This is a classic weeknight meal, but dressed up. If it is winter you can keep to the stove but if it is summer feel free to head out and grill up that london broil! as always for one of these weeknight staples, feel free to substitute whatever protein your family prefers, or whatever rice […]

When you are craving pasta but don’t want the heaviness I highly recommend this delicious and easy soup.

Highlights Prep Time:

I used to think that serving up a homemade pasta sauce had to take a few hours of simmering. Don’t get me wrong, sometimes that is the best! But, during the week, you probably don’t have a few hours to sweat it out over a giant pot. Instead, this is my “go-to” easy weeknight sauce

A cheesy, buttery pasta will always have my heart, but if I can’t have that, then I am FOR SURE making this baked cavatelli. It is GOOEY. It is CHEESY. It has TOMATOES. Best, of all, it is entirely one pot! This is an excellent weeknight dinner that is easy to pull together and dresses

A sweet and salty teriyaki marinade will get me every time! It is so good. You can use this recipe as a guide and mix/match any protein and sides that your family prefers! I use the grill heavily to simplify clean-up here but feel free to adjust your temperatures and times if you gotta go

This is the ultimate kid friendly and adult approved macaroni and cheese!It is SO incredibly delicious, and so incredibly easy, you’ll definitely add this to your repertoire in no time. Using cream cheese makes this delightfully creamy without excessive heaviness and shredding multiple giant blocks of cheese which can be a pain. I also love
