This post is sponsored by FAGE! As always, all thoughts andopinions are my own. Most people, myself included, get a little intimidated whenever they read the word “French” in a recipe. But no need for that anxiety here! Save it for a few weeks from now, when we (hopefully!) learn to make croissants. This yogurt cake – or Gâteau au Yaourt, in French – is a walk in the park!...

FavoritePinShare Fresh fruit, quinoa, and a tangy citrus dressing = pure bliss in a bowl. And the perfect way to keep on track with healthy eating and ENJOY it! I love a good fruit salad, but adding a dressing and quinoa to a fruit salad has quickly become a new staple in my home. The quinoa adds tons of protein leaving this salad surprisingly filling. While it probably won’t stand on it’s own for a meal, serving it with some grilled chicken or steak is honestly one of the best meals ever — fresh, light, healthy, and packed with flavor!...

General Tso chicken is a popular Chinese-American dish. It was invented in America (not China) and consists of pieces of deep fry chicken that are battered, fried, and tossed in a thick, sticky, spicy sauce, served over steamed rice. Whenever Ben picked up crispy General Tso chicken (usually an indicator he’d had a rough day at the office), I was always tempted by its smell, but I never could get past how greasy the chicken was or the cloying amount of excess sugar made my stomach feel icky 10 minutes later....
After publishing my Summer Bucket List on Tuesday, I had a small panic attack that we are halfway through June and I hadn’t checked off a single thing on it. My theory that putting our hopes and goals into the universe is proving true because instead of spending my time on responsible things like work or cooking myself a proper breakfast, I’ve been scanning state park websites for campsite availability, calling locals farms to see when strawberries will be available for picking, and ordering straw hats....

There are many chicken thigh recipes out there but none are like this honey mustard chicken thigh recipe. There is a perfect balance between the tartness of red wine vinegar and the sweetness of honey. The spicy brown mustard, instead of the usual Dijon or yellow mustard, adds a nice hint of spiciness without introducing a strong mustard flavor. Fresh garlic, once cooked, adds rich deep savory flavor to the dish....

My method for cooking miracle rice is similar to my secret to perfect shirataki noodles… and it ensures that you have nice and chewy rice, that’s close to real rice. Cauliflower rice is the most popular keto rice replacement that I make all the time (so good in cauliflower chicken fried rice), but shirataki rice is a great alternative when you get tired of that....
An Incredible Hulk, also known as Green Eyed Monster, Shrock, or Hip and Hen is an eye-catching green-colored cocktail typically made by mixing equal parts (2 fl oz each) of the fruit liqueur Hpnotiq and Hennessy brand cognac and served with ice. Because of its color, not surprisingly, it was named after the green comic book superhero, the Hulk. Hpnotiq is blue, sweet and fruity, which naturally attracted far more female than male drinkers....
I used to find food made in Instant Pot bland and having a poor texture. That was primarily because in all of my recipes I would add water or some sort of thin liquid, as was instructed in the recipes that I followed. That was a mistake. Surely, you can thicken the liquids after cooking but all that extra stirring just messes up the delicately textured, softened up vegetables....

These grilled chicken wings is probably the only food over which we fight in our family. I kid you not. They are irresistible. Any leftovers are closely watched by every family member. They are pre-divided and claimed. An uneven number of leftover wings results in passionate disputes over who gets to get an extra wing. I am telling you, these grilled chicken wings are the best, you won’t need another grilled wing recipe....
