Valentine’s Day is just under a week away. If you’re like most of us you’re trying to figure out what to do. Especially this year since inside dining is not recommended in most states.

This means outdoor dining isn’t an option for the majority of us, including those of us in the “warmer” climate. I decided to put together this recipe roundup for a suggested at home Valentine’s Day celebration. This homemade 4 course Valentine’s Day meal gives you the restaurant feel in your own home.

Brown Sugar Baked Chicken Wings

January 8, 2021 Leave a Comment

Happy first new recipe of 2021 everyone! The new year brings new goals for most people. One of the most common goals people share is eating better or losing weight. Although this Brown Sugar Baked Chicken Wings recipe isn’t considered “healthy”, it is an alternative to the usual fried option. I know this is an unpopular opinion but I prefer my wings baked or grilled. There’s just something about a good marinade on a baked/grilled wing that can’t be accomplished with frying.

5 Winter Comfort Food Dishes

December 29, 2020 Leave a Comment

The new year is around the corner and everyone is going to be sharing advice for 2021. Well, my unsolicited advice is to get comfortable being inside for a few more months by finding joy in the small things; like dinner time. If you’re going to be stuck inside your home, your stomach should at least be full and happy, right? If there’s one thing 2020 has taught us it’s that life is short so enjoy the little things in life. Food on the table and a roof to cook it under is a great place to start. This round up of my favorite 5 Winter Comfort Food Dishes is perfect for the cold weather and to switch up the usual dinner ideas you’ve been making since March.
