Frrrrrrrrrrrrr! i d a y . . . Things things things! Do you ever say that to your friends? I do. When it’s catchup time I feel like I say one of two things. Actually three things. One is: “Tell me something good.” I say that a lot. And also, “Tell me things!” I say […]

Chicken Sausage Tacos

Chicken Sausage Tacos / Bev Cooks

Ooooo easy weeknight alert! And listen, a twist on tacos. Can you dig? This is actually a very, very old recipe on my site from like, 1956. I took it, reshot it, revamped it, reglossed it. And here we are. The idea is the same. We just added panache. Let us peepeth. It’s taco night, […]

Weeknight Chicken Nachos

Processed with VSCO with a6 preset

Hello, my favorite new wing-it weeknight PLATTER ‘O BLISS. But I’m not dramatic about it or anything. Nachos. We all love them. We all forget what an easy whip-it-up situation they can be and completely are. This isn’t even really a recipe. It’s just a springboard to get that noggin of yours juiced up (sorry) […]

Cilantro Lime Shrimp

Cilantro Lime Shrimp / Bev Cooks

Probably the most intensely perfect way to make shrimp. We won’t argue about it. It’s sweet. It’s savory. It’s got attitude and pizazz and all the flavor. And honestly, it’s so simple. We’ll zip up a quick marinade, let the shrimp bathe in it, sear ’em up and call it good. Let us peepeth. And […]

Buffalo Chicken Wraps

Buffalo Chicken Wraps / Bev Cooks

You can’t get mad about the game day food, right? It’s so that time. These look laborious, but truly, they’re just odds and ends of whatever you have in the fridge that will make up these wraps. (I almost called them wrappy-poos but I remember I like having human friends.) I cannot get enough of […]

lamp and plants / bev cooks

Frrrrrrrrrrri think we’re officially past the snow days! Possibly. Maybe? Okay, you guys. I heard an ad for VRBO the other day during one of my podcasts, and the girl pronounced it like VERBO. Not V R B O. Not the letters all in the row, but like VERB plus O. Hahahahah! WHAT? I never […]

Rigatoni with Slow-Roasted Tomatoes

Rigatoni with Slow-Roasted Tomatoes / Bev Cooks

OoooooOOOOOOOOOOoooooo honey child. Come here. This is the winteriest of winter meals. Rustic. Savory. Rich. Tangy. It’s slow-day perfection and we’re (you’re) going to rearrange a couple of things this weekend to make it happen. Roger that? Roger that. Let us peepeth. Slow-roasted tomatoes are up there for me and blissful life happenings. That and […]

Broiled Salmon and Broccoli Bowls

Broiled Salmon and Broccoli Bowls / Bev Cooks

Bowls! You know we love a good bowl. And this one has become our Monday night staple and I need you to obsess over it like I do. I do have one thing to add though. The salmon in this photo is not what I normally buy. My store was out of the pretty fillets, […]
