Dinner

Satisfying dinner ideas for any night of the week, from simple weeknight staples to recipes worth slowing down for on the weekend.

  • Apple Butter Pork Chops

    Last fall we were visiting my in-laws. My mother-in-law made these pork chops three nights in a row because the kids kept asking for them. I must have watched her make them four times before I figured out her little secret. She tastes the apple butter sauce after each ingredient instead of waiting until the…

  • Chicken Rice Bowls

    This is the kind of thing I wish I’d learned sooner. The first time I made it was for dinner back in 2020, when we couldn’t travel, and I overcooked the poultry by almost 10 minutes. It was still the best part of the meal somehow. That’s when I realized this recipe is way more…

  • Mini Pizzas

    Last summer we were visiting my in-laws and my mother-in-law made this dish three nights in a row because the kids kept asking for it. I must have watched her make it four times before I figured out her little secret, she tastes the sauce after adding each ingredient instead of waiting until the end….

  • Air Fryer Salmon

    Last summer we were visiting my in-laws and my mother-in-law made this dish three nights in a row because the kids kept asking for it. I must have watched her make it four times before I figured out her little secret, she rubs the oil on the skin side first so it crisps up instantly….

  • Ground Beef Meal Prep

    When you’re greedy like me and want proper savory beef flavour in every bite – not just a faint whiff of “vaguely tastes like seasoning .. maybe? ” – making a Ground Beef Meal Prep suddenly becomes harder than it sounds. I really thought it would be simple: toss the meat through my favourite skillet,…

  • Roast Chicken

    I honestly haven’t really shared many whole poultry recipes on my blog, but this Roast Chicken recipe was one I had to share. This recipe is inspired by classic home cooking and is simple to prepare. It’s a super tasty dish packed full of protein and is quite filling. When people think about roasting a…

  • Stuffing

    I made this stuffing for the first time the week we moved into our house in 2019, boxes everywhere, no proper kitchen setup, and somehow it turned out better than expected. What saved me that night was keeping the baking heat lower than I thought I should so the bread soaked up all the flavor…

  • Garlic Bread

    I honestly haven’t really shared many yeast based recipes on my blog, but this Garlic Bread recipe was one I had to share. This recipe is inspired by casual home baking and is easy to prepare and make. It’s a super tasty side packed full of flavor and is quite filling. If you need a…

  • Garlic Butter Shrimp Pasta

    You guys! When my wife tasted this recipe, she said. “I think that’s one of the best things you’ve ever done”! I have to say, it’s one of my top five favorites! A Saturday evening experiment turned into the best garlic butter shrimp pasta ever! It has the same rich flavor as a high-end restaurant…
