Main Dishes

Welcome to my favorite main dish recipes! My style is simple and delicious, and I cook for a family of four (2 adults, 2 small kids). So it has to feed everybody!

You'll find all sorts of main dishes here. I do a ton of chicken recipes, Mexican, Instant Pot, one pot meals and so much more.

Be sure and let me know if you make any of my recipes! I hope you enjoy them as much as we have. 💖
