Chicken breasts are still one of my favourite meals. Yes, I like a good steak, pork chop, or really, any meat, but it is hard to beat a good chicken breast. Chicken breasts are super easy to dry out by overcooking but also a meat …
Once again we have more Autumn deliciousness for you! Something about Autumn just makes us want all the comfort food, all the baking, and all the hot dishes again. This recipe has a comfort feeling to it but is a little healthier than some comfort …
We finally did it. We made famous TikTok feta pasta. In typical Trish fashion, I couldn’t do it exactly as written though and I added a few wonderful additions. This dish was super flavourful, delicious and easy! We will be making it again in our house for sure.
Another thing that was exciting about this recipe is, it was made with my first spinach and some baby kale from my very own garden. You can use either kale or spinach in this recipe or like I did, use both! If you want to make this meatless go ahead and remove the chicken.
Use whatever kind of pasta you choose. I chose to use penne this time and it worked great but a bowtie or spiral would work well too!
Also, feel free to adapt the amount of red pepper flakes to your taste.
Enjoy this recipe and let me know what you think of this baked feta pasta rendition!

The Instant Pot is one of my favourite methods for making one dish meals. I used it from start to finish for this tasty chicken mushroom alfredo. The alfredo has a great flavour from the combination of mushrooms and herbs. This cheesy, creamy mess of …

This Firecracker Chicken is a delicious sweet and spicy dish that could easily pass for takeout. If you aren’t big on spicy, you could use this method of preparing takeout chicken but use an orange, honey garlic, or whatever sauce you choose!
To begin, I cut the chicken breasts into about 1 inch pieces. Next I sprinkled them with salt and pepper. I measured the corn starch and sprinkled it over the chicken, then tossed the chicken so it was well coated.
Next I beat two eggs. I got out my frying pan, put the oil in it, and heated it over high heat. Next I dipped the pieces of chicken in the egg mixture and tossed them into the hot frying pan. I fried them just until they were nicely browned on both sides, barely more then a minute, but that will depend on how hot your pan is. After the chicken is nicely browned, spread into a 9 by 13 inch pan. You may need to do the frying in a few batches. If your pan dries up, add more oil.
Once all the chicken is fried and in the pan, mix the sauce and pour it over the chicken. Stir the chicken so the sauce is nicely spread throughout. Bake in the oven at 350 F for 35 minutes, stirring once in the middle of the cooking time.
Enjoy this with a bed of rice and some steamed vegetables or your choice of sides.

I became a huge fan of chicken lasagna after I came up with this recipe. Not only is it extremely delicious, but it can be put together in a few short minutes anytime of the day and be ready to put in the oven an …
Yum…. Some recipes are good, some are great and this one, we put in our great book! Its simple, delicious, and healthier then pasta. Last time we were up visiting my parents, my husband picked a large squash from my dad’s produce store and brought …
I was beginning to think about Valentine’s Day a few weeks back and realized that it would likely be a different sort of Valentine’s then what we had in the past. Babies change things and with a catnapping four month old, I didn’t see a fancy dinner being made here.
After having a conversation with my husband one day, I learned that he still thinks about a meal he had at a restaurant when we were in Florida a year ago. I decided for my Valentine’s dinner for him, I would try to recreate this memorable meal.
I knew by looking at the ingredients of Jamaican Rice and Peas, that this would likely not be my favourite dish. However, I was excited about the Jerk Chicken and I am sharing that recipe with you here.
To begin, I got out the chicken drumsticks. Chicken drumsticks are a common meal in our house, since they are easy to make many different ways, an economical meat, and also so tasty!
I placed the chicken on a baking sheet with tin foil and patted the drumsticks dry with a paper towel. I then poked the chicken with a fork.
I then mixed the spices and oil and rubbed it on the chicken.
I put my chicken in the preheated oven and baked them for 35-40 minutes. Different ovens have different heats so you can bake accordingly to your oven. Chicken needs to have an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit but for bone on chicken I like to bake it a bit longer so it comes off the bone easily.
The chicken has a nice, slightly sweet and spicy taste. Enjoy with your favourite side dish of rice and/or salad.
