Easy Ramen Stir Fry

I am all about those easy, homemade lunches during the week. I fortunately have the luxury of working from home and have the ability to make lunch during the day. I realize that most people do not have that, but if you do, this recipe is a great one. It comes together in about 30Continue reading “Easy Ramen Stir Fry”

Crispy Tacos with Chipotle Sauce

Tacos in all forms are delicious – I tend to lean towards soft tacos, but these crispy tacos are hard to pass up! These are baked in the oven, so they are much healthier than a fried version and they could even be made in the air fryer. I opted for the oven though sinceContinue reading “Crispy Tacos with Chipotle Sauce”

Sesame Chicken

Better than takeout sesame chicken is all you need tonight. Skip that doordash or drive thru and make this for dinner instead. This is not your Panda Express order, in fact it is so much better! My version is light and healthy, highlighting the fresh chicken with a light sauce and sauteed peppers to roundContinue reading “Sesame Chicken”

Tomato Soup + Grilled Cheese Dunkers

Nothing says comfort to me like grilled cheese and tomato soup. I used to eat this when I was sick, when we had snow days, or when I just wanted something tasty. The version I ate growing up came from a can and from plastic wrapped cheese, but this recipe will still give you theContinue reading “Tomato Soup + Grilled Cheese Dunkers”

Italian Sausage Rigatoni

Okay, so I tricked y’all a bit in the title – this recipe is actually made with ground turkey instead of sausage BUT I season it in a way that makes it taste exactly like Italian sausage, just without all the fat and calories. This is the perfect recipe when you want something comforting butContinue reading “Italian Sausage Rigatoni”

Kura Sushi Pt. 2

Kura sushi is still all the rage across the country, but luckily the fandom in Bellevue has died down a bit. I have been on a sushi kick lately and really wanted to go back to Kura for hopefully less of a wait time. This time, we were greeted with a fairly empty parking lotContinue reading “Kura Sushi Pt. 2”
