This baked pesto caprese chicken recipe is an easy and healthy meal and is such a fun twist on the classic caprese salad! The combination of tomato, basil, and pesto is tried and true in salad form, and as we've found, it translates well when used with chicken as a main dish!
This scrumptious dish with abundant egg noodles and veggies is a great go-to-dish when there’s a family gathering or potluck. If you know me, you know that this was the dish I went for first at any gathering. The best part is this dish can be served hot or cold and it's delicious either way. I typically serve this with soy sauce or vegetarian dipping sauce on the side so that everyone can adjust the seasoning to their preference.
This light traditional Vietnamese banana, coconut, and tapioca pudding (che chuoi) was one of my favorite desserts growing up. It’s lightly sweetened and the cooked bananas add the perfect tang. I remember eating this until I couldn’t fit anymore in me. You can serve che chuoi warm or cold so it’s perfect for warming you up on cold mornings or giving you a refresh on a hot summer day!
Strawberries? Avocados? Yes, please! This unlikely duo makes for a simple breakfast or afternoon treat.
I have to say the slow cooker is probably one of the best cooking appliances to be invented. You can throw all your ingredients in and set it and forget it. This slow cooker BBQ chicken with peppers and onions recipe is made with a few simple ingredients and is great for those winter months when it's too cold to grill outdoors.
If you like seasoning your Asian dishes with the typical Vietnamese condiment called nuoc mam, but find it too strong for your taste or simply if you're a vegetarian, this dipping sauce is for you.
Tender beef, soft tofu, some scallions, and just the right amount of sauce over a bed of white or brown rice is a quick, and totally satisfying meal for any day of the week!
Peanut butter chicken noodles is one of my favorite noodle dishes. It’s quick, tasty, and full of peanut buttery goodness; perfect for those busy weekday nights! Toss in some chicken, noodles, cabbage, carrots, and you’re good to go.
