For creamy, cheesy, comforting goodness, give my broccoli cheddar soup a try! This hearty soup is loaded with all kinds of vegetable goodness, but uses simple everyday ingredients.
If you’re wondering what’s on the menu tonight, my baked lemon rosemary chicken is always a good option. Marinated in fresh lemon juice and aromatic herbs and then quickly baked to perfection, this baked lemon rosemary chicken is sure to be a winner at the dinner table.
If you’re in a dinner rut and need something easy (basically us all the time) then my baked tilapia with ginger and cilantro is for you. Tilapia cooks so fast, making this dish the perfect palate pleasing last minute meal. The marinade is a fresh and aromatic combination of garlic, ginger, and cilantro and once baked, the tilapia literally melts in your mouth!
One of the easiest and tastiest Vietnamese chicken dishes is this Vietnamese lemongrass chicken. It’s marinated in a tangy blend of soy sauce, fish sauce, garlic, and lemongrass, meaning it’s packed full of fresh, aromatic,delicious flavors. So easy to make and no-fuss!
Let’s taco ‘bout this hearty chicken taco pasta! When taco night meets pasta, magic happens. This taco-inspired pasta is packed with bold, fresh flavors, and best of all, you only need 20 minutes to put it all together!
It doesn't get any more fuss-free than this. This is the most hearty, mouthwatering, creamy slow cooker kielbasa and potatoes ever! All you need are 5 ingredients and 10 minutes of hands-on prep time and your slow cooker will take care of the rest! While I like to serve this delicious dish over a bed of arugula and spinach, it's chock full of savory goodness all on its own and can be served as a main dish or as an appetizer.
Sugar, spice, and everything nice - Lemon Ginger Zingers made by my smart cookie, Chris.
Bean there...ate that! In Vietnam, sweet soups or puddings are known as chè. This Vietnamese Mung Bean Dessert, called che dau xanh, is easily one of the most simple Vietnamese desserts to make. Mung beans are said to have cooling properties on the body and other health benefits, but I'm no doctor. To me, this is purely a yummy dessert that can be served hot, cold, or over crushed ice. All you need are 4 simple ingredients - mung beans, sugar, coconut milk, and water!
With fall (almost) here, it’s the perfect time for deliciously warm & cozy comfort food! One of my personal favorites is this tasty coconut curry chicken noodle soup. It’s simple to make, but oh so good. You can’t go wrong!
This is not your ordinary bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich. I woke up this morning craving a breakfast sandwich and made this quick and delicious sandwich with toasted French bread, pesto, cheddar, scrambled eggs, prosciutto, and arugula.
I'd make a vegetable joke, but you guys might not carrot all. Pickled carrots and daikon are a signature addition to Vietnamese dishes. If you've ever had Vietnamese food, you've probably caught a glimpse of this colorful condiment. These crunchy pickled vegetables are best known as an addition to banh mi (Vietnamese sandwiches), but they're a tasty snack all on their own and they also go well with spring rolls, vermicelli dishes, savory crepes...the list goes on!
This dish is so good, it's pre-pasta-rous! Juicy pork and fresh arugula are served with a heavenly homemade lemon sauce in this pasta dish. It's the perfect balance of flavors that we just can't get enough of.
