Maple Mustard Roasted Chicken is an easy and flavorful dish! In case any of you doubted how much I totally love my readers, this recipe should put the doubts to rest. I totally made this chicken for y'all. You people asked me for an easy chicken dish, and this one delivers. It's so flavorful, so moist, so good...you can't even imagine. But the best part? This chicken requires 5 minutes of prep time. Maybe less. No jokes. This is actually an accidental reincarnation of an old family favorite chicken dish. I made this amazing sauce, and sliced up some onions, then a lightbulb went off in my head, and I decided to cook it the same way as my saucy onion chicken. The result was chicken with … [Read more...]
Grilled Chicken and Portobello Wraps with Garlic Mayo
Grilled Chicken and Portobello Wraps with Garlic Mayo are a healthy supper that's easy to make and delicious to eat! So you might have guessed, based on the (in)frequency of posts lately that I've been crazy busy. Nothing new for me, you say? Well sadly, I've found myself the kind of busy where I am cooking less frequently than usual. And that means...eating or ordering out. Not the best option when you're dieting, but one of the more diet friendly options you can usually find is a grilled chicken wrap. Problem is, no matter how healthy they say it is, you just know there's gonna be hidden calories all over the place, right? Second problem, it's painful to pay a restaurant to … [Read more...]

Fill Your Freezer: 40 Freezer Friendly Starters, Soups and Sides
So, my Jewish readers who are feverishly starting to prepare definitely know why this is coming.

9 Meatless Meal Ideas
If you're an observant Jew, you are probably very well aware that "the 9 days" are coming. For those who aren't familiar, the 9 days of mourning are a period of time in the summer when Jews mourn the destruction of the temple in various ways - one of which is not eating meat. I personally have a really difficult time of it, as chicken is my supper pretty much every night. I don't touch fish, and diets and pasta don't go well together. So I figured I would gather together a few of the recipes I will be making for the 9 days. If I need them, I am sure some of you do as well! So whether you are a Jew looking for "9 days" ideas, or you're simply looking to cut down on your meat consumption, … [Read more...]

It's one of my favorite recipes to make, it's totally versatile, it's a meal in a pot, it's gluten free and healthy...do I need to go on? I was going to post this forever-ago, then I got side tracked with stuff like purim and I kinda forgot about this recipe. Then I cooked it for supper tonight (it's simmering on my stove right now and it smells amazing and I was all oh. I never posted this recipe. And then I realized how passover friendly this recipe is, and I knew it was going to have to get featured. Regarding passover (who gets all stressed out when I start discussing Passover? Just … [Read more...]

Mushroom Beef Sliders and a Review and Giveaway of CHIC Made Simple
Giveaway Closed! I'm super excited to be reviewing another fabulous and hot new kosher cookbook, CHIC Made Simple. The author, Esther Deutch, actually writes for the same magazine as me, Ami Living's Whisk magazine. Oddly enough, I didn't meet her until Kosher Fest, when we practically bumped into each-other. "You're Overtime Cook?!" She exclaimed. "I am such a fan." Well. After an introduction like that, I couldn't wait to see her beautiful cookbook and try some of the recipes. At a First Glance: CHIC Made Simple is beautiful. And I am not talking simply about the pictures (which are really nice!). This book is big, hard covered, and really nice all around. Every page has a … [Read more...]
Healthy Crockpot Turkey Meatballs in a Tomato-Spinach Sauce
Healthy Crockpot Turkey Meatballs are a fantastic make-ahead meal that's good for you! Y'know what the worst part about commuting is? It's getting home from work at 7:30 pm on a cold, dark winter night. I step off the bus into the cold air, and all I want to do is curl up in bed in my favorite (and super cozy, albeit hole-y) gap sweatshirt, sipping on a hot drink of some sort. But then I remember that my night starts when I get home at 7:30, so instead I eat some supper and get to work. And obviously, by work, I mean baking, writing and photographing. One thing, however, is for sure. And that is that there's no way on earth I'm gonna start cooking when I get home. Not on a … [Read more...]
