All in Weeknight Meals
Easy White Bean Chicken Chili that can be made gluten-free and dairy-free and includes stove top and slow cooker directions.
The best Italian style turkey meatball and red sauce recipe. The turkey meatballs can be made in advance and even frozen until you are ready to use them. The recipe is egg-free and can be easily made dairy-free and/or gluten-free. The tomato basil sauce is also delicious on its own with pasta, if you’re not in a meatball mood.
This Weeknight Chicken Noodle Soup is just about as easy to make as heating up a can of chicken noodle soup but so much more delicious! It is so comforting and so good and the best part is that it couldn’t get any easier to make.
This is a version of Tom Kha Gai that includes ingredients that can be found at most grocery stores. Although this is a variation of the authentic Thai ingredients, I promise you the end result might be the best thing you’ve ever made.
This rich and flavorful Cajun dish that satisfies my craving for Cajun flavors becomes an easy weeknight meal by using pre-cooked chicken sausage and a blonde roux.
Simple and delicious wedding soup with chicken sausage meatballs. This recipe combines several different takes on wedding soup to produce the most flavorful result in the shortest amount of time.
