Easy Stromboli
To say I'm addicted to Italian food is an understatement. I probably make more Italian dishes than anything else. Making a pasta entree is just second nature at this point. My husband and I love to make "homemade" pizzas. We utilize shortcuts for those, though, like using pre-made dough and sauce. As much as I… Continue reading Easy Stromboli
Gnocchi Bolonese
There's something extra special about comfort food. Whether it's a big batch of macaroni cheese, a slice of warm apple pie, or your favorite potato chip...comfort food will always help you out in bad, sad, or good times. The ultimate Italian comfort food is Bolonese. The slow-cooked meat sauce hits the spot whenever you need… Continue reading Gnocchi Bolonese
Ravioli Lasagna
Another day, another stay-at-home-and-work routine. I've got this new way of life down pat. I do the same things almost everyday so I can keep some sort of normalcy during this pandemic. I'll be staying home through at least the end of May, though that could change. I like working from home, but I'm ready… Continue reading Ravioli Lasagna
Caprese Stuffed Spaghetti Squash
I thought I was done experimenting with spaghetti squash. I thought I had done all that I could with that gourd. I've made spaghetti (obviously), chicken parm, alfredo, lo mein, primavera, BBQ chicken, cajun chicken, chicken piccata, chicken marsala...all with that bright yellow squash. What's left to do?! Well, make it Caprese-style, that's what's left.… Continue reading Caprese Stuffed Spaghetti Squash
Creamy Gnocchi & Sausage Skillet
There's a chance, albeit a brief, fleeting chance...that OKC gets its FIRST SNOW today! We'll get a trace amount. It probably won't stick to the ground. But I AM LIVING FOR IT. I've been beaming ear-to-ear since Monday. The clouds haven't stopped blanketing the sky since then, and it's been cold, drizzly and dreary...but THIS… Continue reading Creamy Gnocchi & Sausage Skillet
Sausage and Peppers Stuffed Meatloaf
If there is one thing you rarely see on my blog, it's meatloaf. It's not that I don't make meatloaf. It's a staple in my house. I love everything about the easy dinner meal. The problem with blogging about meatloaf is taking the pictures. Meatloaf just doesn't...look good. At all. Sometimes it will look like… Continue reading Sausage and Peppers Stuffed Meatloaf
Lasagna Stuffed Peppers
I feel like you could stuff a pepper with anything and it would taste good. I've done buffalo chicken & quinoa, Philly cheesesteak, and the classic version with ground beef and tomatoes. I mean, seriously. Can you think of something that wouldn't taste good stuffed into a pepper? Ice cream, probably. I don't think ice… Continue reading Lasagna Stuffed Peppers
Chicken Bruschetta Zoodles
Fresh, crispy vegetables. Sweet, ripe tomatoes. Grilled chicken. Summer is finally here, y'all, and I'm loving it. I'm sure in about 2 weeks I'll be completely over the wicked Oklahoma heat, but for now---I'm soaking up the sunshine, what little of it I actually see. I love summer produce. Everything from squash to cucumbers, tomatoes… Continue reading Chicken Bruschetta Zoodles
Chicken Caprese Stuffed Peppers
Rob and I took a brief road trip yesterday to visit his family in rural Oklahoma. The one hour drive was nice since the day was absolutely gorgeous. I made him take the "scenic" route on a little, dinky 2-lane highway instead of taking the interstate. Good decision, Colleen. Good decision. Oklahoma in spring has… Continue reading Chicken Caprese Stuffed Peppers
