Coconut Chicken Curry

We’re getting ready for darker and colder nights and my favorite thing to do when that happens is to make soups and stews. This Curry is not technically one of those, but it tastes like a hybrid and it warms that belly right up. It’s also a great make ahead dish that is easily reheatedContinue reading “Coconut Chicken Curry”

Pumpkin Munchkins

Gingerbread and Speculoos got married and had a baby! That’s what these taste like, no kidding! It’s fall and I have to be careful not to overdo it with the pumpkin since I like it way more than my family does, but who can say no to pumpkin muffins, amiright? I had to tweak theContinue reading “Pumpkin Munchkins”

Hushpuppies

To be honest, I have never had a real Hushpuppy in my life… I grew up in The Netherlands and we don’t have them there. The author of this recipe says these are pretty darn close to the real thing and since she has given me TONS of delicious spot on recipes, I tend toContinue reading “Hushpuppies”

Mozzarella Pesto Pizza

I like to make meals from scratch, but let’s face it, for most of us juggling all the things (yes, ALL lol) life does not (always) leave us with enough time to stand in the kitchen every day and create such master pieces 😉 Add virtual school and, on Thursday evenings, Hockey nights for meContinue reading “Mozzarella Pesto Pizza”

Crispy Tofu on Asian Inspired Salad

The air fryer, one of my most used appliances in a normal week (meaning, when I am not working on a themed recipe week like this one!). I use it for almost everything… better yet; I have two of them! We upgraded to an XL awhile ago but kept the smaller one… and it’s superContinue reading “Crispy Tofu on Asian Inspired Salad”

Chile Relleno Soup

Happy Fall y’all! It’s officially of fall and fall always makes me crave hearty soups. What’s better than a big bowl of soup to warm your belly now that the nights are getting colder and darker? Today our taste buds will visit Mexico through spicy Poblano Peppers, Garlic, Onion, Jalapenos and fresh herbs. As aContinue reading “Chile Relleno Soup”

Cauliflower Rice with Mushrooms and Spinach

Welcome to our first theme week! This recipe is the first one of 5 days of vegetarian meals keto style 🙂 Cauliflower rice; it’s a super popular low carb rice replacement and it has taken the world in storm over the past few years. Full disclosure though, I did NOT like it at all atContinue reading “Cauliflower Rice with Mushrooms and Spinach”

Jalapeno Cheddar Salmon Burgers

This burger was definitely the STAR on this week’s menu! I have been dying to try a recipe from one of my favorite online cooking personalities @Fitmencook and I am happy I finally got around to it. This guy knows how to properly season his dinners! Fresh salmon, combined with creamy cheddar cheese, smoked paprikaContinue reading “Jalapeno Cheddar Salmon Burgers”

Bacon, Sausage, and Brussel Sprouts

Note: There are a lot of different smoked sausages out there. I have seen sausages with as much as 7 grams carbs per sausage. The sausages I used have 1.6 g of carbs. Just know that the stats I posted below will be accurate when your sausage is low in carbs. The tip is toContinue reading “Bacon, Sausage, and Brussel Sprouts”

Fresh Raspberry Muffins

My kids love raspberries so I have them always on hand, but I also struggle with keeping them fresh. Now, you would say, why don’t you just buy less then? You see, on weeks where I don’t buy enough, they want extra, and on weeks I buy a lot, they forget about them. I don’tContinue reading “Fresh Raspberry Muffins”
