    The tastes of Thailand come together with under 10 ingredients in this Thai Coconut Shrimp Soup. You can swap chicken or tofu for the shrimp if you'd like!


    I added a few special ingredients to these Italian Pesto and Red Pepper Meatballs to make them tender and extra flavorful. You'll want to make extra and freeze them for another meal.

      I am loving the one-pan meals! It's so ideal for weeknights when nobody wants to do the dishes 😛
