  • I was a waitress in high school, during and after college, and before getting my "real job" that paid less than what I was making as a server. I even met my husband when we worked in a restaurant together. You could say food service has always played a big part in my life. Those jobs taught me more than any schooling could in how to multi-task, work with others, be kind to strangers, survive in times of stress, and serve others needs. Restaurants to me, are essential. Last night we took the night off from at-home QT cooking and ordered pick-up online from our favorite Thai restaurant @kao_thai_slc . Ordering online was quick, pick up was slick and easy and brought out with gloves to the car. It was familiar, comforting, great quality, and FRIGGING DELICIOUS! Helping local businesses and restaurants survive and thrive is integral to all of us getting out of this successfully on the other side. So this week, take the night off and pick up dinner from a local eatery and give us all the break we need right now. Eat well and be well friends! (pictured: pad Thai, tofu with eggplant, and chicken larb salad)
  • Just because we're in QT doesn't mean every meal needs to be a project. I mean, we're cooking and washing dishes for 3 squares every day! That's why this 10-minute maple glazed salmon from @lexiscleankitchen 's cookbook is a reader fave. Rub the brown sugar spice mix over salmon fillets then drizzle with maple syrup to create a caramelized crust for a healthy, easy dinner with just 6 ingredients that's ready in under 10 minutes. Bonus points for fewer dishes to wash too. Get the recipe when you tap the link in my profile and search maple salmon. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
  • So how do you make humble baked turkey meatballs look like the belles of the ball? Give them a Thai flavor twist then plop them in this lush, velvety sauce of red curry and coconut milk from the pantry topped with sprinkles of herby freshness. Suddenly, with the christening of a spatula as the dinner clock strikes time, their fairy tale allure matches the goodness within. Serve over rice or noodles and SNAP! Your dinner’s fairy godmother has arrived! Get the recipe when you tap the link in my profile and search turkey meatballs curry. Enjoy! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
  • Another pantry/freezer pasta recipe that feels fresh and healthy to make now or save for later. This easy pasta combines fresh or frozen broccoli with crispy chicken thighs in a creamy, shelf-stable almond milk and jarred pesto sauce that's equally good served hot for dinner or chilled as a leftover lunch or pasta salad. Another twofer for the #winnerwinnerchickendinner. Search creamy chicken pesto with the link in my profile for the recipe. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

  • Pantry staple based recipes are what we're all looking for now and these beyond easy chicken enchiladas answer the call. They start with a super easy, no-cook, homemade mole sauce for a delicious twist on a super fast Mexican dinner to eat now, or meal prep for later, or deliver to family or friends as a welcome surprise in this weird time we're in now. Even better, the leftovers are the best part, topped with a fried egg on top for a totally acceptable breakfast any time of day.
