Recipe Below!! 👇 Chicken Scallopini in a Lemon Garlic Cream Sauce w/ Parmesan Zucchini Chips & Roasted Potatoes __ Pounding the chicken thin is both therapeutic and important to get the consistency just right!

Recipe Below!! 👇 Jalapeno Popper Deviled Eggs 👇 __ Oh dear LORD these were good. I was asked to bring deviled eggs to my family's Easter gathering last weekend. While I made some of my usual deviled eggs (which are delicious, but also pretty basic), I decided I was wanting something with a kick as well. I happened to have some jalapenos on hand (as I usually do), so I went down a popper path and adapted these from a recipe on @spicysouthernkitchen ! 🤤😋😍 __ 🧀🥩🥦 Ingredients 🥦🥩🧀 6 slices bacon 2 jalapenos - one minced (with seeds), one sliced thin into 20 pieces 2 tbsp minced garlic 10 eggs 3 oz cream cheese, softened in the microwave 1 tbsp dijon mustard 3 tbsp mayonnaise splash apple cider vinegar 1/4 tsp (or more, depends on how spicy your jalapenos are) cayenne pepper __ ⭕🔪 Instructions 🔪⭕ 💠 Heat oven to 425F & set a pot of water with 1 tsp salt and a generous splash of white vinegar on the stove to boil. 💠 Lay out bacon on a cookie sheet and pop it into the oven for 25 minutes (check it at that time, if it's not looking deep in color, cook 5 more minutes). 💠 When the water is boiling, add eggs gently to the water, set the timer for 11 minutes and prepare a bowl full of ice. After 11 minutes, IMMEDIATELY remove the eggs into the bowl of ice to stop the cooking process. 💠 Heat 1 tbsp bacon grease in a small skillet, saute garlic and chopped jalapeno in the grease for 2 minutes. 💠 Peel the eggs and cut in half, removing yolks into a bowl as you would for regular deviled eggs. 💠 Add the cream cheese, mayo, mustard and cayenne to the yolks. Mash it all up, add the jalapeno and garlic from the skillet. Mix together and taste, if it's dry or needs a bit more tang, add a tiny bit of apple cider vinegar. Spoon (or pipe) yolk mixture back into the whites. 💠 Slice bacon into 1-inch pieces. Garnish each egg with a jalepeno slice and 2 chunks of bacon!

Recipe Below!! 👇 White Bean & Tomato Polenta Bake *VEGAN* 👇 __ #1 has backed off his vegan kick enough that he's occasionally eating cheese now (and farting after, ugh). But I still am looking up and preparing vegan side dishes in case he wants the option of eating vegan during dinner! This recipe (adapted from connoisseurus veg) turned out really well! 🤤😋😍 __ 🧀🥩🥦 Ingredients 🥦🥩🧀 6 cups water 2 tsp salt 2 cups yellow cornmeal 3 tbsp olive oil (or butter) 2 tbsp olive oil 1 large onion, chopped 6 cloves garlic, minced 2 cups dry white wine 2 tsp dried thyme 2 tsp dried rosemary 2 14-oz cans white beans (cannellini or great northern), drained 2 14-oz cans diced tomatoes 1 8-oz can tomato paste 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes 1/2 tsp pepper __ ⭕🔪 Instructions 🔪⭕ 💠 Prepare polenta: Boil 6 cups water in a large saucepan. Add 2 tsp salt. Whisk in the cornmeal. Reduce the heat to low, add a lid & cook until the mixture thickens and the cornmeal is tender, stirring often, about 15 minutes (add water during cooking if it thickens too much). Turn off heat. Add the oil/butter, stir until melted. 💠 Dump polenta into a 13x9" baking pan & press down evenly, set aside to cool. If you want stiffer polenta, do this ahead of time and allow to rest for 2-4 hours - or even refrigerate it. 💠 Preheat oven to 400°. 💠 Heat 1 tbsp oil over medium in a large skillet. 💠 Add the onion and cook until soft, 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute. 💠 Add the wine, thyme and rosemary. Bring the wine to a simmer. Simmer until reduced by about half, about 10 minutes. 💠 Stir in beans, tomatoes, tomato paste, pepper & red pepper flakes. 💠 Bring the mixture to a simmer & cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. 💠 Dump over top of polenta in baking dish. 💠 Bake in pre-heated oven for 20 minutes. 💠 I served this with grilled steak & roasted cauliflower (boiled in a wine broth first) topped with goat cheese. You could easily add some cheddar at the end & broil, but it was good without it.

Recipe Below!! 👇 Creamy Gnocchi w/ Baby Kale & Lemon *VEGAN* 👇 __ Some of y'all know that #1 has been vegan for a few months now. My "deal" with him was that I would buy him ingredients he can use to cool vegan meals throughout the week (not for specific recipes, if he wants something special he has to pitch in and buy the weird ingredients like tempeh.... I do buy him tofu and soy milk though) and I would make one entirely vegan meal per week to enjoy as a family. This really has me going out of my comfort zone quite often. This recipe (adapted from connoisseurus veg) turned out really well! 🤤😋😍 __ 🧀🥩🥦 Ingredients 🥦🥩🧀 2 lbs dried gnocchi 15 oz baby kale & spinach mix 4 tbsp olive oil, plus a dash 1 cup onions, diced 6 cloves garlic, minced 4 tbsp flour 1/2 cup dry white wine 2 tbsp fresh thyme leaves 2 cans full-fat coconut milk Juice and zest from 1 lemon 1 tsp salt (or to taste) Black pepper, to taste Red pepper flakes, for serving __ ⭕🔪 Instructions 🔪⭕ 💠 Bring a large pot of water to a boil. 💠 Add gnocchi & cook it according to the package. When you've got about 30 seconds of cook time left, stir in the kale/spinach and cook until the gnocchi float. 💠 Drain into a colander, return to the pot, toss with a dash of olive oil to prevent sticking. 💠 Add olive oil to a large pot and place it over medium heat. 💠 When the oil is hot, add the onions, sauté for about 5 minutes, until soft. Add the garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds more. 💠 Stir in the flour. Cook for about 2 minutes, until the flour forms a smooth paste and coats the onions. 💠 Stir in the white wine and thyme, bring the liquid to a simmer. Allow to simmer for about 6 minutes, until reduced by half. 💠 Stir in the coconut milk. Bring it to a boil, lower heat & allow it to simmer for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until smooth & thick. 💠 Stir in lemon juice, zest, gnocchi & kale. Cook about 30 seconds, stirring to combine. 💠 Remove from heat, season with salt and pepper. 💠 Serve with red pepper flakes. . . . #easyenough #homecooked #familymeals #feedanarmy #realfoods #cooking #gnocchi #onions #kale #wouldbegoodwithcheese #vegan https://www.instagram.com/p/BvU1T-WnsWk/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=aq51lfgehl4b

Recipe Below!! 👇 "Beyond Kraft" Mac N Cheese 👇 __ I had intended to make meatballs, but when I got home #4 wanted mac n cheese. SOOOO not feeling "the box" as it's intended, I improvised. So this is "Beyond Kraft" Mac N Cheese. 🤤😋😍 __ 🧀🥩🥦 Ingredients 🥦🥩🧀 1 box mac n cheese 1 cheese packet from said box 1 cup frozen peas 1 onion, chopped 6 sliced bacon 3 tbsp butter 2 tbsp flour 1 cup milk 1 cup shredded cheddar 1 cup shredded other cheese (I used gouda, could use literally any cheese you like) 1 tsp black pepper 1 tsp garlic powder 1 tsp paprika 2 tbsp sour cream (optional) __ ⭕🔪 Instructions 🔪⭕ 💠 Put a pot of water on the stove to boil (big enough for mac n cheese + peas + sauce) 💠 Once boiling, add pasta from the box and frozen peas, cook pasta according to box, then drain and add back to pan. Meanwhile... 💠 Heat oven to 350F. 💠 Place bacon in a single layer on a cookie sheet and place into oven while it warms up. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until crisp. Meanwhile... 💠 Heat butter in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Once melted, add onion to the skillet and let cook until caramelize, stirring it around occasionally. 💠 Sprinkle flour over the onions and butter, stir until the flour begins to smell nutty - 2-3 minutes. 💠 Pour cold milk in all at once, stir until smooth. Add spices (pepper, paprika, garlic) and stir until combined. 💠 Add cheeses (including cheese packet) and sour cream (if using, I use sour cream on damn near everything, but it's not everyone's bag), stir to combine. Add bacon, stir again. 💠 Add sauce to the pasta/peas and stir to combine. 💠 Enjoy! . . . #easyenough #homecooked #familymeals #feedanarmy #realfoods #cooking #macncheese #adapt #improvise #overcome #peas #bacon #bechamel #onions #cheddar #nofilter https://www.instagram.com/p/BvRlcFHnVXt/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8ggrq8170v1f
