Double up the recipe and it is great for meal prep as well. And the best part, you don't have to pay extra for guacamole 😉 I have to admit, [...]

Chicken Enchiladas
I know it is Taco Tuesday but enchiladas sound delicious and that is what we are having! Plus, I had leftover chicken so this was perfect. Growing up, enchiladas was not in my family vocabulary. Enchiladas originated in Mexico and its been practiced all over the world. Having parents from Central America, I grew up [...]
Chicken, The “Ross” Way
As my husband and I were sitting on the couch one weekend, we felt the need to contact some friends to see if they wanted to go for a cruise. We took the doors and top off of our jeep and took our friends on a drive out to Beaver Lake. Just parked, had a [...]
Homemade Flour Tortillas
With my parents being from Central America, I grew up with tortillas being part of our daily meals. Mom always made fresh corn tortillas and they must have been made with some secret ingredient that I have yet to figure out because I still don't believe I have mastered them! Of course, corn tortillas are [...]
Better Than Takeout Orange Chicken
My husband and I have this guilty pleasure of going to Panda Express and ordering way too much orange chicken and just overeating the crap out of it! Well, let me tell you, it is so much more yummy if you make it from home. This is definitely NOT a healthy recipe at all but [...]

Cajun Jambalaya and the best Cornbread Muffins
I recently had happy hour with a friend and all we could talk about is needing to get away. Somewhere close enough to drive to and with good food. Immediately, we both thought of Louisiana! Beignets, crawfish étouffée, gumbo, and of course, Jambalaya! I rarely make one pot meals but when I do, I expect [...]
Crispy Chicken with Thai Coconut Sauce
I recently hosted a dinner with friends and was super excited about my menu.... until I found out one of my guests was lactose intolerant and I was so embarrassed! Thankfully, she only missed out on the appetizer but made me want to redeem myself very soon. Well, I am definitely going to make this [...]
Shrimp Risotto
Wine, garlic, and cheese... All items needed for a perfect night to myself. Currently, my husband is doing what I believe almost everyone in Northwest Arkansas is doing, cheering on our Razorbacks at the baseball game! I love a good ballpark hot dog but me time is also a necessity. With that said, I wanted [...]
Cobb Salad with Walnut Crusted Tenders and Honey Mustard Dressing
I seriously only want crispy, fried, chicken tenders and French fries right now. Thats all. Is that too much to ask? Well, I will not lie when I say that I was not missing any of that with this meal. I am never a salad person, so when I make one, it has to be [...]
