Cheesy Baked Chicken Noodle Casserole

January 24, 2019 by funnyloveblog Leave a Comment

Have you watched Ugly Delicious?

This is kind of that. It’s the food we’re supposed to turn our noses up at, food of a different era, the dirty little secret of food. It’s a casserole with cream of mushroom AND cream of chicken soup, it’s not particularly attractive, and it’s utterly delicious.

I actually made this cheesy baked chicken noodle casserole years ago based on The Pioneer Woman’s recipe. I’ve made it off and on for the last ten or so years, usually pulling it out for family vacations or special events that call for easy comfort food. Specifically, I froze a batch of this when I was pregnant with both of my kids, and we had it on our first night home (the day they both were born) with each of them. So, to say that this casserole holds some meaning to me is an understatement.

The main meaning of this casserole is SALT AND CHEESE, but I’ve added lots of extra veggies in this version. We cook the noodles about halfway and then keep the veggies raw so that they don’t get too mushy when we bake the casserole. This does yield a little bit of a soupy casserole, but I find that to be delicious, and the casserole sets up once it sits a bit after baking.

Ugly or not, you absolutely want to eat noodles baked with chicken, cheese, vegetables, and a creamy gravy. Right? Right.

Lentil Bowls with Cauliflower and Tahini

January 17, 2019 by funnyloveblog Leave a Comment

Continuing our month of vegetarian choices! I’m being extra careful to not use words like “cheat, guilt, good, bad,” and so on. I think that thought pattern surrounding food can be so damaging, but also I agree that in terms of physical health there are foods that are better for our bodies than others, if we’re talking lentils vs cheetos.

Now, in terms of mental health or happiness or convenience? We could go on all day about those things.

But today, instead of my not wanting you to have “cheat days,” we ARE talking lentils. I love lentils, but even if you don’t I think you could stomach these. They are SO flavorful (because salt) and honestly I could eat a bowl of them on their own. We made this into a fun bowl with bright pink pickled onions, a shortcut gremolata, and toasty roasty cauliflower, one of my favorite substitutes for meat because when roasted it has just the best texture.

The idea for this came from an Instagram account Jay follows but he couldn’t show me a recipe or the actual account or image (?), so he described a picture to me and this is what I came up with. So, if you made some amazing cauliflower bowls and this feels like a copycat, tell me! And I’ll credit you if it was your original image.
