I love Chinese food. It’s definitely my takeout of choice. Luckily for me, the whole family loves it too! I really enjoy making simple Chinese food at home too, because it’s a great way to save a little money and get the best flavors. Some of my favorite homemade recipes are Wonton Soup, this delicious Moo Goo Gai Pan, and this Firecracker Chicken. Soup Dumpling If you have never had a Chinese soup dumpling, you are going to fall in love with this recipe!...

Stuffed Turkey with Butternut and Figs This simple weeknight dish is Whole30 and gluten-free. Figs are seasonal, if you can’t find them you can swap them for pears or apples. Or try this Stuffed Turkey with Cranberries and Pecans. You won’t believe how good this is, the stuffing is out of this world delicious! This is a great weeknight meal or a Thanksgiving dish if you’re keeping it intimate. It’s also healthy and light which leaves room for a slice of pumpkin pie!...

Hi everyone! Sam here from Sugar Spun Run with a buttery, summery treat for you. With the warm weather (finally) here, it’s time to make the best use out of all of those berries that are so abundantly available right now! I made quick work of my own favorite berries by working them into a slightly sweetened, buttery, flaky, scone recipe. Not only are they juicy, ripe, and in their prime right now, they also look light brightly colored gems nestled into these summer berry scones....

I know you’re going to love these Swedish pancakes as much as I do. They’re just so irresistible! If you’re not a fan of lingonberry, try them out with homemade blueberry syrup or strawberry jam! The Best Homemade Swedish Pancakes If you’re looking to elevate your breakfast experience and discover a new favorite morning treat, Swedish pancakes should be at the top of your list. These delectable pancakes offer a delightful twist to traditional breakfast, and are somewhere in between a pancake and a crepe in terms of texture....

Swiss Chard Eggs Benedict To lighten these, I skip the Hollandaise sauce which shaves off hundreds of calories, since the egg yolks are perfectly silky on their own! This is delicious, you won’t miss it! Swiss Chard is a healthy leafy green vegetable in season in the Spring. It’s a great addition to this breakfast but you can also add chard to pasta, soups, salads, and more! How To Make Poached Eggs: Crack eggs into individual small cups or ramekins....

It carries the flavour of an excellent Makhani sauce, with extra tandoori tofu. Indeed, it’s a vegan take on Britain’s favourite curry. In my book, anything served on a stick is a winner. It seals the deal if what’s on the stick is smothered in a charred tandoori paste, restaurant style. Here’s my take on a British-‘Indian’ dish. It’s loaded with homemade tandoori spices, garlic, lemon, ground almonds and coconut cream....

The best part, there’s no pre-cooking! I used canned potatoes, although frozen would work, (of course, you can cook the potatoes if you prefer) and leftovers can be reheated throughout the week. I am excited to partner with Pyrex to share this easy holiday morning breakfast dish, filled with everything I love with my eggs – potatoes, chorizo, green chilies, salsa, avocado and cheese (jalapeños are optional, but so good if you like a little heat)....

Protein is an essential component in every diet because it helps us develop strong bodies and healthy organs.

This thorough guide will help if you’re looking for more ways to add plant-based protein to your diet. In it, you’ll find the best vegan protein sources, as well as the importance of protein and a list of high-protein vegan recipes to try....

After researching the best bakeware sets, including the best ceramic, non-stick, silicone, and even a super-cute kit for kids to tinker in the kitchen with, I put together this list of my favorites. I’m also a big fan of supporting small businesses, so I included some of those options for you, too! Two of these products, the Staub Baking Dish Set and the Nordic Ware baking sheets are in my kitchen and I use them on nearly a daily basis....

Brownies are hands down one of the best treats, they are rich, luscious and perfectly proportioned. You have to try these other tried and true favorites like this Red Velvet, Oreo or Cream Cheese Brownies! Caramel Brownie Recipe The first time I made these caramel brownies they were gone in 2 minutes flat! It might have helped that I was feeding a bunch of boys, but still! These are just so good!...

Everyone needs a good board for charcuterie that they can use again and again. I’m a huge fan of this wooden charcuterie board from Crate & Barrel because it has managed to outlast typical wear and tear, but there are TONS of different types out there in unique shapes and designs made from materials like marble, slate, bamboo, and many other types of wood. When narrowing down my list of the best boards for holiday arrangements, veggie and fruit platters, sweet treats, themed boards, and more, I made sure to include different styles so everyone could find something they love!...

This recipe will take your take out game to a whole new level of yumminess. Pair with Wontons, Egg Rolls and Rice for a restaurant worthy night! Skillet Sweet and Sour Pork Recipe Hands down, this is one of my family’s favorite Chinese meals to make at home. It is the most perfect combination of sweet and sour. By using two different vinegars instead of just one you get a complex flavor that combines with the sweet of the sugar and ketchup that is divine....

Hey Recipe Critic readers! Chelsea from Chelsea’s Messy Apron back with another delicious recipe 🙂 Nothing cools me down in the summer like a big slush or bowl of ice cream. These slushes are SO easy to make and are definitely the way to cool down after a hot day. They can be made in your blender and don’t require any fancy ice slush machines to make! You can use whatever frozen fruit you like for these....

Turkey Chili Stuffed Acorn Squash These turned out better than I could have expected! The turkey chili is mild and savory, which is the perfect balance to the slightly sweet acorn squash (would be great with delicata too!). If you want to make this dairy-free and Whole30 friendly, simply omit the cheese. I had this for dinner last night and I loved every bite of this. It was filling and so good I am excited to have leftovers for lunch today....

When I think of bundt cake, I inevitably think of the 90s classic movie My Big Fat Greek Wedding. At the time, I knew what a bundt cake was, but I kind of thought, Mama Portokalos is right! This is just a cake with a hole in the middle. Give me back the hole! But then I made a bundt cake and I was like hey, the WASP parents from the movie weren’t wrong…bundt cake can be really dang delicious!...

How to freestyle this Vegan Broth with Tofu Skin & Noodles The process is usually the same for my broth recipes. The ingredients just differ depending on the ingredients I have to hand. Generally, it goes something like this… I throw a bunch of aromatics like lemongrass, ginger, lime leaves, star anise, spring onion and coriander stems into a giant pot of water. Next, I add soy sauce and all the veggie scraps from the fridge (leftover from the week)....

Zucchini Gnocchi You may be familiar with my cauliflower gnocchi, which inspired this new version. Since zucchini is in season, I played around with this recipe and loved how it turned out. I prefer to cook it in a skillet rather than boiling it, like potato gnocchi, for the best results. For more zucchini recipes, try this amazing Zucchini Lasagna, Zucchini Rollatini or these delicious Taco Stuffed Zucchini Boats. Zucchini Gnocchi Ingredients Zucchini: Grate three pounds of zucchini with the large holes of a box grater....

Nothing completes a Sunday pot roast like a fresh chopped salad and some perfectly soft and buttery rolls! Pot Roast Ingredients I’ve given you three ways to cook the roast but the ingredients are all the same. Exact measurements can be found in the recipe card below. Olive Oil: You can use canola oil, but I like the extra bit of flavor the olive oil adds. Chuck Roast: You’ll need a 3-4 pound roast....
