Chicken soup is such a versatile recipe that can be adapted so many ways, and it is so satisfying to eat. I love making and serving soup because it often is fairly healthy and gets a serving or two of veggies in as well. This recipe is similar to my regular chicken soup recipe, butContinueContinue reading “Cheesy Chicken Noodle Soup”

Bigos (Polish Hunter’s Stew)

Polish food is another of my family’s favorite cuisines to eat. This past summer when we were on vacation in the mountains, we ate 2 days a row at this amazing little restaurant run by old Polish ladies because it was so good. My family has quite a bit of Polish background, so I likeContinueContinue reading “Bigos (Polish Hunter’s Stew)”

Crab Cakes with Homemade Japanese Curry Sauce

This crab cake with Japanese curry sauce recipe is one of those that I can’t wait to make again and will definitely end up in my repeat dinner rotation. These crab cakes are a bit different than the typical crab cake recipe. The base is made from potato, so it is more like a croquetteContinueContinue reading “Crab Cakes with Homemade Japanese Curry Sauce”

Vietnamese Chicken Salad Noodle Bowl

This Vietnamese chicken salad noodle bowl is pretty much my favorite kind of dinner to make. It is light and healthy, but it is anything but boring with lots of fresh herbs, veggies and nước chấm lime sauce for the dressing. If you have not had nước chấm, it is a sweet and sour sauceContinueContinue reading “Vietnamese Chicken Salad Noodle Bowl”

Kimchi Grilled Cheese

Korean food doesn’t traditionally contain much cheese, however in recent years a lot of Korean street food has started incorporating it and it turns out cheese and kimchi is an amazing combination. I love the way the spicy and tangy flavor of the kimchi cuts through some of the richness of the cheese. You canContinueContinue reading “Kimchi Grilled Cheese”

Scallion Chicken

Stir fry meals are one of my favorite go to weeknight dinner ideas, because they are usually very quick to put together and tend to be fairly healthy.

Southwest Chicken Wraps

These southwest chicken wraps are amazing for a few reasons – tender chicken, creamy avocado, cheese, crunchy chips and a really delicious southwest dressing. I used chicken tenders here because they are good size to fit in a wrap, and you can get a good spice rub to chicken ratio. I coated these the dayContinueContinue reading “Southwest Chicken Wraps”

Golden Egg Curry

I’m always looking for new egg recipes since we have so many eggs from our chickens. I love the tomato/egg combo which shows up in many different cuisines in different forms. This recipe is really simple, but it has a ton of flavor from the garlic, jalapenos, shallots, fish sauce and curry powder. I useContinueContinue reading “Golden Egg Curry”

Curry Chickpea Salad Wraps

This recipe is a version of curry chicken salad, but vegetarian. Chickpeas are so versatile and hearty and they are a great substitute for meat in vegetarian dishes. This curry chickpea salad tastes just like curry chicken salad, just without the chicken. I loved the use of apple and celery for some sweetness and crunchContinueContinue reading “Curry Chickpea Salad Wraps”

Braised Glass Noodles with Roasted Pork and Napa Cabbage

I could probably eat this roasted pork and napa cabbage with braised glass noodles for dinner for a week straight. I love pretty much everything about this recipe. I’m addicted to these noodles, because they have such a fantastic chewy texture and they absorb a little of whatever sauce you are using. The internet classContinueContinue reading “Braised Glass Noodles with Roasted Pork and Napa Cabbage”
