It was a cold, rainy day today, so I felt like making comfort food. Aside from the apple cinnamon streusel muffins I made in the previous post, I made a creamy sausage chowder and some dinner rolls. I’ve made dinner rolls before, but haven’t been entirely satisfied with the consistency or flavor. This recipe, though,…

Perfectly Crispy Chicken Wings with Parmesan Garlic Butter Sauce
The quintessential bar food, wings, is something that reminds me a lot of working at the cabinet factory when I lived in Upstate NY. It was one of my favorite jobs I have EVER had, and one of the few I’ve held outside the culinary industry. I think what made it so awesome for me was…
Bruschetta Chicken with Spinach Stuffed Portobello
The recipe list on this looks pretty overwhelming, but the actual process is actually super quick and easy. Well, when I was slapping this little diddy together last night, it actually kinda felt like slacking. I really didn’t see it turning into a blog post (believe it or not, not ALL our recipes do). Once…
Stuffed Meatballs with Bacon and Parmesan Broccoli
Today, my husband, Steve, and I were pretty out of sorts. I woke up at about 5 am with a panic attack (you know how it is, worrying about things you legitimately can do NOTHING about) and felt off for the rest of the day. I was grumpy, which caused Steve to become grumpy. Then…
Spaghetti Squash Carbonara Tossed with Baby Arugala and Served with a Garlic “Bread” Bun
So I’m going to make this post short, because I’m legitimately EXHAUSTED. I had a long, drawn out day of cleaning and cooking and chasing a particularly peevish eighteen month old with a six month old strapped to my body. The struggle was real today, folks, and I was soooo happy I decided to make…
Fried Tomato Portabello Stacks
Last night was glorious. I’ve been itching to start experimenting with keto-friendly breading because fried foods have always been off-limits for me on more conventional diets I’ve been on in the past. Not that anyone out there in internet land over the age of 28 knows this feeling…. I noticed, last night, as I was…
Chicken Cacciatore Lasagna
Back in the day, when mom and I subscribed to that low-fat, high protein life, one of our go-to recipes was chicken cacciatore. I still love it. And now that I’m on the ketogenic diet, it’s not that I CAN’T have it, I can, but I would have to have a small helping of it…
