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

Greek Turkey Bowls
I'm a seasoning hoarder. I love to pick up new spice blends whenever I can. That means my spice cabinet is overstuffed and overflowing with seasoning. Slap Ya Mama is one of my favorites. I also love Trader Joe's Green Goddess seasoning. A regular Italian seasoning is fine, too. But one of my absolute FAVORITES… Continue reading Greek Turkey Bowls
Southwestern Turkey Lettuce Wraps
I have become obsessed with turkey roasts at the grocery store. They are usually nestled in with the whole turkeys in the poultry section of the store. They're much smaller than a whole turkey (duh) and they are cheaper (not by pound, but cheaper than buying a whole turkey). I had never noticed them before… Continue reading Southwestern Turkey Lettuce Wraps
Mexican Meatloaf
Meatloaf is one of those food items that just doesn't photograph well. I've made dozens of different meatloaf recipes over the years, but most of the time I don't blog about them because the pictures came out looking, well, like crap. It doesn't matter if it was the best thing I'd ever had! When the… Continue reading Mexican Meatloaf
General Tso’s-Style Ground Chicken
If you love making your own Chinese food at home, stick around until the end. It's -2 degrees here in Oklahoma and it's now been more than a week since I left the house. The Mobile Meals program I volunteer with has been closed. I'm working from home so I don't need to drive into… Continue reading General Tso’s-Style Ground Chicken
Honey Garlic Turkey Meatballs
Meatballs are a real treat, but a real pain to make. You've got to get your hands dirty to mix everything together. You get them dirty again by rolling them up into balls. Then you've got the extraordinary task of cooking them---are you going to fry or bake them? Will they be cooked through and… Continue reading Honey Garlic Turkey Meatballs
Turkey & Wild Rice Salad
I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas! Our small, pandemic-fied Christmas meant it was just me and my husband over the holidays. I don't really know how to just cook for two, so I have a TON of leftover right now. I've been repurposing them when I can. My husband will be eating Shepherd's… Continue reading Turkey & Wild Rice Salad
Papa Verde Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
I'm all about comfort foods right now. Potatoes, pasta, cookies, you name it. This whole "end of the world" thing has got me feeling a certain type of way. I know we should all be about eating healthy right now since most of us are homebound, but it's really hard given the circumstances. I'm having… Continue reading Papa Verde Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
Turkey Fajita Kabobs
Today we ran a story about every state's most favorite "bad" movie. We're talking those guilty pleasures...those movies that are so bad they're good (or at least you enjoy them). Wild Wild West, Batman & Robin, and The Emoji Movie were most state's favorite bad movies. But Oklahoma had one that no other state had...… Continue reading Turkey Fajita Kabobs
Thai Turkey Salad
There's one weird quirk about me and food. I can't eat anything that's blue. I mean unusually blue---I'm not talking about blueberries or blue crab. I'm talking neon-blue-ish. Remember many moons ago when Heinz released blue, green and purple ketchups? I couldn't bring myself to eat the stuff, even if it did taste exactly like… Continue reading Thai Turkey Salad
