Brioche Buns

There is something about making your own bread that makes just makes you want to eat it all with no slice left to survive the tale. The smell of yeast while it sits bubbling. The aroma of warm, fresh, fluffy carbs just waiting to get your hands on it after it cools ever so slightly…

Chicken Tortilla Soup

No one can beat my Chicken Tortilla Soup. It’s certainly a fan favorite with my friends and family. This soup can be eaten at any time of year. The fresh bold ingredients, make it a perfect summer appetizer; while the heat and spice will warm you up on the cold winter days. Say goodbye…

Sweet Chili Corn Soup

Corn is one of my all time favorite ingredients. It tastes delightful on its own or it can be made into a number of sweet or savory dishes. During the summer months, I eat corn weekly (typically on the cob, slathered in butter) and this year I’ve been trying out a number of different recipes…

Beef Stroganoff

My parents were big foodies and used to take us as children to fine dining restaurants weekly. Every weekend we would go to a local French restaurant where the chef/owners would allow us to brûlée our own desserts and show us some “tricks” in the kitchen. We would stay well after closing while my parents…

Sheet Pan Steak Tacos

New video. Watch as I make these awesome tacos in my own kitchen… Someone asked me while working if I could choose one thing to eat for the rest of my life, what would it be. I said “Tacos.” That may come as a surprise to some (because of my pasta obsession) but there is…

Southwestern Salad in a Jar

Eating out is certainly a vice of mine. And with my job in food and my job in sales, I tend to eat out A LOT! So, it’s not a surprise that lunches out are a thing. And, because life is busy, grabbing a bite someplace is usually what I resort to as I barely…

Pink Cacio e Pepe

With Valentine’s Day around the corner, I wanted to make a dish that would be easy to make but has the essence of Valentine’s. Texan and I have a lot of expenses coming up so we decided that staying in and making something special at home is the best way to celebrate this year. The…

The Best Meatless Chili

With Superbowl coming up, I thought I’d share a classic football favorite: Chili. And what is even better than chili? When you combine it with Cheddar and Onion Cornbread! The combination is a drool worthy event perfect for a house full of hungry fans (or, just yourself). One of my favorite things about making chili…

Sweet Chili Chicken Lettuce Wraps

If you’ve been following along here at Theasty for any amount of time you know that I love Mexican food. And while margaritas and nachos are always welcome, my absolute favorite Mexican food is tacos. Beef, chicken, veggies…if you can stuff it in a tortilla and top it with lettuce, cheese, pico de gallo and…

Green Vegetable Soup

Happy New Year! With January here and 2019 full of exciting events (ahem… a wedding), I am jumping on the health wagon to get myself back on track. I’m a firm believer in balance but the holiday season had us living large in food coma lane so a clean diet is just what we need in January.…
