Honey Garlic Pork Chops

Ok, I have to admit, I’ve always claimed to hate pork chops….I know, I know, yet here I am making a recipe for them. Turns out you CAN get tired of eating chicken 91823 times 129387 different ways. Truth is, I hate any kind of meat with bones because I hate cutting around them, and …

Clean Cornbread

I have been searching for a clean cornbread recipe, and haven’t found one I’m totally over the moon about yet. So when I don’t find something, I make it.

Crockpot Tortilla Soup

My sister, Sarah, and I LOVE a good crock pot meal. And we’re also kinddddd of obsessed with Mexican food. Another meal making its debut to week 2 of the Ten Day Trim is our favorite – homemade, clean chicken tortilla soup. There’s nothing better than a crockpot meal when it comes to meal prep. …

Stuffed Peppers: Italian & Mexican Style

I LOVE stuffed peppers. My sister introduced them to me a few years ago, and I love how quick, easy, and how minimalistic their prep time is. I always see recipes for Mexican-style stuffed peppers, and love those because they are so delish and so easy, but I also love making them Italian-style! I know …

Clean Teriyaki Sauce

Last night I posted a salad recipe that included by slow cooker pork tenderloin. I’m kind of obsessed with my crock-pot, if you couldn’t tell from previous posts about it! I love that I can just throw everything in, and BOOM! In 4-8 hours something delicious is done without any maintenance. Self-proclaimed as a clean-ish …

Slow Cooker Teriyaki Pork Tenderloin – Takes the Salad Main Stage

Oh my gosh. I had the BEST salad last week for lunch. It came from leftovers from a teriyaki pork tenderloin I made in my crock pot the night before & a leftover veggie tray grab bag I had from hosting a mommy+baby pumpkin play-date the day before also. It was SO good, in fact, …
