Creamy baked orzo & chicken
It can be hard to find, but Delallo makes a corn/rice gluten free orzo. There may be other GF brands, but this is the only GF orzo I’ve found so far. I love it because it has a great texture and neutral flavor! Season chicken with kosher salt and fresh ground pepper, paprika, oregano. In […]
My Grandma’s Apple Crisp
Growing up, apple crisp was my favorite dessert that my Grandma made. I’ve made this countless times in my adult years–every fall when apple season starts. I’ve cut down the sugar a bit from the original recipe and I think it’s better this way. I don’t want it too sweet, especially if you top it […]
Risotto
I love risotto as a side dish with fish or chicken. It’s versatile and decadent. This recipe is for mushroom risotto but you can also replace the mushrooms for any other vegetables or mix-ins. I also like to make green risotto with peas and finish it with fresh herbs. For another level of decadence, add […]
Taco Skillet
Taco skillet is a super fast and easy dinner and is also very versatile. I make this dish all the time. It’s what I make if we need a warm dinner in a flash, if hubby is cooking, or if I don’t know what else to make. It can be made dairy-free without cheese and […]
Zuppa Toscana
This is Olive Garden copycat recipe is one of my top favorite soups to cook. It comes together fast and is so savory and full of flavor. It goes great with a salad and some bread, or just by itself–it’s a one dish meal afterall! Don’t cook it too long or the potatoes will start […]
Tandoori Coconut Chicken and Rice

Creamy Chicken and Wild Rice Soup
During the cold months we like to make homemade soup on Sundays and we call it Soup Sunday. We love soup! One of my favorites to make is Creamy Chicken and Wild Rice Soup. I’ve been making this for years. There are so many ways you can customize this soup. The base is savory, salty […]
Pumpkin Bread
One of my favorite things to bake in the fall is pumpkin bread. I got this recipe over 10 years ago from my husband’s coworker’s wife. I had made pumpkin bread that turned out just OK and then we had guests over for Thanksgiving and she was one of them. She brought over pumpkin bread […]
Pumpkin Pancakes
Fall is here and that means pumpkin everything! I created this recipe for Pumpkin Pancakes from a couple of other pancake recipes I had been using, and I adapted this using GF flour and canned pumpkin. I have made these with both brown sugar and coconut sugar and brown sugar gives these much better flavor. […]
