Rice Bowls
My family LOVES these rice bowls! They are one of our super easy go-to meals! Not only is it great for families, but it's a perfect meal for large groups, or girls camp! It's a crowd pleaser! I love that you have rice, veggies and meat all in one bowl!

Creamy White Chicken Chili
Cooking the frozen chicken thighs in the pressure cooker simplifies everything! If you'd rather use fresh chicken thighs or chicken breasts, just cut the chicken in 1-inch cubes and saute with the onion in a large cast iron dutch oven. Either way works great!

White Chocolate Cinnamon Popcorn
This popcorn is addictive! It's sweet, crunchy and has the flavors of a cinnamon roll! Thanks to my friend Natasha, I'm hooked on it!
1/2 cup popcorn kernels
1 cup brown sugar
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup corn syrup
1/2 cup butter
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla
12 oz bag of Ghiradelli white chocolate, or almond bark
Line 2 cookie sheets with heavy duty tin foil. Preheat oven to 250ยบ. Pop popcorn kernels into a large bowl. Separate out any unpopped kernels.
In a 2 quart glass bowl, combine brown sugar & cinnamon. (Do not use a plastic bowl - it will melt. Trust me!) Stir until combined. Chop butter into pieces and place on top of sugar mixture. Pour corn syrup on top. Microwave for 30 seconds to soften the butter a little. Stir to combine. Microwave for 2 more minutes. Remove and stir. Microwave for another 2 minutes.
Remove from microwave and stir in vanilla and baking soda. When combined, pour over popcorn and stir until all the popcorn is coated.
Spread popcorn onto the 2 foil-lined cookie sheets. Place in the oven and bake for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. Stir carefully so you don't rip the tin foil.
Spread out waxed paper or parchment paper on your counter. When the popcorn is done baking, pour the popcorn onto the paper so it can cool.
Melt white chocolate in the microwave using 50% power, stirring every 30 seconds until melted. Drizzle over the popcorn.
When the popcorn has cooled, break into pieces and enjoy!
