🍂Soup season is sneakin’ up on us, y’all, and I’m here for it!
There’s something about this time of year that makes a kitchen full of comfort food feel especially good. Today was all about helping a client get ahead of the week with a little variety and a whole lot of deliciousness!
Here’s what I cooked up:
🥣 Hearty Sirloin & 10-Vegetable Soup: a big, generous batch of the kind of soup that makes you look forward to lunchtime.
🍚 Chicken & Roasted Purple Sweet Potato Bowls: with kale, blistered cherry tomatoes, snap peas, brown rice and quinoa, finished with a maple almond butter tamari sauce.
🌮 Southwest Black Angus Beef Taco Bowls: seasoned ground beef, sweet corn, black beans, cherry tomatoes, brown rice and quinoa, with chipotle lime crema for drizzling.
And because a little prepping today can make a busy week so much easier, I stocked their freezer with a couple of ready-to-bake sheet pan dinners:
🥦 Teriyaki chicken & broccoli with carrots, snap peas and bell peppers.
🍁 Maple Dijon-marinated pork tenderloin with butternut squash, Brussels sprouts and cranberries.
This is just one of the reasons I love being a chef.
It isn’t just about preparing good food… It’s about giving my clients something incredibly valuable back: their precious TIME.
It’s knowing that after a long day, they don’t have to start dinner from scratch, wonder what they’re going to eat for lunch, or spend their weekend meal prepping for the week ahead. They can walk into the kitchen, choose something nourishing & delicious, and get on with the parts of life they actually *want* to be spending time on.
I love preparing meals that feel comforting without being boring, wholesome without sacrificing flavor, and thoughtfully prepared to make everyday life just a little easier.
Because good food should do more than fill your plate. It should make your life better. And if soup season is sneakin’ up on us, consider this your reminder that your future self would probably love a refrigerator full of ready-to-eat meals. 😉
