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 CHEESECAKE for all the recipe details. 

One of my favorite things about making things homemade is getting to create something you wish existed in the world.

I wanted the nostalgic crunch of those strawberry cheesecake ice cream bars… but with raspberry and an actual cheesecake twist. So naturally I had to make it happen. 

And honestly? This might be one of those recipes that makes you stop after the first bite and think, where has this been my whole life?

Sweet, creamy, crunchy, raspberry perfection.

Would you try raspberry over strawberry? 👇

Episode 9 of the garden series and the garden is finally starting to fill in 🌱✨

This week I planted:�🌶️ Peppers with onions, cilantro and marigolds�🫘 Beans alongside potatoes and marigolds�🥒 Cucumbers with dill, carrots, and radishes�🌸 PLUS all the flowers — zinnias, dahlias, snapdragons, strawflower, celosia, and feverfew

I love companion planting because every plant has a purpose. Some help attract pollinators, some deter pests, and some simply help maximize space in the garden beds. And honestly… mixing veggies and flowers together just makes the garden feel magical. 🌼🐝

The vision is finally starting to come together and I cannot wait to see everything explode with growth over the next few weeks. 

Which plant are you most excited to watch grow this season? 👇

Tomato season is officially underway 🍅🌱

I finally got all of my tomato plants in the ground and filled the beds in with some of my favorite companion plants too! Not only do they help maximize space, but they also help attract pollinators, improve soil health, and keep pests away naturally. 

This year I’m planting:
✨ Basil – helps improve flavor + keeps pests away
✨ Marigolds – a garden must for pest control
✨ Onions – great companions for tomatoes
✨ Zinnias - not only are they pretty to look at, but they are great for attracting pollinators 

One of my favorite gardening tips is to never leave bare soil if you can help it. Filling in around your tomatoes makes the garden more productive AND prettier. 

Also, something I didn’t talk about is mulching my plants. I use grass clippings BEFORE my husband has done any kind of spraying on the lawn. This helps with moisture retention and controlling weeds! 

Now we wait for those summer tomato sandwiches 🍅

#ad | These Cowboy Burgers are a MUST this grilling season, and the ground beef I grabbed from my local @KrogerCo Family of Stores made them perfect for feeding a crowd.

Juicy, smoky, loaded with all the good stuff… aka the kind of burger that disappears the second it hits the table.

Save this for your next summertime cookout + drop “BURGER” 🍔  if you can’t wait to make these!
