Oklahoma City has really seen a Renaissance of their food scene. It's something I try to hype up as much as possible---because outsiders don't give OKC a second look when it comes to our culinary abilities. There are no Zagat ratings here, every food magazine EVER just talks about how great Austin's restaurants are (insert side-eye… Continue reading Spanish Chicken and Potato Roast

Sun-Dried Tomato Chicken with Garlic Mashed Potatoes
My circadian rhythm is all off. Waking up at 10 p.m. and going to work at midnight is a lot weirder than I thought it was going to be. I mean, don't get me wrong, I knew it was going to be weird. And difficult. And slightly depressing. But I didn't think it was going to be this hard… Continue reading Sun-Dried Tomato Chicken with Garlic Mashed Potatoes
Greek Chicken Salad
In a few weeks, I'll become a creature of the night. I'll be working the graveyard shift. What fun! You may be saying to yourself, sarcastically. Well, the crazy hours do come with a promotion, and a shift in my career. I'll be trading in my camera for a computer, my photographer title for producer. I… Continue reading Greek Chicken Salad
Chicken Banh Mi Tacos
There are only about 1,000 different taco places here in OKC. Tacos are currently Oklahoma City's "it" food, if you know what I mean. Hey---I'm not complaining. I love tacos. My current taco obsession is Torchy's down in Norman. Their tuna tacos are out of this world. I don't make tacos as much anymore and I… Continue reading Chicken Banh Mi Tacos
Sheet Pan Bratwurst & Pepper Sandwiches

No sunburns, no major injuries, and only a few itchy bug bites later---and I'm back to living in the modern world. It was nice getting away from it… Continue reading Sheet Pan Bratwurst & Pepper Sandwiches
Spicy Oven-Fried Ranch Chicken
You ever feel like you could just sleep the day away? Just take one long nap and spend the whole day in bed? That's how I feel right now. After working some really whacky hours all week, I just want to crawl in bed and stay there all weekend. Unfortunately, I can't do that...I've got… Continue reading Spicy Oven-Fried Ranch Chicken
Herb & Garlic Pork Roast with Honey Mustard Sauce
Since Rob & I have cut down on the red meat in our diet, I've had to adapt in the kitchen. That doesn't mean we don't still have the occasional juicy steak (I am from Texas), but we try to limit it to only a few times a month. As a Texan, cutting out red meat… Continue reading Herb & Garlic Pork Roast with Honey Mustard Sauce
