What is it with sheet pans? All of mine look like someone threw them into an incinerator, pulled them out, and threw them in again for good measure. I cannot keep a sheet pan in good working condition. Even the most silver, shiny Rachael Ray one I have turned into a dark black rectangle after… Continue reading Sheet Pan Balsamic Chicken & Vegetables

Rosemary Parmesan Pork Chops
TODAY IS THE DAY. Today is, hopefully, the transition into fall. After two straight weeks of endless sun and 90 degree temperatures, a cold front should blow in later this afternoon/evening. We'll get some storms, sure, but the exciting thing is the temperature dip---I hope. I'm ready to use my oven more. I'm ready to… Continue reading Rosemary Parmesan Pork Chops
Margherita Chicken & Zucchini
I tried something new today. I turned my morning routine upside down. I'm the poster child of routine-following. I do the same thing everyday at the same times: 9-10 a.m.: wake up. Immediately grab phone and peruse social media 10:30 a.m.: actually get out of bed. Try to write a blog post/watch TV. 11 a.m.:… Continue reading Margherita Chicken & Zucchini

They're easy to make, easy to… Continue reading Enchilada Meatballs

A sizzling hot plate of chicken fajitas with crispy peppers, onions and mushrooms was always a great dinner to be had in… Continue reading Sheet Pan Salmon Fajitas
Bang Bang Shrimp Bowls
If you look through ANY food boards on Pinterest, you'll be inundated with copycat 'bang bang' shrimp recipes. What is that, you ask? Well---I actually don't know. I've never even had bang bang shrimp before from any of the restaurants claiming to serve it. Even though I've never tried it, my mouth still waters everytime… Continue reading Bang Bang Shrimp Bowls
Texas Pot Roast
One of the reasons you rarely see beef recipes on my blog is because they're so gosh darn hard to photograph. I've got pictures upon pictures of meatloaf and meatball recipes that I can't use because they look, well, horrible. With beef having such a dark brown exterior, it does no good for pictures even… Continue reading Texas Pot Roast
