Creamy Tomato Basil Soup (Panera Copy-Cat recipe)This soup was delicious. It was creamy and rich (as it should be with the insane amount of cream in it) but it was also full of flavor. The recipe made a ton so I gave some to my neighbor, froze some, and we are some. I can't wait to defrost the other batch. This is my new staple recipe for tomato soup.Source: Slightly adapted from… |

Crunchy Honey BBQ ShrimpI'm the first to admit that I'm not above shortcuts in the kitchen. I love to cook but I hate dirtying 5,000 dishes so I often use shortcuts that allow me to take the semi-homemade approach to cooking. To some that makes me a bad food blogger, but to this working mom it makes me a genius.Landon is a huge fan of shrimp. He will eat… |

Double Chocolate CookiesI am so backlogged with recipes that when I made these cookies they were for my dear friend, Gina's, baby shower at work. She has since had the babies and they are one month old! So...yeah... I'm a little behind. What can I say!These cookies were a total hit. I have to say, I've made a few versions of chocolate chocolate chip cookies… |

OMG Crockpot ChickenAs I've evolved as a cook I rely less and less on easy ingredients and focus on more real ingredients. With that said... this meal is the LEAST "real" meal I've made in a long time! There's tons of processed ingredients, it's full of sodium, and therefore delicious. This recipe was all the rage in an online community I'm in so I… |

Crispy Southwestern Chicken in a Salsa Verde Cream SauceIf you follow me on Facebook you're aware of why I've disappeared for the past two months! If you don't, I'm so excited to announce that I am pregnant with our second child, due in July. I am just about 14 weeks pregnant now and finally feel great again. Not only did I not blog for two months but I didn't eat or cook! We survived on… |

Creamy Balsamic ChickenBefore I was a mom I had visions that I would be the mom who had a kid that was a great eater. Then I had Landon and the fist year and a half he was a great eater, so I assumed I rocked. I mean, I cook! A lot! All types of stuff! I assumed it was a given. I was even smug about it. "Oh...your kid eats XYZ?! No...not mine... He LOVES… |

Lemon Orzo SoupIt's so cold in the Northeast right now. I really can't complain because Buffalo is under 6 feet of snow with more coming, and I've yet to see a flake this year, but none the less we're all freezing here! When it's freezing one of my favorite things to eat is soup. If I'm being honest I really like to eat soup because I REALLY like to… |

Ranch Chicken EnchiladasIt wasn't too long ago when I had realized I had never had a "real enchilada"- meaning one from a Mexican restaurant. Sure, I've been making them at home for a few years, but I had never gotten them out. We went out a couple weeks ago and I ordered enchiladas and I can honestly say... I prefer my own. There. I said it. I just love the… |

Lemon Parmesan TortelliniOnce upon a time I didn't like cream sauces. I thought they were gross, globby, and too heavy. I still often feel that when it comes to cream sauces that you get at restaurants, but I have found the perfect balance for a homemade cream sauce: 1 part chicken broth:1 part cream. For me this prevents the "globby" texture but keeps the… |

Thanksgiving Turkey BrineI started hosting Thanksgiving about five years ago. My first two years were big to-dos. I had sugar cookie name tags, or place settings with homemade caramel corn, compound butters, and homemade rolls. Three years ago I hosted Thanksgiving at 9 months pregnant. In fact, my son was born just four days after! That year I took a lesson… |
