Chicken Fajita Pasta
Chicken Fajita Pasta is a yummy one-pot recipe you will be sure to enjoy! It’s creamy and packed with peppers, onions, and tender chicken in each bite. The main selling point for me on this recipe is that you cook the entire meal in one-pot which means less dishes and easier clean up. The recipe can be found here. Start by slicing the chicken, onion, and bell peppers, and mince the garlic. Heat oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. You want the skillet to be large enough to cook all the ingredients so make sure you are using a large enough vessel. Add the chicken and cook for 3-4 minutes. Then, add ½ of the fajita seasoning and stir to coat. Continue to cook for another 3-4 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. It will absorb the fajita flavor and be perfectly seasoned. Remove the chicken from the pan and set … Continue reading

Vegan Beyond Meat Unstuffed Pepper Bowls
Vegan Beyond Meat Unstuffed Pepper Bowls is an easy to make, comfort food type meal, that is 100% vegan. It’s bright, colorful, and has all the flavors you love from a classic stuffed pepper recipe. For those of you who aren’t vegan, or aren’t familiar with Beyond Meat, it’s a 100% plant-based protein. I personally think it’s delicious and substitute it in a lot of dishes. In its raw form, it has the texture of ground beef. In its cooked form, it has a similar texture to ground meat, has a slightly nutty flavor, and is juicy (not like other vegetarian or vegan meats that are bland and dry). It’s hard to describe but it has good flavor. You can add beans, corn, lentils, rice, mushrooms – anything you like to these unstuffed pepper bowls. They are completely customizable but if you prefer to follow a recipe, it can be found here. Start by cooking the rice … Continue reading

Baked Feta & Vegetable Pasta
Not too long ago, I hopped on the TikTok trend where you bake a block of feta cheese with cherry tomatoes and when done, toss it with cooked noodles for a light and refreshing pasta. It was a HUGE hit in our house so I figured I would try it again but with a few changes. The original recipe is for Baked Feta and Tomato Pasta but the recipe I’m going to share with you today is for Baked Feta and Vegetable Pasta. The recipe can be found here. Start by preheating the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the feat in the center of the baking sheet. This recipe calls for a block of feta but if it’s OK to use crumbled if that’s the only available option at the grocery store. Just pile it high and try to keep it as … Continue reading

Greek Orzo Stuffed Peppers
Stuffed Peppers are a favorite at my house. There are so many possibilities for stuffed peppers so you can really cater the filling to meet any dietary need. Our recent craving has been for Greek Orzo Stuffed Peppers. They are quick to make, fairly simple to assemble, vegetarian / vegan, healthy, and tasty 🙂 You can make this dish more colorful by using a combination of green, orange, red, or yellow bell peppers. I’m partial to red bell peppers for no particular reason so that is what I choose to use. I typically serve these as a main dish, but they could easily be a side dish if served with other items. Look for medium to large bell peppers because they are easier to stuff and hold more ingredients. The recipe can be found here. Start by preheating the oven to 400 degrees. Cut each bell pepper in half, length … Continue reading

Lemon Orzo with Roasted Vegetables
Lemon Orzo with Roasted Vegetables is not your typical pasta salad. It’s packed with texture and flavor yet is very light and refreshing. It works well as a side dish or as a standalone meal. I think it’s best served warm but room temp or chilled is also fine, it’s all about your preference. The vegetables are delicious when roasted because they are slightly caramelized. I like to use bell pepper, asparagus, cherry tomatoes, and red onion but you can substitute any veggies you like – eggplant, zucchini, squash, mushrooms, etc. You can really make this your own by using the veggies you crave. You can also top this salad with pine nuts for a little crunch or some crumbled feta cheese. If you choose to skip the cheese, this is a great vegan based dish. Start by preheating the oven to 425 degrees and lining a baking sheet (or … Continue reading
