Look at that color! These veggies are the beginning of our chicken cheesesteaks paying homage to one of our favorite lunch joints in Houston— Texadelphia. We spent many afternoons hanging out in the Village eating Texas-style cheesesteaks. Dustin is minorly obsessed with the unique mustard sauce Texadelphia serves on the side, so we were super...

I know it hasn't been that long since I've made chicken pot pies, and I've made a vow to not repeat recipes. But I promise this is not a repeat. These chicken pot pie muffins (the original post refers to them as cupcakes, but that sounds too dessert-y to me) are quite different. They looked so darn adorable in the pictures, I had to make them...

Orange chicken is another of my favorite Chinese foods. I love the complex combination of citrus, sweet, and spicy. I hate the fried aspect of the dish and not knowing exactly how many calories those Chinese restaurants put in that orange sauce. The best way to remedy these problems? Make it at home, healthified. First we decided to bake the...

Before Dustin and I really started experimenting with our food, we made the same six or seven dishes over and over again. Pretty much every week we made some sort of chicken taco dish, one of our favorites. One version was a sour cream chicken taco where we'd finish cooking the chunks of chicken in some sour cream. It had been way too long since...

This is how you do baked chicken. All of the yummy, creamy stuffing keeps the chicken super moist, juicy, and downright heavenly. You'll actually forget you are eating boneless, skinless chicken breasts. This dish was so easy. We cooked up sliced onion and minced garlic in olive oil until fragrant. Then we added some fresh spinach and sauteed...

After achieving success with dumping ingredients into my crockpot last November to create a delicious chili, I decided I'd give making chili one more shot before the weather gets too warm. Since it is closing in upon spring, I wanted to do a light chili with chicken and white beans. I grilled up one large chicken breast (seasoned with salt...

Lately I've been seeing advertisements for Subway's Chicken Pizzaioli Sandwich, one of their March featured sandwiches. Basically, it's a sandwich with slices of chicken breast, pepperoni, marinara sauce, and cheese. The flavor combinations sounded really good to me, but I thought Dustin and I could make this sandwich a lot better than Subway...

Made right in the crockpot, all you have to do for barbecue beer chicken is take a large, boneless, skinless chicken breast (about 1 pound), cover it in a thin layer of Worcestershire sauce and a bottle of your favorite beer, dump in your favorite spices, and wait while the crockpot does it's magic. We used garlic powder, onion powder, smoked...

We love watching Big Bang Theory together, and we love the idea of getting takeout Chinese food and having a fun night in as they so often do on the show. Unfortunately getting takeout Chinese is not particularly healthy, especially my favorite dish— sweet and sour chicken. I just love that sauce. I could dip anything in that. And unfortunately...

We finally used the wild rice from Minnesota that Dustin's mom brought for us at Thanksgiving. The back of the bag had a recipe for wild rice soup using ham that I decided to modify and use chicken instead. Wild rice looks so much more exciting than plain white or brown rice cooked Here is the rich and creamy soup we made— a much better...
