Strawberry Pancakes
Happy Valentine’s Day out there! If you happen to be a breakfast and brunch kind of person, this is the treat for you! If I didn’t have to work all day on Valentine’s Day I would be making these for Mike and I for sure. Maybe I’ll make them this weekend! We’re still finalizing our […]
Sweet and Crispy Brussels Sprouts
Mike and I live about halfway between Hartford, CT and Springfield, MA which puts us a short commute away from a lot of fantastic restaurants. Our first date was at a small family owned Mexican restaurant called Bueno y Sano. My favorite BBQ restaurant in the whole world is in Springfield at a restaurant called […]
Chocolate Cherry Pie Protein Shake
Now that it’s February I am ready for all of the Valentine’s Day recipes! I know, I know, it’s a Hallmark holiday. Whatever. But I still love it all the same. An excuse to consume chocolate? Yes please! Have you ever seen that movie Valentine’s Day? It’s been out for about a decade now but […]
Spicy Southwest Breakfast Casserole
I haven’t really been into eating breakfast lately. And by breakfast I mean the meal that I eat at my desk at 4:00 pm. About 3ish years ago Mike told me about intermittent fasting and I’ve been doing it pretty steadily every since. Sometimes on the weekends I’ll eat a late breakfast if I want […]
Air Fryer Buffalo Wings
Today I read that 1.3 billion (!!!!) chicken wings are consumed Super Bowl weekend alone. This is a statistic that I can’t quite wrap my head around. We recently got the Butcher Box Wings for Life deal and I’m darn glad we did. I love chicken wings and now we eat a ton of them […]
Bacon Cheeseburger Chowder
I will start this post off by saying that this soup is a labor of love. Yes, I am asking you to cook bacon until crisp and then remove it from the pot. I am also asking you to brown ground beef in the same pot, and remove it again. I’m then asking you to […]
Meal Prep Buffalo Chicken Balance Bowls
Yeah yeah yeah. The title of this recipe is unnecessarily long. But it just be like that sometimes, you know? Does the term “balance bowl” irritate you? Does it sound pretentious? I’ll tell you what it means to me. Protein, fat, carbs, green vegetable. All up in one happy little healthy bowl. That’s it! In […]
Winter Wellness Soup
I wasn’t planning on putting this recipe on the blog, which is why there are next to no pictures of it. But I do believe that it healed Mike and I of our illnesses that we contracted from who knows where (my money is on my kind coworkers -_-) so for that reason alone I […]
Sheet Pan Breakfast Bake
As promised, I’m back with my second Whole30 breakfast recipe of the week! This one is pretty different from my first post of the week in that this recipe is a sheet pan meal (praise hands emoji for the simplicity of it) AND it’s egg free for those intolerant or just for those who are […]
Buffalo Chicken Breakfast Bites
I am quite confident that two things and two things alone get me through a Whole30 every time I decide to do one: buffalo sauce and potatoes. I know that potatoes weren’t always allowed on the Whole30 program, and I’m thankful that I found Whole30 after potatoes received the clearance they now have. A Whole30 […]
