Ghormeh Sabzi literally means "herb stew" in Persian. It is a dark green stew made with kidney beans, onions, lamb or beef, and herbs (usually parsley, leeks, fenugreek, and cilantro - but different variations exist) and served over tahdig, this amazingly crunchy rice crust that I will go into more detail on in a bit.
Read MoreI've gotten into a slight obsession with my brand new muffin tin. Its glass. Its decorative. Its small. Its Pioneer Woman. I also have a slight obsession with Pioneer Woman. If you haven't seen her products, please get to Walmart and check them out.
Read MoreOHHHH Mother's Day - I truly feel like Mother's Day is my second birthday because my husband goes all out for it - and even though my babies are too young to know what Mother's Day is, they still make it so special.
Read MoreI haven't talked about it much here but for the past year I have been on a weight loss journey. I gained a lot of weight when I was pregnant with my daughter (who is now a year old) and soon after she was born I began using the Slow Carb Diet to lose the extra pounds.
Read MoreFor the past several years, I have participated in Lent. I did not grow up doing Lent. I grew up in a southern baptist church and had never even really heard of Lent until I was in college. My best friend in college was/is catholic and I became very fascinated when she would give up chips or sodas each year and decided I wanted to do it too. Still, my family doesn't observe it but it has something I have grown to love doing each year.
Read MoreI decided to give homemade taco seasoning a try because store bought taco seasoning has a few added ingredients that I'm not too crazy about plus I didn't have any :D
But now that I've made this, I will always use homemade seasoning. It tastes so much better and my husband definitely noticed the difference and loved it. Here is the recipe, I use this amount with about a pound and a half of ground beef and I also add about a half a cup of water after I drain off the fat!
Read MoreThe taco shell is made from 2 slices of provolone cheese. It is DELICIOUS and tbh, I can eat like 5 (or 10) regular tacos and just two of these provolone taco shells fill me up. They are super easy to make.
Read MoreSome people dream of their wedding day. Some people imagine their dream home, or their dream car. Some plan their dream vacations. For as long as I can remember, I've been imagining my dream kitchen. One of the key appliances in my kitchen is my KitchenAid Mixer.
Read MoreThis is the best twice baked potato recipe I've ever tried and coincidentally, the only potato recipe of my sister-in-law's that I've ever tried. I hope you enjoy it and maybe I'll start to be known for my potatoes!
Read MoreWhen I say these treats are simple I am not exaggerating. These ideas are so very easy but my almost 2-year old son thought they were just the best and didn't even mind that some of them were good for him.
Read MoreThis is my favorite soup.
I've been craving it all summer but its truly just been too hot to make soup. BUT NOW IT'S FALL!! So I've already made this soup once last week and I'm making it again this week. It is fantastic. My body needs it. Even my toddler loves it. When we're eating it he runs up saying "beans! beans! beans!", which is funny because he doesn't even eat regular beans. Here's the recipe! I hope you love it as much as we do!
Read MoreI grew up being a pretty picky eater and honestly that stayed with me well into adulthood. I've always said that I would make sure my kids weren't picky eaters at all. So far that isn't really working out for us.
Read MoreI've seriously been in a cooking rut this past month or so. Maybe it's because my stove top is about to bite the dust and I've been mostly using my electric griddle. Or maybe it's because its 110 degrees outside and about 90 degrees inside my kitchen when I'm cooking.
Read MoreSo maybe you've heard of this semi-new trend... bulletproof coffee. I know it's not like brand new but I have basically been off of coffee for the past 2.5 years because I've been pregnant for the majority of that time.
Read MoreThis is one of my favorite desserts from childhood. Once a month and for special occasions, the church I grew up in would have a potluck lunch or dinner... "fellowship supper" is what we called it and that title always has creeped me out a bit. Anyway, someone always brought this dessert. I never knew who but later learned that it was a sweet woman named Eunice. I would always get a plate just for dessert and basically fill it up with this amazing treat.
Read MoreBefore Saturday, I had never made or really even eaten buffalo chicken dip, but I wanted to give it a try so I made it to take to a Christmas party we were going to. One reason I tend to stay away from this dip is because a lot of the recipes call for canned chicken. I'm not a super picky person, but I don't eat canned meat. So I made this recipe with real chicken breasts in the crock pot and it turned out sooo delicious!
Read MoreI probably made this recipe a dozen times over the holidays because it is FANTASTIC and so very easy! It can be thrown together in less than 5 minutes and then only needs an hour (or less!) to set in the fridge!
Read MoreIf I told you all of the benefits of smoothies I would have to write a book. A long book. Incorporating at least one smoothie into your day can completely revamp your health, especially if you’re adding vegetables to your smoothies—plus you’re getting your daily servings of fruits and vegetables without having to do any cooking or chewing!
