Classic Squash Casserole

August 16, 2021 ColleenLeave a comment

Summer produce is at its peak right now. Mid-August is the best time to buy tomatoes, watermelon, peppers, peaches and squash. The farmer's market was packed full of produce when we went this weekend. I love perusing the booths for the best of summer's harvest. Soon, the booths will close up shop and the produce… Continue reading Classic Squash Casserole

What's the side dish you always eat when you make Mexican food? Is it beans? Rice? Corn? Most people choose to eat rice with their Mexican entrees. Whether that's enchiladas, tacos, or tamales, rice just hits the spot when it comes to a nice Mexican dinner. Usually I buy the frozen, bagged rice that Trader… Continue reading Simple Red Rice

A lot of people get emotionally attached to certain food items on menus. It's a force of habit among humans. It could be a link to your childhood, your favorite comfort food or simply a sense of normalcy you associate with certain foods. When the Mexican pizza left Taco Bell's menu, I felt incredibly sad.… Continue reading Copycat Chick-fil-A Coleslaw

If there's one countertop appliance I use more than any other in my house, it's probably my rice cooker. The air fryer comes in second, though. We've gone through rice cookers over the years like underwear. They burn out pretty easily if you're using them as much as we do. Rice is one of our… Continue reading Coconut Cilantro Lime Brown Rice

It's mid-June. Your family is over for a cookout. You've been tasked with providing the sides. What do you make? A lot of people will throw chips and dips out there and be done with it. Hey, there's nothing wrong with that. It's simple, doesn't need a lot of effort, and is typically cost-effective. If… Continue reading Classic Broccoli Salad

Cheesy-Garlic Zucchini & Corn

It's the summer and that means quick meals in the kitchen. Nobody wants to linger over a hot stove or oven when the sun is baring down on your home. It can reach triple digits fast here in Oklahoma (in fact, it's going to be around 100 on Friday) and no matter how powerful your… Continue reading Cheesy-Garlic Zucchini & Corn

There are many different recipes that will come in and out of your life that hold a significant meaning. My mom's potato salad is one of those.

Recycling is a cornerstone of my kitchen. I try to recycle leftovers, unwrapped foods, and half-used produce. We don't actually get recycling out here in the country, so I try to live as eco-friendly as a possibly can. Don't get me wrong, we still throw away way too much food. The entire planet does! Food… Continue reading Classic Fried Cabbage

Sweet & Spicy Collard Greens

Do you thoroughly wash your produce when you get home from the grocery store? I know I don't do it as often as I'd like. Anything that says "triple cleaned" on it I usually just throw right into the crisper drawer without a second thought. Is that bad? Probably. Have I ever gotten sick off… Continue reading Sweet & Spicy Collard Greens
