Vegan Squash Soup with Naan Croutons
This butternut squash soup is so full of flavor that you won't miss the meat or dairy! The added can of pumpkin helps to make the soup creamy and smooth, while the coconut milk adds a light sweetness. I love to make this soup as the seasons change!
Apple Chicken Curry
When she was in college, my daughter introduced me to curry dishes. Now we love the aroma of apples simmering with chicken, curry and coconut milk.
Shrimp Fajitas
I’ve lost 50 pounds recently and my husband, Jere, has lost 65. We’re always looking for tasty ways to keep the weight off. I think working moms would love it as much as we do because it's so quick and easy.
Vegetarian Pad Thai
With this vegetarian pad thai recipe, you can make a sweet-and-tangy Thai takeout classic at home.
Curry Pomegranate Protein Bowl
This recipe is simple and beautiful. It uses a lot of unique flavors that, when blended together, create an out-of-this-world taste sensation. You can substitute other roasted, salted nuts for the soy nuts and can use warmed berry jam in place of the molasses.
Bacon-Wrapped Turkey
This crispy bacon-wrapped turkey will be the star of your next holiday meal. Because everything is better with bacon—including turkey!
Cauliflower Tikka Masala
I'm a vegetarian, and it can be challenging to find new recipes. This cauliflower tikka masala is my easy take on the original.
Vegan Butter Cauliflower
I created this Indian butter cauliflower recipe for all the picky eaters in my family who love ethnic food. It's also vegan-friendly.
Citrus Coconut Steamed Cod
I love to make this fusion meal on weeknights when I am short on time but want something big in flavor.
Multi Cooker Cheddar Gruyere Macaroni and Cheese
You can't beat this rich and creamy Ninja Foodi mac and cheese. This multi-cooker recipe is a new twist on the original.
Mango Chicken Thighs with Basil Coconut Sauce
This recipe brings the restaurant to my home kitchen. And it’s easy, too! The meal comes together quickly and fills my kitchen with wonderful aromas. If there are any leftovers, they're just as good reheated the next day.
Pork and Hominy Stew
This pork hominy stew, also known as pozole, is a delicious southwestern delicacy. I moved it to the slow cooker so it can simmer away on its own. The rich, brothy soup is delicious, much like a tamale in a bowl.
Pressure-Cooker Smoked Sausage and White Beans
My husband grew up in the South, where sausage and beans were on the menu weekly. I quickly became a fan. The pressure cooker eliminates the lengthy process of soaking the beans overnight and then slow-cooking them. Serve the dish over white rice, and use crusty bread to soak up the broth. I used gourmet smoked sausage flavored with Gouda and pear for this dish, but you can use any smoked sausage you like.
Pressure Cooker Cola BBQ Chicken
This recipe is rich with sweet and smoky deliciousness. The meat is juicy and tender, and I like to add a few tasty toppings, like sliced dill pickles and a layer of pepper jack cheese, for a boost of flavor. This can also be cooked in the slow cooker on low for 8 hours.
Caribbean Curried Chicken
Having grown up in the Virgin Islands, I've eaten my fair share of authentic curried chicken. This recipe hits the mark with big, bold flavors. It's delicious served over rice.
