I am so excited to be sharing this recipe with yall today! Growing up in the Midwest, eating collard greens wasn’t very common. But in my 20’s I had collard greens at a restaurant and was hooked. I started looking up different recipes and molding them to my likings. Now, 7 years later, I finally mastered my own recipe.

Today I’m sharing my go-to recipe for Quick and Easy Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitasthat I have been making for a couple years now. This recipe is perfect for the working mom or dad that’s exhausted from a long day and just needs a quick, semi-healthy meal for their family.

These chicken and dumplings are to die for! Making the broth from scratch and letting it simmer for hours really takes this dish to another level of flavor. I wouldn’t classify this dish as being incredibly hard. The only tricky part (for me at least) was when it came to the dumplings and not over cooking them. Don’t worry, I’ll give you tips and tricks along the way to ensure yours will turn out fabulous! 

Oooooo girl, this recipe for Sleep Time Stew by Chrissy Teigen is one of my all time favorite comfort meals! This recipe is out of Chrissy’s second cookbook called Cravings: Hungry for More, which I would totally recommend buying. It’s delicious, hearty and totally fulfilling for a cozy family dinner.

When I was making this Chicken Pot Pie Soup by Chrissy Teigen for this post, my mom happened to be in town. This was her first time trying it and she almost had a melt down because of how good this soup is.

Alright everyone, it's time for the 4th recipe out of my First Impressions Series feating the cookbook Magnolia Table by Joanna Gaines!I chose this recipe because it seemed super easy and straight forward to cook. And of course, I love me a good pork meal.

My husband defiantly lives up to his Irish roots when it comes to obsessively loving beef and potatoes, so picking this beef stew to make was right up his alley. I’m not gonna lie to ya, I'm not the biggest beef fan but I figured I’d give this a whirl. Chrissy Teigen has a beef stew in her second cookbook called Sleepy Time Stew and it’s the freaking bomb. So what the hey, let’s give it a try. 

So I figured I would start this firstimpression series off with the highly known cookbook by Joanna Gaines, Magnolia Table. I’ve seen so many people buy it, but have yet to cook from it and I’ve been dying to know if it’s good or not.

Try not to be intimidated by this meal, it is really not that hard to achieve and freaking delicious! I can’t figure out what I like more, the stuffed goat cheese and cream cheese mixture or that it’s wrapped in prosciutto... ugh and don’t forget about the cherry tomatoes! Okay it’s all great.

Okay, real talk though.. These meatballs subs are the dinner meal you never knew you needed. Is it time consuming? Yes. Is it the simplest meal? No. But DAMNIT IT’S GOOD! And it sounds a little crazy to make these on hotdog buns, but I swear that’s what makes it so freaking good. The damn hotdog bun. Who knew?
