Who wouldn’t want a 5 minute prep chicken recipe that is finger licking good? Let the marinating do all of the work for you while you do the other awesome things you need to do.

Mexican Grilled Corn is a classic recipe I grew up eating. This version is mayo free, easy to make, and everyone loves a good grilled corn!

So why not throw in a few vegetables and call dinner good? Ok, I admit, we ate a salad with dinner as well. I like salad, in a different way. Easy Chicken and Sweetpotato Enchiladas is a…

Did I tell you that Thanksgiving and the weeks following are my favorite? It’s mostly because of the leftover sandwiches that I eat for days on end. There is something so satisfying about the flavors for me. Along with those sandwiches comes a house full of family that I get to cook for and feed. That is also my favorite part.
