This is it. Summer's last hoorah. Oklahoma is taking the deep dive with the arctic front coming in from Canada tonight. We're not going to get too cold, but we'll finally feel those fall-like temperatures. That means no more sandwiches, wraps and salads. Instead, all of my summer produce will quickly be replaced by fall… Continue reading End of Summer Salad

Grandma’s Cauliflower Salad
You have those cherished family recipes, right? Like the little brown piece of paper with a scribbled on recipe of Christmas sugar cookies? Or maybe a roast chicken recipe your mom has been making for decades? My family has loads of those beloved recipes. We've got my mom's potato salad, chicken fried steak, fried chicken,… Continue reading Grandma’s Cauliflower Salad
Pork Tenderloin Salad with Grilled Nectarines
You all probably know by now how obsessed I am with pork tenderloin. I've been buying it up in bulk at the grocery store lately because it has been on sale. That's why you've seen so many recipes on here using the delicious cut of pork. I couldn't find any regular, unflavored tenderoin at the… Continue reading Pork Tenderloin Salad with Grilled Nectarines
Steakhouse Spinach Salad
I've been perusing my enormouse collection of old cookbooks lately hoping something will inspire me. After scrolling through Pinterest for so long, all of the recipes start to look the same. My vast collection of cookbooks, though, is full of endless opportunities. I've got cookbooks from WWII, from the 60's, from celebrities like Vincent Price… Continue reading Steakhouse Spinach Salad
Persian Chicken Salad
We're starting to get into my favorite time of year: early summer. It's not too hot, not too cold, and thunderstorms are forecast for just about everyday of the week. It's the perfect weather to eat fresh fruit, sip on watermelon coolers, and eat a big bowl of salad for dinner. I've got a thousand… Continue reading Persian Chicken Salad
Mediterranean Couscous Salad
I'm still over here trying to use up all of my couscous. It's been weeks and the stuff never runs out! I've been getting creative in the kitchen trying to come up with ways to use the little pasta pearls. I've done main dishes, side dishes, and now salads. I refuse to buy any other… Continue reading Mediterranean Couscous Salad
Hawaiian Pasta Salad
If you've only been going to the grocery store once every few weeks, you've probably been stocking up just like I have. I'm finally getting to the bottom of my freezer and grocery day is still a few days away. I've managed to use up a lot of old frozen products I had (roasted green… Continue reading Hawaiian Pasta Salad
Southwestern Chicken Salad
I like making big batches of food whenever I get the chance. Since I mealprep on Sundays, that's easy to do. Meal prepping is all about cooking in big batches and divvying it up throughout the week. Casseroles, sheetpan meals, and skillet dinners are perfect for it. Then, there's meal prepping salads. You can't really… Continue reading Southwestern Chicken Salad
Simple Nicoise Salad
This recipe was originally going to have chicken in it, to make it different from a traditional Nicoise salad. But alas, the forgetful grocery shopper strikes again. It doesn't matter how detailed my list is when I go to the supermarket---I will always forget something. I'm usually able to get my husband to pick it… Continue reading Simple Nicoise Salad
Copycat Olive Garden Salad
It's been a fun, boring, adventurous and relaxing weekend. I took Thursday and Friday off so my weekend was extended by two days. We're about to go into a ratings month at work and I like to have downtime before the big stress begins. I did nothing on Thursday but bingewatch Grey's Anatomy and vacuum… Continue reading Copycat Olive Garden Salad
