Hello, tasty food. Yes sometimes I talk to my food. 😉 I like to make a lot of homemade recipes. (Uhm, hello, food blogger.) However, I’m not compelled to make a homemade BBQ sauce when I’ve found a great brand that does all the work for me. Now if you want to make your own BBQ sauce, kudos for you and this recipe will still work for you. BBQ sauce + chicken thighs = good eats. It’s really that simple. It’s a delicious crowd pleaser so if you’re looking for an easy dinner to pull together for some picky eaters, …

Fresh Corn Salad
Everyone needs an easy side dish recipe. The other day I noticed a small wasp nest starting to form over the garage door. I told my husband about it and he said that he’d take care of it once it got dark out. Okay. I thought about it, then I thought about it some more, and wait for it, I thought about it again. In other words, I worried about it throughout whole the day. Why? I have no idea. Once evening came, my husband took care of it, spending probably about 30 seconds on it. I, on the other …
Strawberry Cheesecake Pretzel Tart
If you make one dessert this summer, it should be this strawberry cheesecake pretzel tart. My husband and I are fully vaccinated now so we are finally able to see family! That means we were able to enjoy our annual ribfest at my mother-in-law’s for Memorial Day. Mmmm ribs. Sorry, I digress. I asked my husband what dessert we should bring and he found this recipe. Well, he found a winner. The crust is made out of pretzels. Isn’t that genius? I’ve never heard of such a thing. The filling is a no bake cheesecake or cream pie filling. My …
Greek Chicken and Rice
Happy Friday! I found a new chicken recipe that I simply had to share with you. You marinate chicken breasts in a lovely lemon and herby vinaigrette for 30 minutes and then you cook them in a skillet on the stove top. It’s mad easy and delicious. I think marinating is the key because it makes the chicken taste good (and not so chicken-y). (If you know, you know.) The chicken is served with rice and a fresh tomato, cucumber, bell pepper salad, feta cheese, and Kalamata olive salad. I think that this is a great recipe to kick off …
Roasted Vegetables Salad with Avocado Dressing
I’ve been craving salads lately. I wonder how long that will last. I love roasted sweet potatoes and vegetables. They are an awesome side dish, but I’m turning them into the star of a salad today. Add the hot the veggies straight from the oven to the lettuce and it wilts it a bit which is absolutely delicious. It doesn’t even feel like I’m eating a salad. You can roast whatever vegetables are in season to make this different and seasonally appropriate. I topped the salad with some shredded Parmesan cheese and homemade avocado dressing. I’m not always in the …
