Well, did you learn how to roast a whole chicken this weekend? I smiled and sipped wine on Friday night, thinking that you would be prepping to roast a chicken this weekend. Is that creepy? I just want to be in your kitchens with you, that’s all! I was hoping you roasted a chicken using my recipe, dusted off your cast iron skillet to make my carrot-beet fritters, and that you now have leftover chicken in your fridge....

While it feels a little sacrilegious to convert the beef roast recipe of my youth into something for the Instant Pot mini, I couldn’t resist the thrill of shaving down the cooking time. In just 30 minutes, friends, I have the taste of my childhood: instant pot beef roast! My mom cooked her beef roast in the slow cooker, like every other 80s moms, of course. After loading up the crock with a marbled chuck roast, potatoes and carrots, she sprinkled on a packet of French onion soup mix and liberally doused some red wine before locking on the lid....

Chicken Fried Steak Recipe with Gravy This is my all time favorite Southern meal: Chicken fried steak with brown gravy and mashed potatoes. If you’ve never had this delicious meal, pull up a chair and let me share it with you. Chicken fried steak is a cube steak dipped in a buttermilk batter, followed by a dusting of flour, and then fried in a cast iron skillet. The drippings in the pan are then used to make brown gravy....

With this quick and easy recipe, you can have dinner on the table for the whole family in less than an hour! See more of my favorite Chicken Casserole Recipes here! Chicken Enchilada Casserole is the ultimate easy one-dish recipe when you’re craving chicken enchiladas. Our family is always up for Mexican dishes, and this is one of our favorites. You can customize this recipe by adding some heat or choosing your favorite toppings....

It’s one of those fusion recipes, that just sticks with you once you make it. Just like Pakistani style batata harra, you guys are going to love this! I am talking a blast of flavor happening right in your mouth. Without further ado, here’s the recipe Putting together Loaded Chicken Tikka Nachos When we talk about toppings, you know we are basically talking about dumping stuff on top of tortilla chips right?...

Recipe first posted on Spend With Pennies. It’s cookie time! This is one of my favorite times of the year to be in the kitchen. It’s cold out, and all I want is to cozy up with a cup of coffee or hot chocolate and some homemade baked goods. Any cookie, brownie, bread or muffin will do, just pass me the carbs and something warm to sip. Although I’m not a big fan of overly cutesy Christmas treats myself, now that I have kids, I’m staring to come around....

Did I say we were taking a break from desserts for two? Who let me say that? What’s wrong with you guys? You know I can’t keep my mind away from sweets! I do have more fun dinner for two recipes to share with you this month, but I didn’t think you would mind if I popped in and share the most perfect, soft, chewy sugar cookie first. So, coconut sugar....

You’re looking at my new resolution to stop eating leftover kid food and scraps from my kids’ plates for my meals. I take incredible care of my kids by putting a lot of thought into the meals they consume, so why don’t I do this for myself? Why do I make sure my kids’ meals each have protein, a carb, a fruit, and a vegetable, but I don’t take care of myself in this same way?...

When I wrote my citrus buttermilk pudding cakes recipe, I intended for it to be adapted to your citrus loving needs. I’ve made a few versions of it myself, including lime, lemon cream, and tangerine. All delicious. A few weeks ago, I brought home a 10 pound bag of oranges from a trip to Southern California. I immediately started dreaming up orange desserts for y’all. The vanilla-orange flavor of a creamsicle popped into my head, and I was instantly reminded of the days when the Schwan man would come to our neck of the woods....

Let me just say that when I started planning and testing crockpot chicken wings for this post, my husband couldn’t have been happier. For me? The easiest to cook and eat usually wins out. That means boneless chicken breasts, ground beef, other boneless meats that are easily prepared. Things you can almost cook blindfolded (though I don’t recommend that!). So what I do when I’m faced with something I want to make well, but always want to make easily?...

If you’re a chocolate lover like me, you’ll love Mom’s Double Chocolate Chip Cookies, Reese’s Double Chocolate Cookies, and 4 Ingredient Double Chocolate Cookies (Chocolate Cake Mix Cookies)! These chocolate cookies are made with melted chocolate, cocoa powder, and chocolate chips (or chunks, if that’s your thing!). They are insanely fudgy and, honestly, a little over the top. I don’t know about you, but I love a soft, chewy cookie....

See the step by step recipe down in the recipe card. Ham is one of our favorite proteins around here, but we usually only cook them around the holidays! Every time I dig into this Baked Honey Ham I wonder why I don’t make it more often (because I could happily eat the leftovers for a week and not tire of it!), and then a few more months pass. We especially love it with a side of these Roasted Potatoes and Carrots or these Cream Cheese Mashed Potatoes!...

Looking for more easy chicken breast recipes? Try my Marry Me Chicken Breast, these Baked Tuscan Chicken Breasts, or this Creamy Garlic Chicken Breast. I don’t know about you, but Chicken Florentine to me sounds like a super fancy meal that a cook would spend a ton of time on. Right? Wrong. 😉 If there is one thing I love, it’s a dinner recipe that looks and sounds like you spent a lot of time on it but it’s actually really easy to make....

This recipe was shared first on Spend With Pennies. Don’t tell anyone, but I’ll take a warm fruit dessert with ice cream (Strawberry Rhubarb Crisp, Berry Cherry Crisp or Slow Cooker Caramel Apple Pudding Cake will suit me just fine!) over chocolate any day. I feel like that must mean I’m getting old 😉 This Pineapple Upside Down Cake is based off of my Apple Upside Down Cake recipe, with the same classic, moist vanilla 8-9″ cake serving as the base....

Puff pastry and I have had our moments. I don’t have many puff pastry recipes on The Recipe Rebel yet, even though I love it and love how easy it can make an impressive dessert or even quiche. But with this danish? Well let’s just say I had to practice a few times (and this video is super helpful!). The first time I was trying my hand at some mini puff pastry braids, I thought it would be so simple that I would just make a video right away....

If you love this fruity dessert, you’ll love this Rainbow Bagel Fruit Pizzas, these fun Fruit Pizza Cookies from my friend Amy, and my Cream Cheese Fruit Dip: 3 Ways! This juicy Fruit Pizza is the perfect dessert for every occasion. Serve it at a birthday party, baby shower, at potlucks, summer BBQs, or just your weekly movie night! It’s always a crowd-pleaser, and you can prep it ahead of time too....

Enjoy more of the very best pork tenderloin recipes like Honey Garlic Pork Tenderloin, Grilled Pork Tenderloin and Air Fryer Pork Tenderloin. I wanted to keep this Slow Cooker Pork Tenderloin recipe simple, but I also like to add a ton of flavor. I’ve done this with a garlic herb rub and a honey balsamic glaze – it’s sweet, savory and a little tangy! Using the Crockpot does something very special to pork tenderloin....

See the step by step recipe video down in the recipe card. This post is generously sponsored by Canola Eat Well and I was compensated for my time in creating this recipe. Thank you for supporting those that make The Recipe Rebel possible! Summer grilling season is here and we are so excited! While we enjoy our share of burgers and hot dogs, we spend so much time cooking outside in the summer that we love to find new ways to mix it up....

I’m here for you, friend. And I come bearing chocolate. Chocolate sour cream break-up cake, to be exact. This mini cake serves one newly single lady. Or, one recently unattached man. Or, one sad chick. Or, one melancholy dude. There’s no better way to move onward and upward than with chocolate. The cake is made in a 6" cake pan. It’s what I use for all of my mini cakes for two....

We’re cutting it a bit close here (Easter is just a week away!), but I still needed to share this Instant Pot Ham recipe. I honestly wait and wait until the hams start popping up in grocery stores (we’re talking what I like to call “real” ham, or bone-in ham) — the whole family loves ham and I love that it’s so easy to cook. If you’re hosting this Easter (or Thanksgiving, or Christmas…), this pressure cooker ham is really the way to go....
