Yesterday seemed like a great day to try something new in my crockpot. I scoured Pinterest for some inspiration and found this yummy recipe. It was SUPER EASY to make and one I will definitely add to my rotation! I made two changes to the original recipe; I substituted low-sodium soy sauce and used apple…

Tracy’s Red Wine Chili
A bowl of spicy yum! This week’s cooler weather has left me yearning for all things warm!! I’ve always wanted to make a batch of my friend Tracy’s red wine chili and today seemed like the perfect day to give it a go. Boy am I glad I did…it’s amazing!!! The ingredients are simple and…
Chicken Parmigiana
Last weekend was a typical PNW fall day; cool and damp. I wanted to make something for dinner that was warm and had a bit of a wild hair to try something new. I took an inventory of my pantry, freezer and fridge. I found some chicken breasts in the freezer and remembered seeing a…
Korean Beef
As fall has hit the PNW I’m craving simple but warm meals. I had saved this recipe on Pinterest a while back but had yet to try it. So glad I remembered it because it’s a winner winner but not a chicken dinner! The recipe says to cook the chuck roast cubes for 3-4 hours…
Chicken Noodle Soup
Nothing says comfort food like a bowl of hot homemade Chicken Noodle Soup! I’ve been battling an epic round of flu this week and after not eating much for several days I rounded up the energy to hit up the grocery store to buy ingredients for this yummy version of a classic soup. I like…
Pork Chops and Apples

New England Clam Chowder
I’ve tried a bunch of chowder recipes and haven’t found one I liked…until now! Found this via Baked by Rachel. I’ve had great luck with almost anything I’ve tried from her blog…so I shouldn’t be surprised that I liked this one so much. The only additional ingredient I added was a chopped carrot to the…
Beef Stroganoff Soup
Made this yummy soup last night. If you like beef stroganoff…you’ll love this!! I substituted baby bellas because my local grocery didn’t have a great selection of fresh mushrooms. I love baby bellas and I probably will use them in the future as well :). I also substitute onion powder (1T for the onion). I’ll…
