Simple Cherry Tomato Pasta
This simple Cherry Tomato Pasta is one of my favorite go-to easy meals for a weeknight dinner. I typically have majority of these ingredients on hand in my pantry and fridge which is always an extra bonus for super easy cooking. It is quick to throw together, and the family always loves it. Did I mention is makes great leftovers? If you try this recipe out, be sure to leave a comment. Or you can post it on Instagram and tag me! (@daniellemsheppard)
Chrissy Teigen's Chicken & Dumplings
These chicken and dumplings are to die for! Making the broth from scratch and letting it simmer for hours really takes this dish to another level of flavor. I wouldn’t classify this dish as being incredibly hard. The only tricky part (for me at least) was when it came to the dumplings and not over cooking them. Don’t worry, I’ll give you tips and tricks along the way to ensure yours will turn out fabulous!
Chrissy Teigen's Beef Stew & Cream Cheese Mashed Potatoes
Oooooo girl, this recipe for Sleep Time Stew by Chrissy Teigen is one of my all time favorite comfort meals!

Chrissy Teigen's Instagram BBQ Chicken Burgers
Chrissy Teigen did a cook with me on her Insta-Stories back in February of 2019 and made these BBQ Chicken Burgers. I screen-shoted (is that a word?) all the ingredients/steps she posted and tried these bad boys out..

Joanna Gaines' Beef Stew
My husband defiantly lives up to his Irish roots when it comes to obsessively loving beef and potatoes, so picking this beef stew to make was right up his alley. I’m not gonna lie to ya, I'm not the biggest beef fan but I figured I’d give this a whirl. Chrissy Teigen has a beef stew in her second cookbook called Sleepy Time Stew and it’s the freaking bomb. So what the hey, let’s give it a try.

Try not to be intimidated by this meal, it is really not that hard to achieve and freaking delicious! I can’t figure out what I like more, the stuffed goat cheese and cream cheese mixture or that it’s wrapped in prosciutto... ugh and don’t forget about the cherry tomatoes! Okay it’s all great.
Chrissy Teigen's Meatball Subs
Okay, real talk though.. These meatballs subs are the dinner meal you never knew you needed. Is it time consuming? Yes. Is it the simplest meal? No. But DAMNIT IT’S GOOD!

Chrissy Teigen's Orange Garlic-Honey Shrimp
Chrissy Teigen actually calls this dish just Garlic Honey Shrimp, no orange. The first time I made it, I re-looked at the cookbook title and thought, “why isn’t this called ORANGE honey shrimp!?!?”.
