recent eats – fall 2020

I may earn money or products from the companies mentioned in this post. As always, my opinions and sentiments are my own and I express them freely, regardless of sponsorship because I partner with brands I love.

If you’ve followed me for a while, you know that I love to cook a good meal. I’ve made some delicious recent eats as I’ve been challenging myself to try some new things and get outside my rut of cooking the same things over and over lately. I’m going to continue to add some of the recipes that I’ve made lately here (you can pin the recipes to Pinterest by hovering over the image and pressing the red P).

Asian-Glazed Chicken Thighs in the air fryer (served with brown rice and steamed broccoli) (recipe and image from Skinnytaste)

These Asian Glazed Chicken Thighs come out so juicy and delicious in the air fryer! Perfect with brown rice and steamed veggies on the side.

 

Low Carb Chicken Pesto Bake (served with long grain wild rice for my husband and mashed cauliflower for me) (image and recipe via Hey Keto Mama)

This Low Carb Chicken Pesto Bake is an amazing comfort meal that's actually good for you! It's full of flavor, warmth and CHEESE...doesn't get much better than that! | heyketomama.com

 

Skinny Swedish Meatballs (no heavy cream) served with mashed cauliflower and/or whole grain pasta (image and recipe via Skinnytaste)

My family loves these Swedish meatballs. They are so tender and flavorful and much lighter than traditional recipes out there. And, let’s not forget the sauce! The creamy sauce really makes the dish. #skinnytaste

 

My own Instant Pot Gumbo – perfect with brown rice

 

Enjoy these delicious recent eats dishes!
