Pico de Gallo
Fresh tomatoes, a little heat, and plenty of lime. This is the pico I made to go with my Meximelts. And yes, I used dried cilantro because that’s what I had!
-
-
Mashed Cauliflower
Creamy, buttery mashed cauliflower with chives and bacon. I like mine with a little texture, but you can make it as smooth as you want.
-
Chicken Vegetable Alfredo Soup
A creamy, comforting soup with tender chicken and plenty of vegetables. I like to cook my chicken first in the Multi Cooker so I can use the homemade stock in the soup, too. Why waste good flavor?
-
Savory Ham & Cheese Scones
Buttery, cheesy, and packed with ham—these savory scones work just as well for breakfast as they do alongside a bowl of soup. I swapped fresh chives for freeze-dried, because sometimes the pantry wins.
-
Bacon Onion Jam
Sweet, savory, smoky, and ridiculously good on burgers, sandwiches, and just about anything that needs a little extra something.
-
Skillet Lasagna
All the comfort of lasagna, minus the layering marathon. Everything comes together on the stovetop, which is my kind of dinner.
-
Salmon Fried Rice with Carrots & Cabbage
No carrots? Nope. Green onions? Didn’t have those either. Forgot the eggs? Sure did. 😂 But dinner was delicious anyway!
-
Cool Veggie Pizza
Cool Veggie Pizza has a special place in my heart. It’s the very first recipe I ever made at a Pampered Chef party! All these years later, it’s still a favorite. A flaky crescent-roll crust, creamy spread, and crunchy fresh veggies. Some recipes just don’t need fixing!
-
Divorce Salad
With a name like Divorce Salad, you know I had to try it! Marinated white beans, crunchy romaine, Parmesan, and crispy onions come together in a salad that’s hearty enough to be dinner. No divorce required.
-
Ham & Cheese Omelet Roll
A fluffy baked omelet filled with ham, cheese, and green onions, then rolled up for a breakfast that looks a lot harder than it is.
-
Baked Brie with Apples & Cranberries
Warm Brie layered with apples, almonds, dried cranberries, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Simple, pretty, and very little fuss.
