This Creamy Chicken, Broccoli, and Orzo Skillet is the perfect quick and easy one pan dinner!

Ingredients

  • Chicken – I used rotisserie chicken to speed up the process, but you can also dice up a chicken breast and cooked it after the onion but before you add in the orzo and broth.
  • Oil – I almost always use avocado or olive oil when cooking, but you can swap for whatever oil you have on hand.
  • Onion – diced finely adds flavor to the dish.
  • Broccoli – I used frozen, but fresh works great too!
  • Orzo – you can swap out for rice here, but the cook time will need to be adjusted
  • Heavy Cream – just a touch to add creaminess
  • Cheese – I used cheddar, but any of your favorites would be great
  • Seasonings – salt, pepper, and Italian seasonings.

How to Make Chicken and Broccoli Casserole

  • In a large skillet add oil and onion. Cook until onion begins to become soft and translucent.
  • Add in orzo, cooked chicken, chicken broth, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 10 minutes. Stirring occasionally.
  • Once orzo is soft stir in heavy cream and shredded cheese. Stir until well combined and cheese is melted.

Comment GARDEN for a full break down of my watering system and how I put it together. 

Garden hack you didn’t know you needed 🌱💧

I added a super simple PVC watering system to my raised beds and it has made watering SO much easier (and way more efficient).

Perfect for hot summer days, busy schedules, or if you just want a low-maintenance garden setup.

Save this for later + let me know if you want the full how-to! 👇🏼

Comment RECIPE for all the food details! 

Girls day, but make it a little messy, a little creative, and a lot delicious. 

I hosted the sweetest paint + pot afternoon with my friends. Just us, some blank pots, and zero pressure to be “good” at anything except having fun. 

We painted, we laughed, we caught up on life… and of course, we ate really well:
🍋 Lemon blueberry cake 
🍯 Garlic honey chicken with fresh peach salsa 
🥙 Greek salad hummus bites 

It’s wild how something this simple can fill your cup so much. No big production, just intentional time together, and honestly, we need more of that.

10/10 recommend hosting your girls, even if it’s not perfect. Especially if it’s not perfect 🤍

Who’s coming next time? 🫶

Comment BURGER for all the recipe details. 

Buttery croissants, juicy beef, melty cheese, and caramelized onions, this Croissant Burger is your sign to upgrade burger night.

Crispy on the outside, soft and flaky on the inside, and loaded with flavor in every bite. Once you try burgers on croissants, there’s no going back.

Made this on the @blackstoneproducts and it turned out so good for an easy weeknight dinner.

Save this for your next cookout and let me know if you’re team croissant bun 👇

Episode 6 of building my dream garden 🌱

This week
Episode 6 of building my dream garden 🌱

This week felt like a big one… we filled the beds (finally 🙌), built a trellis for the tomatoes, and got so much in the ground. Carrots, radishes, potatoes, and onions are officially planted, and I tucked strawberries into my @greenstalkgarden vertical planter which I’m way too excited about 🍓

The best part? Seeing what’s already thriving! Raspberries, peas, chives, and garlic are doing their thing and reminding me why I started all of this in the first place.

Slowly but surely, it’s all coming together 🤍
