Dinner

Sometimes, comfort food is all that one needs on a night—A food that is sticky, heavy, and full of taste. For me, this is the Cheesy Pizza Ravioli Bake.

The first time I baked this Chicken Burrito Casserole Bake, I was genuinely doubting – Can it actually be a burrito? Spoiler: it’s much better. You obtain the burrito taste, the smoky, spicy, cheesy goodness—but without the complexity…

I’m not even going to kid with you—that is one of the meals I reach for when all I want is something comforting and reminiscent of home.

I made the Zucchini Rice Stuffing Casserole without thinking of its ultimate comfort food status; I thought to myself that it could only be a standard zucchini-rice combo: how special could it possibly become? It just surprised the socks off me. A hearty-light-crunchy-creamy concoction in all of the delightful smells that engulfed Sunday afternoons in…
