Spicy Korean Pork Lettuce Wraps

Grilled Spicy Korean Pork Lettuce Wraps

Lettuce wraps are one of those things that I love having almost weekly. There are so many possibilities for flavor combinations and I especially love using lettuce wraps with spicy food because of the crisp freshness that the lettuce gives the dish. While you are probably most familiar with Asian Chicken Lettuce wraps, I love using wraps in other recipes as well. Spicy Korean pork is one of those foods that has an undeniable flavor and is actually really easy to create at home too. These delicious grilled spicy Korean pork lettuce wraps are a great weeknight dinner option and will quickly become a favorite dish in your house.

Spinach and Beef Lasagna

Spinach and Beef Lasagna

This post was edited from it’s original post.

My love language is definitely in the form of pasta. Just give me all of the pasta, red sauce based pastas in particular, and I’ll love you forever. True story, just ask my hubby. My dream is go visit Italy and cook alongside an Italian grandma, and let her teach me her ways. I would be the happiest camper and my life would be complete. Wouldn’t that be amazing? One day…but anyway, speaking of pasta and Italian dishes, lasagna is one of those dishes that for some reason I only make for special occasions. I am not sure why, because it really isn’t that hard and it freezes beautifully too which makes it perfect for meal prepping. I came up with the recipe a few years ago when I got a hankering for lasagna and the result was out of this world. It's layered with flavor and I even lightened it up just slightly so you can feel a little better about lasagna night at your house any weekday! My spinach and beef lasagna is sure to delight the bellies of all your family and friends and it will soon become one of your favorite pasta recipes to make guaranteed.

The Best Chicken Tacos

I am not sure when Taco Tuesday became a thing, but I am totally on board. For one I love tacos (duh), but secondly I love that every week I can use this day as an excuse to make some sort of taco and I don’t have to think about what’s for dinner! The only thing I have to decide is do I want steak tacos, fish tacos, taco salads, or chicken tacos! Not a bad problem to have right? I have been meaning to share my chicken taco recipe and and am finally getting around to it! This recipe is not only full of flavor, but it can be ready in 30 minutes any night of the week! I have created the BEST chicken tacos and you are going to love adding this recipe into your taco rotation!
