Sometimes you can find really strange recipes in old cookbooks. Recipes like sausage bundt cakes, raisin and mayonnaise sandwiches, and jello molds with onions inside. None of those things sound appetizing, right? Of course not. But buried deep inside those old cookbooks, past the pages of jello molds and processed meats, you can find nuggets… Continue reading Green Rice Chicken

I'm a photojournalist for a local television station in OKC and love to cook (obviously). I'm four years removed from college (BA in Mass Communication) and I'm just trying to guide through my mid-twenties with a relative ease. We'll see how this goes!
Mediterranean Chicken Zoodle Salad
August is already off to a jam-packed start. We've been slammed at work over the last week and a half, and in a few days I'll be off on a vacation for a week and a half. To say it's needed is an understatement. It's not just work bogging me down right now, there are… Continue reading Mediterranean Chicken Zoodle Salad
Extra Pepper Chicken
Chinese takeout fills a really important niche in my life. If I'm feeling down, or feeling homebound, ordering Chinese will instantly put me in a good mood.

My mom always uses catfish nuggets to make fried catfish, and now I can see why. I bought nearly 3.5 pounds of catfish for less than… Continue reading Quick & Easy Catfish Wraps
Italian Country Breakfast Bake
I'm an advertising executive's dream. I get suckered into Instagram and Facebook ads all the time. I'll find myself swiping through pictures of things I never knew I needed for hours...oh, wait. I don't need them. It appears an advertisers influence over my purchasing skills is quite potent. The grocery store is no different. I… Continue reading Italian Country Breakfast Bake
Chicken & Greens Stir Fry
Sometimes, I get so in the mood when I'm cooking, I forget to put ingredients into a dish. Thankfully it's never happened with something essential to a recipe, like baking soda in a cake or eggs in a meatloaf...but I do have this tendency to leave out benign ingredients like garnishes or herbs. I left… Continue reading Chicken & Greens Stir Fry
