Chicken Meatballs & Spaghetti
Normally, when I think meatballs, I think meat – good ol’ grade a beef. Usually mixed with marinara sauce and noodles. But meatballs aren’t just for hamburger anymore and this tasty chicken variation really proves that. The combination of the leaner ground chicken, flavorful pizza sauce and fresh gooeyness of the mozzarella cheese creates…
Easy Chicken Dumpling Soup
I consider this a great cheater recipe. One that can easily be made on a weeknight and still be in bed in time for a good night sleep. The base is going to be the same as other chicken soups, but the dumpling is really the cheater part of it. Instead of making your own…

Cider Brined & Glazed Turkey
I had the pleasure of enjoying two Thanksgivings last year. One in the Twin Cities and one in my hometown. The one in the Twin Cities was a large pot luck with many people and LOTS of food. The one in my home town involved me creating the menu and really getting to try some…
