Food Trucks are a huge hit around here. They pop up at festivals, attend rally’s and cook offs, enter competitions and fill the bellies of those looking for unique dishes. I was introduced to pulled pork street tacos last summer at one such rally, and fell a bit in love! To clarify, I wanted pulled pork and figured the food truck I was waiting in line for could provide the meat I was craving. I planned to play it safe […]
Easy White Chicken Chili Soup Supreme
Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.Growing up, cornbread and chili was a staple. A pound of hamburger could feed a family with 6 kids thanks to all the beans. We may have ran each other out of the house and singed nose hairs once the beans “came calling” but we all loved chili! Oddly enough, it hasn’t been until recent years that I even heard of white chicken chili. But now, we almost prefer this easy white chicken chili over regular chili. Ever been in […]

Roasted Butternut Chicken Recipe – One Dish Dinner
Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.I should’ve taken a photo.

Weekly Dinner Menu Ideas
Disclaimer: A Proverbs 31 Wife uses Affiliate links and ads to support this site. Read full disclosure here.When I “shopped my pantry” for a few weeks, one of my goals was to create weekly dinner menu ideas that I could use in a pinch.

My recipe for enchilada sauce or red sauce is one of the last examples. It’s easy to make and we actually […]
