If there’s one thing you need to know about me, it’s that I LOVE to snack. My favorite ‘meal’ consists of small snacks throughout the day. Carrots and hummus here, a string cheese there and my personal favorite: these healthy, filling and wholesome No-Bake Granola Bars.
Beef Stroganoff
This classic recipe has proved itself time and time again. If soft egg noodles topped with strips of buttery beef and roasted mushroom gravy doesn’t make your mouth water, then I just don’t know what will.
BLT Soup
Yep, you heard me right…BLT Soup. This recipe takes all the delicious, savory flavors of a bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich and puts them in a creamy soup. Let’s break it down. B: The bacon stays closest to it’s original form. I used very thick cut, applewood smoked bacon. Instead of laying it on in strips, chop into small pieces…
Sausage & Corn Stuffed Poblano Peppers with Roasted Tomatillo Salsa
These stuffed poblano peppers just shot to the top of my favorite-meals-to-make list. This recipe is a perfect combination of flavors. The poblano peppers and spicy Italian sausage add the heat, while the corn brings the crunch and sweetness. The melted monterey jack cheese helps to hold the pepper together, but my favorite and most surprising addition is the tomatillo salsa. After eyeing these juicy…
Apple, Brie & Honey Quesadilla
Forget dinner, it’s snack time! And this recipe, gooey brie cheese, crisp apples and honey all melted together in a tortilla is one you’re going to want to make everyday. Perfect as an appetizer or an indulgent mid-afternoon snack, this recipe takes everyday ingredients and turns them into something incredible. The key is to get the…
White Bean Chicken Green Chili
Some of my favorite memories are coming off the slopes from a long day of skiing to a big bowl of steaming chili at the lodge. I grew up skiing in Deer Valley, Utah where the mountains are beautiful and their turkey chili is on point. This recipe puts a unique twist on my childhood favorite, while still incorporating…
Summertime Pasta
Summer may be over, but this pasta tastes delicious year round. It’s light, fresh and the flavors work well paired with just about anything. This recipe is an Ina Garten classic. She has such an amazing way of taking simple ingredients and turning them into a delicious and impressive meal. What’s great is the marinade takes only a few minutes to make and can be left out at…
Swedish Meatballs & Egg Noodles
So I have to come clean. While I do still live in the big city, I no longer cook in a tiny kitchen. I know, I’m living a lie, but the name Big City, Medium Kitchen just didn’t have the same ring to it. A few weeks ago, I upgraded and moved into a new…
Wheat Berry Salad
I’m literally typing as I’m eating, this salad turned out so delicious I couldn’t wait to share. It’s so simple and fresh and goes with absolutely anything. If you are not familiar with wheat berries, they are a fibrous whole grain with a nutty taste and a delightful chewy texture, almost similar to rice. I paired the…
Pasta Carbonara
What could be better than pasta carbonara, I mean it’s basically like having breakfast for dinner. Coincidentally breakfast is my favorite meal, so you could say I’m a sucker for a big bowl of bacon, egg and noodle deliciousness. My recipe uses bucatini noodles, which are thick hollow noodles perfect for soaking up the egg, parmesan and cream…
