Italian Style Hummus Crusted Chicken with Veggies
If you haven’t noticed, I like to put new twists on my favorite recipes. I, unlike most people who stick to tried-and-true methods, always feel the urge to mess around in the kitchen to make a recipe better or simply use different ingredients. Just check out the five million ways I reinvent oatmeal almost every day. With that said, it should be … Continue reading »
Blazing Buffalo Chicken Melt
Sooooo this sandwich happened yesterday during my first lunch at home in Florida . . . and it tasted fantastic thanks to Boar’s Head’s Blazing Buffalo Style Roasted Chicken Breast. This chicken is one of my favorite deli meats, and I just so happened to find the perfect toppings to complement the smoky, spicy chicken. Turkey bacon, pepper jack cheese, and Kurtz’s … Continue reading »
Balsamic Strawberry Salad
This salad is dressed to impress. The toppings make it fancy-schmancy, but it’s actually super simple and inexpensive to make. I can’t be the only person who thinks it’s insane to pay $9 for an “artisanal” salad I can whip up at home for under $2 per serving. Does anyone agree with me? Anyway, this sweet and savory salad makes the perfect light meal or side … Continue reading »
It’s Been a While
Guess who’s back? Rather than try to explain my absence, I’ll just say that the summer was MUCH busier than I had planned (a.k.a. interning at the State Attorney’s Office, working at Panera, taking an online class…) I know it’s been more than two months since my last post, but don’t think for one second … Continue reading »
Chicken and Biscuit for One

Not to mention, she has that infectious personality that makes you wonder if she’s ever in a bad mood. If I were to become a chef, I’d want my career to resemble hers … and … Continue reading »
A Grilled Makeover
I was never a huge fan of grilled chicken and vegetables . . . until this meal happened. Grilled Balsamic-Rosemary Chicken and Summer Vegetables I never eat grilled food while living on campus, so this juicy dinner was quite a treat. With Memorial Day approaching, I told my dad fire up the grill so I could … Continue reading »
Honey Teriyaki Stir-Fry Chicken
I’m not going to lie to you – I didn’t feel like cooking anything today. After thinking through two exams and finishing a final project Wednesday, I took a well-deserved mental health break on Thursday by sleeping in late, watching hours of my favorite TV shows on my laptop and tanning. In other words, the day consisted of no homework, no … Continue reading »
Summer Salad with Cinnamon Chicken
The story behind Monday’s dinner is quite interesting, so let me set the scene for you: Hungry and tired gator gal comes back to her dorm room after riding her bike back from the last iBurn class of this year. Said girl wastes 30 minutes resting, jamming out to music and wasting time on Pinterest. Her stomach really starts … Continue reading »
Chipotle Chicken Salad
Warning – this recipe is a HOT one! Actually, this chipotle chicken salad is cold, but the flavors lit my taste buds on fire. After devouring honey roasted chicken salad about a week ago, I realized that Greek yogurt provides an endless number of opportunities for making chicken salad. A craving hit around lunchtime yesterday, but I was too … Continue reading »
