There's nothing like a good ol' breakfast casserole to kickstart your day. Breakfast casseroles are usually relegated to the holidays, but I'm not one to stick with tradition. I love to make them on Sundays and then eat the leftovers throughout the rest of the week. You end up getting plenty of hearty breakfast to… Continue reading Cheesy Hashbrown Breakfast Casserole

Greek Vegetable Flatbread
Since I started working a normal human shift (7am-4pm), I've been leaning heavily on cold lunches to get me through the day. I've never really taken a lunch break before. When I worked nightside (2pm-11pm) I would run to the break room, heat up my dinner, then go back to my desk to eat. Now… Continue reading Greek Vegetable Flatbread
Pesto Chicken Spaghetti
It's that time of year when I want to be outside for every waking moment. The temperatures are incredible. The sun is magnificent. The birds are chriping and singing and building nests. The tulips and irises are blooming and creating a spectacular blanket of color across the Oklahoma countryside. The breeze---well, I could do without… Continue reading Pesto Chicken Spaghetti
Quesadilla Chicken Salad
I've never been one of those people who loved big chain restaurants. Applebee's was the place to go when I was in college (probably for their cheap, potent mixed drinks during Happy Hour) and yet it was a place I would never step foot in. Cheddar's opened when I was in junior high in my… Continue reading Quesadilla Chicken Salad
Meatball Chili Mac
Sometimes, you just need a little meatball in your life. All of the world's problems can be solved by meatballs. Spaghetti and meatballs. Swedish meatballs. Meatball subs. It's the ultimate comfort food and the best thing to turn a bad day into a good one. Whenever I'm feeling down, I'll turn to something with meatballs.… Continue reading Meatball Chili Mac
Crab Rangoon Casserole
There's one food I'll always cherish, no matter what: crab rangoon. I remember my best friend and I loading up on crab rangoon at our favorite Chinese restaurant when we were in high school and college. It was always our favorite part of the buffet, and we would savor every last creamy bite. My best… Continue reading Crab Rangoon Casserole
Sweet & Spicy Chili Noodles
I love experimenting with my husband's lunches. I don't mean I'm concocting some kind of weird things to put in his lunches like worms and dirt. I like to mix it up between the things he really likes, while occasionally slipping in something new for him to try. He likes a specific flavors and textures,… Continue reading Sweet & Spicy Chili Noodles
Vegetarian Shepherd’s Pie
There's nothing like a good shepherd's pie for dinner. I've made a dozen different versions and they are all better than the last. Shepherd's pie dates back for centuries, but it didn't get its name until the mid 1850's. Most shepherd's pies use ground beef or lamb which simmer in a thick, dark gravy with… Continue reading Vegetarian Shepherd’s Pie
Healthy Baked Ziti
I was greeted by an empty pasta aisle at the grocery store the other day. Macaroni, spaghetti, egg noodles, you name it...they were all gone. Not a pasta box or bag in sight. A few steps to the right and I found the cast-offs no one wanted: spinach pasta, whole wheat penne, and lentil pasta.… Continue reading Healthy Baked Ziti
Turkey Caprese Sandwiches
Where do you carry your stress? I always carry my stress in my neck. If I'm incredibly stressed out, my neck will hurt to no end. I've got a nice neck massager that I'll use until the thing falls apart on my worst days. It takes a lot to stress me out nowadays. I utilize… Continue reading Turkey Caprese Sandwiches
