What You Need for Korean Beef Rice Bowls

• Boneless Ribeye or Top Sirloin: These tender cuts of beef stay juicy and flavorful when sliced thin and marinated. Ribeye adds richness from its marbling, while sirloin gives a leaner but still tender option.
• Soy Sauce: The salty, umami base of the marinade. It seasons the beef deeply and helps tenderize it while balancing sweetness and spice.
• Brown Sugar: Adds a subtle molasses sweetness that caramelizes during cooking, creating that signature glossy, flavorful coating.
• Sesame Oil: Brings warmth and nuttiness to the dish, rounding out the savory-sweet balance. Be careful…a little goes a long way!
• Garlic: Essential for depth and aroma — it infuses the beef with classic Korean BBQ flavor.
• Ginger Root: Adds a bright, zesty note that cuts through the richness of the beef and complements the soy and sesame.
• Mirin: A sweet rice wine that enhances umami and adds a gentle tang. It also helps the marinade cling to the meat.
• Korean Red Pepper Flakes: Adds the signature Korean heat and depth. Gochujang can be used as a substitute which gives extra richness and a touch of sweetness, while flakes keep it lighter.
• Vegetable Oil: Used for searing the beef quickly at high heat. It ensures caramelization without burning the sauce.

Cooking filet mignon can feel a little intimidating because no one wants to mess up an expensive steak. But here’s the truth: once you know how to cook filet mignon the right way, it’s actually one of the easiest, most forgiving cuts of beef you can make at home.

No grill required, no fancy chef skills needed, just a simple method that works every single time. Tender, juicy, restaurant-quality filet mignon made right in your own kitchen.

In college there were only a couple of restaurants and quickly Texas Roadhouse became my favorite. A Dallas filet, loaded baked potato, no sour cream and house salad with ranch. It was my go-to and I’ve never forgotten that Dallas filet!

Over the years, I have become such a home body though. Is that normal? Once you become “middle-aged”, hitting the town starts to lose it’s appeal? Is that thing? Well, it’s a thing for me, and going out for Valentine’s Day along with every other human just sounds blah! So I’m cooking a fancy (but so easy) dinner at home again this year. Filet mignon it is! All the fancy restaurants can eat their heart out!

What You Need to Cook Filet Mignon at Home

You only need a few simple ingredients to add flavor to the filets, a good cast iron skillet and a pair of tongs. It really is that easy! Oh, a meat thermometer is very helpful too if you have one!

Ingredients You’ll Need

• Unsalted Butter: Melted into the pan at the end for basting, adding richness and that classic steakhouse flavor.
• Garlic: Cloves infuse the butter with savory flavor as the steak finishes cooking.
• Fresh Rosemary: A

What is Prime Rib?

Standing Rib Roast and Prime Rib Roast are the same exact same thing. It’s just that different people call them different things. A prime rib is a cut of beef from the primal rib, one of the nine cuts of beef. While the entire rib section comprises ribs six through twelve, a standing rib roast may contain anywhere from two to seven ribs, just depending on what you buy as there are options!

Ingredients You’ll Need

People love the tender, mouthwatering beef but for me that’s not even the best part. I’m all about the outside. It’s all caramelized and packed full of flavor. I’m telling you, it’s like the burnt ends on a brisket. It’s so, so good!!!! Here is everything you’ll need to deliver that flavor:

• Standing Rib Roast, Prime Rib: The star cut—rich, juicy, and tender.
• Kosher Salt: Draws out moisture and seasons deeply.
• Black Pepper: Enhances flavor and adds warmth.
• Butter: Build an aromatic crust.
• Garlic: Helps crisp the exterior while keeping it juicy.

Seems too simple, right?! Now let’s see how it’s done…

Healthy Thai Peanut Salad with Grilled Flank Steak

This vibrant Healthy Thai Peanut Salad with Grilled Flank Steak is a protein-packed dish bursting with bold, fresh flavors. Topped with a creamy homemade Thai peanut dressing, it’s the perfect balance of healthy and satisfying! Perfect for lunch or dinner!

Love the rich, nutty flavors of Pad Thai (Thai peanut noodles)? You’re in for a treat! Skip the pasta and give this Healthy Thai Peanut Salad with Grilled Flank Steak a try—it’s a fresh, feel-good twist on a classic favorite.

I can’t stand thinking up a healthy dinner idea every day! It’s exhausting. Cade isn’t much help either (sorry, Cade), and even brainstorming quick dinner recipes can feel like a chore. Throw in the “healthy” factor, and I’m already over it. That’s exactly why I came up with this Healthy Thai Peanut Salad with Grilled Flank Steak. It’s the result of a little rule I’ve been testing out over the past year.

When we started getting more and more requests for healthy dinner recipes, especially quick ones, I knew we needed to rethink things. Not just for adults, but for busy families juggling everything life throws at them.

So one day, as Cade and I were hashing this out, a light bulb went off: instead of stressing about brand-new recipes, why not start with dishes we already love and simply swap out the unhealthy ingredients for better, feel-good options? And guess what? It worked! This salad is proof that healthy can be delicious, simple, and totally doable! Even on a busy weeknight.

How to Make Your Favorite Recipe Healthy

Our new rule is simple: start with a favorite recipe, add more fruits and veggies, and swap out sugars and processed ingredients for healthier alternatives.

It’s easier than you’d think! For example, we took a classic lasagna recipe and made a few clever changes. We used thinly sliced zucchini instead of pasta and cottage cheese instead of ricotta. The result? A dish so good that no one even noticed the swaps. It all bakes together perfectly, and the zucchini melts right in, making it an effortless upgrade.

Who says healthy eating can’t be sneaky and delicious?
