Today, we're making a GIANT meatball on top of a giant pile of pasta! It's inspired by that famous meatball at Lavo in Vegas, but way more fun because, well, GIANT pasta! We're going to make some super flavorful meatballs with a mix of ground meats (including Wagyu!), cheeses, and my secret ingredie
Spaghettio’s could never. This is my big kid/adult version of spaghettio’s, which is also kind of like pasta e fagioli, and also kinda like pasta alla rossa. Thanks to some of my favorite power ingredients, this creamy, tomatoey, hearty pasta is high in protein, fiber, and flavor, and it only takes
She’s a killer… spaghettiiiii. Tomato power, but no cream Dynamite, it’ll make you scream Guaranteed to blow your mind… Everytime. Alright, Queen didn’t write those exact lyrics, but The Pasta Queen wrote a version of this recipe and that’s good enough. If it weren’t for her, I don’t know that I’d h
These hot summer days call for the best sandwich of the summer, the BLT, in all its sweet, summer tomato glory. The only thing with BLT’s is, bacon is kind of annoying to cook. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE bacon, and cooking it in the oven isn’t all that messy, but you still have to deal with the baco
You’ve had baked feta pasta, but what about baked Boursin pasta?!

For today’s super summery pasta, we’re borrowing a lil secret from one of the world’s pasta favs… carbonara. This super simple sauce is blended with fresh, sweet corn, lemon, garlic, and some usual carbonara suspects to give us a luscious, creamy, and higher protein sauce that is as light as it is s
Overstuffed twice baked potatoes might be my new love language. More is definitely more when it comes to these babies, loaded with all the good stuff – broccoli, chicken, cheese, cajun seasoning, and some store-bought craft Alfredo sauce – for an easy, incredibly delicious and nutrient-packed potato
This creamy lemon and artichoke cacio e pepe-style pasta is a delicious twist on one of my favorite Italian dishes. Bursting with vibrant lemon, sweet roasted garlic, and tangy artichoke flavors, this pasta is made incredibly easy (and creamy) with the help of some store-bought, craft peppercorn cre
An issue I’ve always had with nachos is that they never seem to have enough of them covered in all the toppings. Enter: trash can nachos. The nachos that are layered with all the good stuff – tender, braised short ribs, creamy jalapeño queso, and freshies like avocado, pickled onion, scallion and Gr
Step aside, lettuce. We’ve got a crunchier, heartier gal in town, and she’s smothered in salty cheese, garlicky high-fiber crunchies, and possibly the best Caesar dressing of all time. She’s here to stay, she’s here to slay, she’s here to save the day.
