Easy soup recipes for dinner

December 10, 2019

Homemade soup is my dinner go to. When I can’t figure out what I want to eat, I know that I have lots of easy soup recipes for dinner that I can make in about 30 minutes. I am a soup lover, I can eat it no matter the weather. One of our all time favorites is this easy lentil soup recipe. I make this at least every other month and it never goes to waste.

For me, food in bowls is pure comfort. There is something about holding a warm bowl of food, inhaling it’s goodness and leaning over it to dig in. And a good bowl of soup is like a hug for your insides.

Stuffed Hubbard Squash Recipe

November 14, 2019

Nothing beats this stuffed hubbard squash recipe for the perfect autumnal dinner. Beautiful Hubbard squash filled with wild rice, baby kale and golden raisins, it is a healthy and filling dinner. Ready in about an hour, mostly hands-off cooking time, this is a great low key recipe. If you love stuffed squash, try this quinoa stuffed acorn squash.

Hubbard squash flesh is slightly drier than acorn or butternut and it is a bit earthier in flavor. The bluish-gray color and deep orange flesh is beautiful and makes for a striking contrast.

Any kind of roasted squash is, for me, the perfect fall food and if you like to change up for your holiday side dishes, this would be a great addition to the meal.

How to Make Melting Potatoes with Garlic and Herbs

September 24, 2019

Melting potatoes are one of the easiest, most delicious ways to get a lot of bang for your buck for a quick side dish. The oven does the majority of the work for you, all you have to do is flip them a couple of times. That tiny bit of effort is rewarded with the most perfectly roasted potato dish to ever grace your dinner table. I love serving these with this Beef Tenderloin Roast for special occasions.

This is the best of both worlds as far as potatoes go. The outside is golden and incredibly crispy, while the inside remains tender and fluffy.
