Chicken Bites Recipe

chicken bites

This is my modified version of a supposedly copycat version of Chick Fil A’s chicken bites. I made a few modifications. I tried to make mine FODMAP friendly. This means no dairy or wheat. I also eliminated the peanut oil for my son’s allergy. (I’m well aware some people feel peanut oil is safe, but… read more »

Caution! Hot Oil!

065

No matter how many times you cook, or cook with hot oil (even just a little bit), safety is imperative. I learned that last night. Otherwise, you can land yourself in the ER with 2nd degree burns.

Mmmm…Cinnamon Rolls

I finally made cinnamon rolls from scratch and forever ruined myself for the Pillsbury pop can kind. My 5yo on the other hand is asking where the ones from the grocery store are. Damn that SPD.

My husband and I got to go out – alone – for the third time in three years. We had talked about trying a Thai place. We had talked about going to Five Guys. We really didn’t know where to go. We’re not used to being able to go wherever we want. We ended up at Lancaster… read more »

It’s no wonder I’ve been having GI issues after eating out. Seemingly… read more »

Chicken and Gnocchi Soup Recipe

I can’t believe I’ve never posted this recipe before. It’s a family favorite, especially in winter when it’s cold, and one of the few things I can make where the whole family eats the same thing.

Yum? Nuts.
