A plate of roast beef, vegetables and mashed potatoes

A hearty serving of tender roast beef with a healthy side of slow-cooked vegetables served over a creamy bed of mashed potatoes is my idea of the perfect comfort food meal. Roast beef is what Sunday dinner dreams are made of, and it has always been a meal that makes me think of my family table growing up. Most people don’t think of roast beef when they think of healthy eating, but it really can be! This recipe is 399 calories per serving (and is complimented excellently by my lighter mashed red potatoes) and is only 9 net carbs per serving. I have included the instructions to make this roast beef in either the instant pot (quick and easy!), slow cooker (set it and forget it!) or in the oven (easy and old school!). I hope you get a chance to enjoy this delicious recipe around the table with your family!

Instant Pot Chicken and Orzo – Simple, Easy & Flavorful

A plate of instant pot chicken and orzo

A few days ago, I asked the members of Hungry Six’s Recipe Swap what type of kitchen gadget they just couldn’t live without. So many people love their Instant Pots! I already had an Instant Pot, and I had used it several times, to make things like my carnitas, but people were just raving about how they used theirs to make all kinds of things. Someone was saying that she made pasta in hers, and I started to have doubts. I mean, the pasta has to be overcooked and an awful texture, right? Anyways, I had some chicken that I needed to use and some orzo left from a failed recipe attempt. I decided to create something based on those two things. This Instant Pot Chicken and Orzo was born, and it is so easy and delicious!

Baked Sweet Chili Chicken Wings

Ever since I posted my Sweet Chili Chicken and Noodle Stir Fry, I have been working on another recipe using sweet chili sauce. I absolutely love the stuff, and it really compliments so many different foods. My husband is always asking for chicken wings, but I honestly avoid making them because I am just not crazy about them. I decided that maybe if I made wings using the sauce I love so much, maybe I would have a change of heart. So, I gave it a try, and these amazing Baked Sweet Chili Chicken Wings were born!
