How to Make Easy Salad Rolls with Pantry Staples

The hardest part, honestly, is chopping the veggies, but even that feels meditative if you put on some music. And the flavor? Pure restaurant realness, only fresher.

Bacon Wrapped Chicken on the Grill: Family Dinner Made Simple

The marinade is what makes Grilled Bacon Wrapped Chicken so tasty. It keeps the chicken juicy and adds flavor that plain salt and pepper can’t match. The meat stays moist every time, while the bacon crisps up perfectly without drying out the chicken. Chef Lisa Tran, who’s run a barbecue joint for years, said even a short soak lets the flavors sink in so the chicken isn’t bland inside. Letting the chicken sit for at least 30 minutes—longer if you can—gives the best taste. You’ll notice sweet and savory flavors in every bite. If you’ve never marinated before grilling, you’re missing out on a much better meal.

Loaded Baked Potato and Buffalo Chicken Casserole with Simple Ingredients

Loaded Baked Potato and Buffalo Chicken Casserole brings together crispy potatoes, spicy buffalo chicken, and lots of gooey cheese in one simple dish. The potatoes bake up golden around the edges (they almost remind me of those fries that never last long at the table), while the chicken stays tender under a blanket of melted cheddar. You can expect plenty of bold buffalo flavor, but it’s balanced by the creaminess of the cheese and a hint of sour cream. When I tried this recipe at home, the whole kitchen smelled like a sports bar on game day, and everyone ended up going back for seconds. For extra crunch, toss on some green onions or bacon bits right before serving.
