all started in college, when I stumbled into a new fast food restaurant to hold me over in between classes. I wasn't expecting much, but after just one meal, I was hooked. Love at first bite. But after I graduated, I quickly outgrew that fast food obsession. I opt instead to cook all...
Crock Pot General Tso's Chicken
There are a lot of things that I've experienced over the years that I thought would be amazing but wound up being terrible ideas, like pregaming open bars, volunteering to do favors that I can't possibly fit into my schedule, or watching Juan Pablo be this season's Bachelor. (Seriously, by the end of the Finale...
Cheesesteak Potato Skins
For all of my life, I've lived only minutes away from Philadelphia. I've been to Pat's and Geno's, I've had my cheesesteaks wiz wit or with a generous amount of provolone, I've made them at home, I've laughed when people call them "Philly Steak and Cheeses", and I've firmly asserted my old belief that green...
Tequila Lime Chicken Sandwiches with Guacamole and Chipotle Mayo
When I go out to eat at a casual restaurant, there's about a 75% chance I'm going to get a chicken sandwich if there is one on the menu. It's only 75% because sometimes I like to "broaden my horizons", or whatever you'd like to call it. But the truth is I could get chicken...
One Pot Spicy Chicken Riggies
6 years ago, my then-roommate and good friend, Allie, asked me to make her something "spicy with chicken" for her birthday dinner. I wanted to make something that she'd never had before, and after scouring the web for inspiration, I became smitten with the idea of making Chicken Riggies. I'd never heard of them before...
Bacon, Cheddar, Caramelized Onion, and Potato Pierogi
I wish I could tell you that there was some deep background history behind these pierogi-- that my father grew up in Poland and brought back the recipe from his family's long tradition, or that my mother used to enjoy them in the heart of Pittsburgh and shared the city secret of adding sour cream...
Easy Cranberry Chipotle Cocktail Meatballs
I've got to be honest here, I didn't come up with this idea entirely. The recipe is tweaked from another recipe that I'm seeing everywhere lately-- one that is pretty good on its own but doesn't reach the its full potential, in my opinion. I would absolutely link to the original source if I had any...
Thyme Brown Butter Mashed Sweet Potatoes
I'm hardly the only person in the country who has a serious smorgasbord sprawled around the dining room table every Thanksgiving. My family always has the traditional staples-- turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, cranberry sauce-- and a few oddballs-- Grandma Sandy's steamed pork dumplings, whatever last-minute concoction I come up with, et cetera. However, there has...
