No-fuss recipes for the everyday home cook
If you’ve got 5 bucks, an electric pressure cooker, and an hour then you can make this recipe TODAY. Onions, garlic, chipotle peppers, chicken broth, rendered chicken fat, some dried beans, and lots of salt = homemade refried beans. This is a mostly hands off recipe that you’ve gotta try!
Meaty chicken thighs tossed in a 2 ingredient sweet and savory sauce then baked to perfection. Dinner never tasted so good! Parsley -that last ingredient- adds that fresh flavor.
This recipe is an easy weeknight dinner that delivers warmly spiced chicken and tender roasted veggies. All in one pan! I love serving this with plenty of greek yogurt or lemon wedges.
Give these vegetarian lentil sloppy joes a try and you’ll see that the true flavor lies in that sweet, tangy, and rich tomato sauce! Lentils are the perfect substitute for ground beef in this recipe and they help fill you up, just like any proper sloppy joe should.
After Halloween, Thanksgiving is my next favorite American holiday. Both of these days encourage socializing without asking guests to spend money on presents. I’m also a sucker for good foods and sweet treats. Green Bean Casserole is quintessentially American and yet it is often neglected. I am hoping this Green Bean Turkey Casserole can take this recipe from the neglected leftover section of your Thanksgiving table to a year-round dinner staple!
I love a good roasted vegetable salad. I am also a fan of damn good salad dressings and this maple mustard dressing is frickin’ TOPS. It is savory, sweet, complex, and stupidly simple to put together! There is no need to have that summertime sadness which has you say goodbye to salads, this recipe lets you have the best of both worlds. Crisp Fall weather and tasty, complex salads!
These black bean burgers are cheap to make, taste damn good, and don’t require any fancy pants ingredients or unwieldy kitchen appliances. You throw all the ingredients in a bowl, mash them to heck and back, and fry ’em (or bake them!). They’re great for last minute dinners or for meal prep.
Korean Turkey Bowls in the hooouse. Super simple, fast, and easy! Only 10 ingredients! It’s perfect with rice, or even just simple lightly sauteed cabbage, or over baked potatoes. All three drizzled with yum yum sauce of course!
6 basic ingredients. A few additional minor ones and you’ve got this delicious chickpea and black bean salad that’ll last you the week and gets better day by day!
This creamy, easy, and cozy Salsa Verde Enchilada Bake is filled with aromatic vegetables, summery zuchinni and corn. It’s topped with just a little cheese to make it gooey and then broiled so those corn tortillas become crispy and crunchy. Bonus points: it’s done in under an hour (mostly hands off!) and only uses one pot.
