This One Pot Creamy Hummus Pasta takes only a few simple ingredients, one pot, and 20 minutes to prepare! The instant silky sauce is so satisfying and full of flavor, you'll have a hard time believing you whipped it up yourself. As someone who must, at all times, have a gargantuan tub of hummus within...
Pasta e Ceci (One Pot Pasta and Chickpeas)
Pasta e Ceci is a one-pot pasta recipe that's just as remarkably easy as it is iconic. "Pasta e Ceci" is Italian for pasta and chickpeas, and that's exactly what you get here. Well, that and a garlic and chili flake spiked tomato broth, a generous drizzle of olive oil, and --if you're feeling daring--...
Chicken and Sweet Potato Skillet with Smoky Maple-Dijon Sauce
In this easy Chicken and Sweet Potato Skillet, tender-crisp chicken thighs are nestled into an autumn bounty of sweet potatoes, apples, onion, and bacon, then finished off with a finger-lickin Smoky Maple-Dijon Sauce.
Easy Enchilada Skillet
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...
Skillet Cheddar-Cornbread BBQ Chicken Pot Pie
How to live your best life when it's cold outside: Throw on a pair of sweatpants, make this spin on chicken pot pie, and spoon it into your mouth as you cuddle up on the couch. I'm speaking from experience here. When it comes to making dinner for myself (that is to say, without the...
Easy BBQ Bacon Baked Beans
I try not to throw the word "ultimate" around here too much because there are thousands of classic recipes on the web, but sometimes I sink my fork into something that's too good for modesty... and you guys, after my first bite of these beans, I knew it was one of those times. I've made...
One Pot Cajun Chicken Alfredo
This post is sponsored by Sutter Home, who inspired James and I to have a delicious date night for the #SweetOnSpice campaign. Cheers to that! I can't think of a single dish that I've made over the past year and a half that James and I have been living together that he didn't taste. He's...
Sticky Chipotle-Peach Chicken
I'll get to this Sticky Chipotle-Peach Chicken in a second, but first I have to ask, is it just me? Am I the only one whose mind, during the duller moments of the day, drifts to all of the cringe-worthy choices and mortifying mistakes made in the past? Usually it's the parked car I hit shortly...
20 Minute Sweet & Sticky Caribbean Shrimp
I'm in complete and utter denial that we've returned to this time of year. Not because of the holidays (I happen to like those), but because I need to smother myself in 68 layers of sweater material to somewhat-comfortably waddle my way to the mailbox. We're talking the type of outfits that would rival Randy's from...
One Pot Cheesy Buffalo Chicken Pasta
It was bound to happen. Between my buffalo chicken obsession and never-ending stream of one pot pasta recipes, you probably saw this coming, right? Yes, you know what I'm talking about. It's creamy, it's cheesy, it's spicy, and it's carby. It's what love songs and heart-eye-emojis were made for. It's all of my guilty pleasures wrapped up into one...
Harissa-Lime Chicken and Couscous Skillet
Do you remember the movie Pleasantville? You know, the one where young Tobey Maguire and Reese Witherspoon get sucked into a swell little 1950s TV town, and their influence transforms it into a place that's colorful and sexy and lively and dangerous and all of those adjectives that are sooooooo much better than "pleasant"?
One Pot Chicken Cordon Bleu Alfredo with Toasted Breadcrumbs
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...
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...
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...
The Best One Bowl Brownies
You guys, I have been trying for a long time now to come up with the best brownies. I have tested all of the celebrated brownie recipes my little heart could handle, and I found promise in some, but not perfection. I have compared to box mixes. I have compared to bakery brownies. I have talked to...
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...
