My children love this light and fresh chicken and rice noodle salad. I like to use thin Thai rice noodles, which just require a few minutes of soaking in hot water. Serve the salad with thinly sliced serrano or green Thai chili peppers for those who prefer it with a bit more spice! If you have an Instant Pot, use it to cook the chicken earlier in the day or when you get home from work. Then come back and throw together the salad 30 to 60 minutes later. The chicken will tenderize from a long, slow natural release in the Instant Pot. 

A whole roasted chicken makes its way to our dinner table at least once a week during the cooler months. Despite the longer cooking time, this is a very easy and quick meal to prepare.

Just before the chicken comes out of the oven, turn your stove on and cook the potatoes.

Nightshade family vegetables include bell peppers, chili peppers, chili powder, and paprika, all of which are typically found in traditional fajita recipes.

Homemade granola is one of the easiest things to make. Your children can help measure and stir the ingredients together and then patiently wait for the pan to come out of the oven.

Any type of ground meat can be used along with a variety of vegetables. Pad Krapow recipes typically contain gluten and soy because of the sauce ingredients used, however, I have created a delicious soy-free and gluten-free version that everyone can enjoy! Holy basil can be hard to find in northern climates during the cooler months, so use any type of basil you can find. Sweet basil works well!

These cupcakes are very easy to make and not overly sweet. If you can't do cane sugar, use maple sugar instead!

Frost them with Maple Buttercream Frosting that has been naturally colored with beet juice powder!

Serve this easy to make side dish with lamb burgers or turkey burgers for a quick weeknight meal! Use two sheet pans if needed to make sure the sweet potato rounds are roasting in a single layer. 

Beef bone broth is deeply nourishing and useful to have on hand for making soups and stews. Bone broth normally gathers a lot of flavor from the garlic and onions that are typically used.
