Instant Pot Cilantro Lime Rice

December 17, 2019 By Lane Leave a Comment

My daughter (who used to be the pickiest eater of all times) has discovered the beauty of Chipotle. Which means we often make and eat burrito bowls, as they are so, so easy to make at home. Especially if you have the “right” rice-like this Instant Pot Cilantro Lime Rice. Quick, easy, and hands off, perfect for any weeknight. Try it yourself!

Lemon Roasted Shrimp with Broccoli and Rice: A Sheet Pan Dinner

February 27, 2018 By Holly 20 Comments

If you’ve been reading the blog for awhile, you may know that I’m a really big fan of one-pot and sheet pan style dinners. Like so many busy parents, I rely on a well tested rotation of weeknight dinner recipes to get through those busy weeks. My personal collection of go to recipes seems to have a common theme: they are all easy to prepare, don’t need fancy ingredients, and don’t make a huge mess (because, let’s face it, dishes are the least fun part of cooking!). Recently, I’ve been looking to add some new dishes to our rotation and with winter seemingly never ending around here, I wanted to get some more bright flavors onto our plates. This week’s recipe for Lemon Roasted Shrimp with Broccoli and Rice does all of that and more. I think you’ll love it!

Instant Pot Korean Inspired Pulled Pork

Instant Pot Korean Inspired Pulled Pork

I know you’ve already heard about my great love affair with the Instant Pot.  I’ve gone and on about the magic of this kitchen appliance and as summer is coming I’m even more excited to have a great way to cook without having to turn the oven on and heat up my house.  But so many people are asking me-what are you actually making in it?  Certainly a good (and easy) way to start is my Instant Pot Chipotle Black Bean Soup (it’s even vegan), but if that isn’t your jam-then may I recommend what we’ve been eating on repeat?  Instant Pot Korean Inspired Pulled Pork. (I DID include instructions to make this in the Slow Cooker/Crock Pot as well-just scroll all the way to the bottom.)…

Good (Food) Reads

August 3, 2016 By Holly 1 Comment

Good Food ReadsIt’s Good (Food) Reads time again and I’m back from vacation and excited to share some great food inspiration with you all! After being away on vacation and not cooking for a while, I’m am ready to head back into my kitchen and try some new things. We love finding and sharing new recipes and videos with you, so if you have something you love and want us to share, be sure to send it our way! Oh, and one more thing – Lane forgot to mention that Monday’s post was our 100th! I can hardly believe we’ve already hit a fun little milestone. Thanks for following along. We can’t wait to see what the next 100 bring.

Ok, here we go…

BLT Balsamic Chicken Avocado and Feta Salad (Cafe Delites) is pretty much the salad of my summer dreams. Does anyone else feel the need to detox with nothing but salads after a vacation? I just want to eat allllllll the greens. The avocado and feta doesn’t hurt one bit, though!

Summer Squash Pizza (Smitten Kitchen) makes me feel all virtuous about pizza. And using summer’s bounty of zucchini and squash. Plus, it’s Smitten Kitchen, which is pretty much a guaranteed winner in my experience.

I think this may blur the line with the whole salad thing but I don’t really care. I’m saving this one for a night when my hubby is gone as he hates nectarines (sad but true). Still, I’m really excited to try this Nectarine Panzanella with Homemade Garlic Croutons (My Kitchen Love)

Super Healthy Broccoli Salad (The Fed Up Foodie). Like I said, I can’t get enough of the salads right now!

Cheesy Jalapeno Bacon Meatballs (Hey Grill, Hey) because I can’t always be virtuous. Plus, my little guy loves meatballs and this sounds like a fun take on a classic.

Frozen Peach Lemonade (As Easy As Apple Pie). Without vodka for now. With vodka later. YES.

Healthy Hawaiian Chicken Noodle Bowls (Fit Foodie Finds). My husband and I just returned from Hawaii and I can’t wait to make these noodle bowls from MN fave Fit Foodie Finds.

Challah Donuts (Molly Yeh). Because seriously, CHALLAH DONUTS. I can’t even. Someone please make these for me? Pretty please?

Blueberry Caprese Salad (Floating Kitchen). Love this take on a caprese. I’m still devouring blueberries like there’s no tomorrow and this will be a fun twist on a classic summer salad.

Brown Rice Pilaf for Instant Pot (Mel’s Kitchen Cafe). Do you have an InstantPot? I am trying to find more and more recipes to take advantage of the crazy time savings with pressure cooking. This brown rice pilaf seems like a great place to start.

Asian Turkey Burgers (Andie Mitchell). I am on a quest to find a flavor filled turkey burger that doesn’t dry out and definitely doesn’t serve as a meager substitute for a traditional burger and I have high hopes for this one.

As usual, send us a message via email, FB, Twitter, or Instagram and let us know if you try and of this week’s Good (Food) Reads! Until next time…
