• Bison Chili

    May 8, 2023

    Looking for a delicious meat-based chili? This bison chili is packed with flavor and some subtle heat for a truly tasty dinner. Eat it as is or pair it with spaghetti noodles and you’ll have dinner everyone will be raving about. Except for maybe your kids, because let’s be honest. Their palettes aren’t exactly … varied. So maybe just make them the spaghetti noodles and savor the chili for yourself. I know, I know. A meat-based chili recipe after I just got done professing my love for bean-based chilis. But hear me out. It’s really delicious and it’s made with…

  • Slow Cooker Lentil And Bean Chili

    April 30, 2023

    This slow cooker lentil and bean chili is an easy and delicious crockpot dump meal that the whole family will enjoy. It only requires 10 minutes of hands on time and is perfect for those week nights where you only have a few minutes tops to devote to dinner. I feel like there are two types of chili eaters in the world: team beans and team gimme the meats. I fall squarely into team beans. There’s just something about beef and tomato sauce together that makes me a little queasy. I hate meat sauce on pasta. Spaghetti and meatballs is…

  • Buffalo Turkey (or Chicken) Meatballs

    December 20, 2022

    These buffalo turkey meatballs are seriously heaven in meatball form. They are easy to make and insanely flavorful. They also happen to be low-carb and gluten free, so bonus points for that! I’m pretty much a sucker for any and all things buffalo sauce. My all-time favorite sandwich is buffalo chicken. My all time favorite wrap is a buffalo chicken wrap (that I’m officially still obsessed with). And my all-time favorite vegetarian dish is the buffalo falafel from Bad Manners. I’ve lost count of how many times we’ve made that one over the years… Everyone in the House of Lev…

  • Instant Pot Whole Roasted Chicken

    November 23, 2022

    Enjoy a whole roasted chicken in under an hour with this Instant pot recipe. Nothing beats how flavorful, tender, and juicy it is, except maybe how little time it actually takes to make it. I’m a late adapter when it comes to kitchen appliances. Mainly because I feel like everything I cook can be made in the oven or on the stove. But also because I’m afraid of wasting money on something I’ll never use. Which is why it took me years to purchase an Instant Pot*. I still haven’t quite figured out everything it can do, but what I’ve…

  • Instant Pot Butternut Squash Soup

    November 18, 2022

    This Instant Pot Butternut Squash Soup is rich and creamy (without dairy!) and is an absolute delight. Enjoy some now or freeze it for later, this is definitely a great one to have on hand for when a soup craving strikes. It’s soup weather, it’s soup weather, it’s sooooouuuuup weather! And that means I get to put at least one soup on the menu each week. (Any more than that and my family revolts.) One of my favorite soups to make (besides chicken soup, of course) is a butternut squash soup. I love how rich and creamy it is and…

  • Chicken And Rice Soup

    November 16, 2022

    When the weather drops and/or you’re craving soup, nothing satisfies quite like chicken and rice soup. Ready in 30 minutes (or less), you’ll definitely want to make this one again and again. With colder weather approaching, it is one thousand percent soup weather. Homemade chicken soup happens to be one of my all-time favorites. There is something so comforting to me about the process of making it; a large stock pot filled with water, a whole chicken, some celery, carrots, and onions or leeks, and a few cloves of garlic on the stove for a few hours. The smells that…

  • Chicken and Leek Burgers

    November 11, 2022

    Made from a grand total of 5 ingredients, these chicken and leek burgers are flavorful AND easy to make. Two things that make me a very very happy person. And make it incredibly easy to get a delicious meal on the table pronto. I love a meal that can be eaten for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. So whenever I stumble upon an idea that allows me to do that, I latch onto it with immense speed. It also helps to make the nights when the kidlets refuse to eat what I make for dinner a little more tenable. That’s where…
