Lazy Sunday Casserole
When I saw a this recipe had “lazy” in the title, I knew I would be happy. Although baby boy is beginning to become more cooperative, I still have a heck of a time getting dinner on the table without some assistance from the husband. Thankfully he works from home, so most of the time, …
Texas Roadhouse Green Beans
I’m like a little kid when it comes to eating my vegetables. Once I see them, I start the “But Mom, I don’t LIKE [insert evil vegetable name here]!” whining. I guess that’s the fun part about adulthood…you don’t have anyone forcing you to eat the dreaded veggies. Or at least until you have kids. …
Pan-Roasted Chicken with Lemon-Garlic Green Beans and Potatoes
This is yet another Pinterest find that looked intriguing. The husband and my toddler man both love green beans, and I love lemon, so I added to my meal plan for the following week. This dish was so easy to throw together and works great for a weeknight if you have the time for everything …
Sesame-Miso Cucumber Salad
One of our favorite summer side dishes is a simple cucumber salad with bottled Italian dressing that sometimes includes some tomatoes or onions. I’d say we probably have this 3-4 nights a week. But let’s face it, sometimes the same old same old gets boring, right? Enter this yummy recipe for cucumber salad with some great …

CEiMB Rewind: Lemon Chicken Soup with Orzo
This is another recipe the CEiMB group made prior to my joining, and was also one I really wanted to try after buying Ellie Krieger’s cookbook, The Food You Crave. As usual with Ellie’s recipes, this one did not disappoint. The only thing I didn’t care for was the amount of onions and the celery, …
CEiMB Rewind: Chicken Cacciatore
This week’s CEiMB recipe was for Mushroom, Onion, and Basil Pizza and was chosen by Joanne of Apple Crumbles. Because we are leaving for vacation tomorrow, I did not have time to make this, but based on the posts I’ve seen so far, it will hit our menu very, very soon! Head on over to …
Japanese-Style Crispy Pork
I think I’ve mentioned multiple times that I have a bit of an addiction to cookbooks. Well, on top of that, I also have a bit of an addiction to magazine subscriptions, and most of those are food related. I saw this recipe for Japanese-Style Crispy Pork in Food Network Magazine, and knew I had …
