There’s nothing like Slow Cooker Chicken and Dumplings to warm you up on a cold winter night! Okay, that gratuitously cozy-sounding first sentence was to coax you into reading the rest of this post after you glanced at the featured image. I’ll be the first to admit that these Chicken and Dumplings pics aren’t the prettiest examples of food photography to ever grace my blog. BUT! I guarantee you that this dish is one of the most delicious,...
For dinner tonight, we're making WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINGS, a.k.a, Firehouse Chicken Wings. Just so you know, I pronounce the aforementioned, drawn-out “Wings" with an exaggerated Southern twang, making the word sound more like -- well, there's no other way to put this: "wangs." Wings are always referred to as "wangs" when I'm talking about them. And, yes, my husband has informed me that I do this a little too loudly in public. Hey, I'm just...

Get ready, Tartlets. I’m serving up the perfect fall meal with my Lemon Herb Chicken. It feels like it’s been awhile since I’ve gone into the kitchen to make a proper meal. It's been a low-key summer, living on lots of quick and delicious salads, grilled burgers, and refreshingly cool drinks. Now that it’s October, I’m craving all things cozy.

As I was making this Greek Chicken Orzo Salad, I realized something: for someone who doesn't really like mint, I sure am making a lot of recipes with mint these days. Mint is just so fresh tasting. It brightens up any savory dish with an unexpected zip, and it imparts a refreshing coolness to sweet desserts. Can you really blame me for over-using it this summer? Nope. I didn't think so. Spoiler alert: this Greek Chicken Orzo Salad contains...
