If you have been following me on Instagram then you know that I am 38 weeks pregnant with twins. (Still can’t quite wrap my head around that some days.) Yep. Today I have reached 38 weeks. And yes I’m 5 foot 3 and no I never thought I’d make it this far with these wiggly little babies inside of me. Not for lack of trying, I really really wanted to make it to 38 weeks. I just know that something like 60 percent of twins are born before 36 weeks so I tried my best to face the reality that they’d most likely be making an early debut -packed my hospital bags at 30 weeks and never looked back.

Yet here we are. 38 weeks. And we meet these children tomorrow. (Want to see pics of these twinzies?? Follow my brand new IG account where I’m sharing snippets of my life behind the blog – including one million pictures of our gender-neutral nursery.)

Okay but there’s a reason I’m sharing this sriracha orange beef with you on this exact day. It’s sort of… symbolic? You know I love me some spicy food. (Such as my Honey Sriracha Chicken, and Easy Taco Casserole, and Honey Chipotle Chicken Crispers.) But people are scaring me because they say that spicy food upsets babies tummies. People. I NEED spicy food in my life! I have literally been eating extra spicy everything the past few weeks because 1) I love it and 2) what if this is my last-spicy-supper ya know??

The struggle is real.

So this dish, it’s a celebration. Of all things spicy and delicious in every way. Oh and also a celebration of one-pan clean up and less than 30 minutes of cooking time. Yeahhhhh baby!
