I am wickedly obsessed with Chipotle’s Cilantro Lime Rice. Seriously, way too delicious. So I tried to recreate it. I didn’t quite get there, mainly because I think they use a Basmati or Long-Grain Rice, and I used the only rice we had (Minute Rice…the shame). However, it was still a pretty tasty little lunch! […]

Mmm paella. This is one of those wonderful dishes that tastes so rich and savory, but is secretly healthy since it’s basically all vegetables, with no fat! It sounds like it would be intimidating to make, but it’s actually quite easy enough for a weekday meal! Ingredient 1 cup uncooked rice of your choice (Arborio, […]

Once again, it’s been far too long since I’ve shared a recipe. I know you’ve all been thinking “WHAT ON EARTH IS DANIELLE COOKING TODAY?!? I MUST KNOW!!” But you can all breathe a sigh of relief, because I’m about to show you. This recipe came out of a desire to make something really flavorful […]

I have to be honest, it’s very rare that I have leftover tofu. I am kind of an addict, so I very rarely have some left for the next day. But when I do, I try to recreate it into a new meal, especially since tofu heats up better in a skillet than microwave. So […]

It’s about that time when I start craving warmer weather like nobody’s business. So to partially satisfy this craving, I like to make dishes that remind me of summer, and this one does exactly that. Grilled vegetables over a light gluten-free pasta (paired with a GF beer) makes me feel like I’m sitting out on […]

If you’re like me, you probably cook this delicious pot of chili, and end up having oodles and oodles of leftovers. I know I’ve said this before, but one of my favorite ways to cook is by remixing leftovers and turning them into something new. So, because I had all this leftover chili, I thought […]

I say that it’s my famous chili…that’s sort of a lie. Definitely not famous, but it is definitely one of my most signature dishes that I make all the time in the winter. The best and worst thing about this chili is that I don’t really have a set recipe. It turns out totally different […]

So I have to admit….this recipe was made on Christmas. That’s how behind I am on posting some recipes! To be fair I actually forgot about this one until today when I was flipping through my photo library. And I usually only blog recipes that are 100% my own (and if I don’t, credit is […]

Why do I call this particular veggie chili recipe a “stew?” I’m not totally sure, I just feel like I should! Plus, it has potatoes, gluten-free beer, and is a bit of a different consistency than regular chili. That makes it sort of a stew, right? Well, it doesn’t matter. Anyway, it was phenomenal, and […]

I will admit, I had a brussel sprout prejudice. Every time I had been around when they were cooked, they just smelled so odd I couldn’t imagine ingesting them, especially since you always hear complaints about these little vegetables. Well, I finally worked up the courage to give them a shot, and it turns out […]
