Chicken for dinner again? We’ve all been there. The family meal is a constant challenge, and one that many of us are responsible for every single day. And chicken recipes? Well, they can get a little stale if you don’t shake it up every now and then. I mean, you can only serve nuggets so…

Honey Pecan Alaska Salmon Sheet Pan
This Salmon Recipe was sponsored by Alaska Seafood as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central and all opinions expressed in my post are my own. You’re busy. I’m busy. We’re all so darned busy all the time, but we still need to eat. Convenience foods are not where it’s at, in my opinion,…
Dill Cheese Puffs – Tomato Soup’s New BFF
‘Tis the season for entertaining, but it’s also the season to curl up with a warm bowl of soup. In our house, that usually means tomato soup and a kid-friendly grilled cheese. This season, however, we’re taking that crispy, cheesy flavor combo up a notch with a little help from Stella® Cheeses. Their old world…
Mashed Potato Recipe: Pierogi Stromboli
Let’s talk about comfort food. Seems to be the right time of year, don’t you think? Stuffing, pie, mashed potatoes…and all those glorious leftovers. Are you guilty of making extra just to make sure you’ll have mashed potatoes for a week? And maybe enough to make even more comfort food, like the Pierogi Stromboli I’m…
Mini Cipollini Onion Tarts with Gruyere and Apple Butter
My son turned 8 the day before yesterday, and I can’t help but reminisce a bit about those early days. Before I had two children. Before I went back to work. When the lens I used to view the whole world had shifted and changed, and I was blissfully immersed in it all, yet shaky…
Maple Cinnamon Drop Biscuit Chicken Sliders
This drop biscuit recipe was written by me on behalf of Tyson Foods, Inc. All opinions are entirely my own. Hey, it’s Tyson® crispy chicken strips! Wait, what? Chicken from the freezer aisle at Target? Yup, I buy it. Life is busy, friends. Like, 15-minutes-between-getting-home-and-leaving-for-soccer busy. And have you ever really thought about how chicken…
Buttery Mushroom and Sage Linguine
I participated in Mom Blog Tour Summer Fancy Food Show on behalf of Wendy’s Bloggers. I received Academia Barilla products to facilitate my review and Mushroom and Sage Linguine Recipe, but my opinions and the recipe are my own. Pasta. It’s a complicated love affair, isn’t it? As an Italian girl, I grew up adoring pasta,…
Sweet Sesame and Soba Noodle Salad
This is a sponsored post for SheSpeaks/Rubbermaid. Guys. I have news. Our asparagus is up, and it made it to the plate! That may not seem like a big deal, but I’ve been really struggling to keep up lately, and my fresh fruits and veggies are paying the price. Actually, I’ve been paying a pretty big…
20 Different and Delicious Zoodle Recipes
First and foremost, as an Italian girl, I’m not here to tell you that spiralized zucchini noodle (or Zoodles) could ever replace pasta. A ribbon of zucchini is never going to take the place in my heart that’s set aside for soul-fulfilling foods like spaghetti, linquini or fettucine. Now, with that said, there is most definitely…
Potluck Winner: Fruit and Walnut Chicken Salad Sliders
Chicken salad is a never-fail meal in our house. My kids and husband love it, and over the years, I’ve come up with more than a few ways to incorporate lots of fruits, veggies and even nuts into it. Whether we’re in need of a potluck recipe, party dish, or even weekday lunches, a quick…
