French Onion Zoodle Bake

I love French Onion Soup, it’s my all time favorite. I do order it in restaurants, usually without the bread, but I never really know what’s in it...This isn’t a soup, but it has all the flavor of a good french onion soup though. I think I might play with it and see if I...

Broccoli Salad

A simple vegetable dish that can be adapted to any taste. A healthy side dish or a light dinner. The purple notes are my additions and substitutions.

Garlic Butter Chicken Thighs

I have never been a huge fan of chicken thighs, but because of a recent sale at the grocery store I decided I needed to try again. I went looking for a keto friendly chicken thigh recipe that sounded good. I knew it needed to be crispy...this is what I found. It was so good,...
