Also known as Jewish Penicillin, Matzo Ball Soup is an age-old comfort recipe that never goes out of style. There are about a million recipes for it, and every chef/food blogger/Jewish grandmother has their own special technique or tip. Everyone has their own best matzo ball soup recipe.

Some recipes are fast and easy, and some are complicated with many different steps and ingredients. And the sheer volume of these options can be overwhelming and intimidating. Admittedly, I make my matzo ball soup in many different ways, depending on time, resources, and mood. And depending on what flavor or texture I’m going for. But today I wanted to share a super simple, uncomplicated version that just about anyone can throw together quickly and easily, without any previous matzo ball making experience or Jewish genes.

Easy Egg Salad

But now I eat and prepare eggs many different ways. They are such an excellent source of protein and healthy fat, and they have become a staple in may of my meals and snacks. One snack that I absolutely adore is my Easy Egg Salad Recipe. It’s SO simple, uses just a handful of ingredients, and does NOT have any mayo!

With all the Valentine’s Day prep hustle and bustle this week (on top of sports practices, appointments, meetings, and errands), this Instant Pot Chicken Enchilada Soup recipe was a lifesaver for me! It comes together quickly and easily and is perfect for the days when I just HAVE NO TIME. And this soup is easy, people. Like really, REALLY easy.

We’ve been having super whacky weather here lately…one day it’s cold, the next day it’s hot. I can’t keep up. But when one of those chilly days hit, I was ready to bundle up in my comfy sweater and I wanted some hot, savory, soul-warming soup. And boy did this Instant Pot recipe deliver!! And it satisfies my craving for Mexican food like nobody’s business.

Instant Pot Sunday Pot Roast

I could not wait to share my Instant Pot Sunday Pot Roast with you all today! I made this last week on a super busy day, and my family was blown away at how incredible this dish turned out. The beef was so moist and tender, and was absolutely melting in our mouths. I barely even had to shred it much, because it just completely fell apart almost entirely on its own.

Homemade Ranch Seasoning

Ranch dressing – it’s that magical sauce that makes pretty much anything taste incredible. Am I right? From my childhood years to my adult years, ranch dressing has always been a beloved favorite of mine. Let’s face it, as a kid, the only way I was going to eat veggies, was if they were slathered in my mom’s homemade ranch dressing mix.

Let’s face it. No game day table is complete with something “buffalo chicken”. Am I right? Whether it is wings, dips, sandwiches, or lasagnas (yes, that actually exists), there’s just something about buffalo chicken that makes it a party staple. And it’s the one thing that I just cannot resist!

For this year’s Super Bowl, I’ve got no big party to attend, so it’ll be just me, the hubs, and the kids. This is good though because I’ll be making all the game time goodies, so I can make sure I’ve got only healthy, weight watchers friendly snacks on the table.

To satisfy my need for all things buffalo chicken, I’ll be whipping up these incredible Buffalo Chicken Celery Sticks. You guys, I kid you not, these things are ridiculously delicious and a breeze to make. It literally takes just a few of ingredients, and 10 minutes, and you’ve got one seriously stellar appetizer recipe that is so good, that you may not want to share. And that’s OK. No judgment.

You guys know how much I love quick and easy dinner recipes…especially ones that involve minimal cleanup! Well these Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas have given me another delicious and healthy chicken recipe to add to my weeknight dinner recipe repertoire.

I find a nice, warm, flavorful bowl of egg drop soup to be so comforting. There’s just something about the aromas of that salty broth, and those silky egg ribbons that really speak to my soul. Especially with there chilly winter weather we’ve been having recently here in SoCal.

I first had egg drop soup years ago at a Chinese restaurant and was blown away by how something so seemingly simple could taste so wonderful and be so satisfying. Compared to other popular Chinese dishes, egg drop soup is pretty diet friendly.

caprese stuffed portobello 2

Tender, garlic buttered portobello mushrooms, stuffed with fresh tomatoes and basil, topped with melty mozzarella cheese, and the drizzled with a sweet and tangy balsamic glaze!?! Stick a fork in me, I’m done. Sometimes the most decadent low carb recipes come in the simplest form, and this Caprese Stuffed Portobellos recipe is nothing short of easy, yet indulgently fabulous.

5 minute restaurant salsa

Chips and salsa are such a beloved snack…I mean, come on…have you ever met anyone who doesn’t like it? And with so many salsa variations available, this is a food you can never get tired of! I really love all salsas, from the freshly made to the store-bought, and everything in between.
