Cooking with Jack: Episode 4

Last night, my (Rachel’s) college kiddo Jack and I worked on one of the easiest and tastiest weeknight meals ever. He said he’ll probably make this once a week once he moves out.

4-Ingredient Sausage Rigatoni (known as Boursin Pasta in our house) takes only 20 minutes and really is one of those meals that anyone can make. We used fusilli pasta this time around.

Swipe through to see some of the things that I taught Jack this round.

1 - One of the keys to elevating this dish is using fresh herbs at the end, but they are totally optional. I have taught my kids over the years how to use knives, which is an essential skill in the kitchen. Note: I’m still growing in this skill!

2 - Secondly, I showed him how to make broccoli in a colander over the boiling pasta at the same time. This is one of those Mom Hacks I’ve been using for years to save time and make sure we have a veggie with the main dish.

3 - Leftovers of this pasta are great for days to come so it’s an awesome meal prep recipe as well.

Comment RECIPE and I will send it your way.

Cooking Lessons with Jack: Episode 3

Tonight we made a restaurant-quality main dish with 4 main ingredients. My college boy LOVES Boursin Chicken and has been asking to learn this one.

I quickly realized the biggest lesson to be taught was about food safety. It takes vigilance to avoid getting raw chicken juice on surfaces and to understand how to clean up when you do.

Another food safety lesson: chicken is done when it’s between 160-165 degrees F. A meat thermometer is your best friend for this. Or cut the middle make sure there’s no more pink.

Lastly, I forgot how hard it is for a newer cook to balance making multiple dishes at once. Together we got it done, though! 💪

Yep. I said it. 😅

Summer is HOT. My kitchen is HOT. And the last thing I want to do at 5pm is stand over a stove.

So a few years ago I stopped trying to cook every night in July and August — and started spending ONE afternoon a month filling my freezer instead.

And not just any meals. Dump-and-go Crock-Pot meals!

Now on the hottest, most chaotic summer nights? Dinner’s already done. Past me took care of it. 🙌

Freezer meal prep genuinely changed our summers. Less stress, less takeout, and I actually enjoy cooking again because I’m not doing it every. single. day.

Want to try it?

I put together a free 1-hour freezer prep session that walks you through making 6 dump-and-go crock pot meals — start to finish, in one hour. You’ll thank yourself all week long.

Comment Freezer Prep and I will send it on over right now!

These are all tossed with tender pasta and a rich, homemade ranch dressing that takes it to the next level.

The best part? It comes together in less than 30 minutes, so you spend less time in the kitchen and more time enjoying the backyard BBQ.
