I wanted to like this Chinese five-spice fried chicken, but it seemed to be missing a spark. It wasn’t the spice, it wasn’t the batter. It was just another fried chicken recipe. Before you…

Roasted Red Pepper Pasta

This is one of Liam’s favorite meals to eat and help us make in the kitchen. He loves a bowl of roasted red pepper pasta and we love it, too! Why do we love it so much? It’s easy to make, delicious, and when you’re bored of tomato-based sauce, this spices things up. To be honest, I was hesitant to make this. I love red peppers, however, the idea of…
