After falling in love with cooking over ten years ago, I’ve made it a goal to cook and learn about various ingredients and dishes. It’s all about learning- not about the meals being perfect. Please join me as I continue this adventure! (98% of the recipes end up being delicious- it’s worth following along!)

If you’ve seen my latest recipes, you can probably tell that I am in full-force Autumn mode. This Thai Chicken with Butternut Squash is perfect for this weather, but delicious enough to have year-round. I love the Summer and I am not a fan of the Winter months.

As I continue adding more nutritious meal options to my diet, I find myself craving the not-so-healthy meals that I love.
