Is there anything more "fall" than apples and cinnamon? Maybe pumpkin. Maybe the crunchy leaves under your boot steps. But there's something so heartwarming and magical about eating cinnamon apple flavored things when fall is here. Apple-picking is far out of our grasp in Oklahoma, but that doesn't mean we can't pretend like the apples… Continue reading Stovetop Cinnamon Apples

Low Carb Sausage Pizza Bites
It's a pretty busy next few weeks around the Welcher household. We're in the thick of football season, and our station has OU games on our air this weekend (OU-Texas, to boot) and next weekend. I'll be working with very few days off over the next few weeks, but it will be worth it in… Continue reading Low Carb Sausage Pizza Bites
Cheeseburger Stuffed Mushrooms
Do you find yourself struggling to get out of bed? Do you have inner conversations with yourself in the morning that talk you out of going to the gym or working out? Would you rather lay in bed for an hour scrolling through your phone than getting up and taking on the day? I would… Continue reading Cheeseburger Stuffed Mushrooms
Smoked Salmon Cucumber Bites
The search is on for the perfect midday snack. As the days get longer, and the temperatures get hotter, I'm on a mission to find those perfect bites for a hot summer afternoon. I always take a snack with me to work to eat around 4 in the afternoon. I usually bring a selection of… Continue reading Smoked Salmon Cucumber Bites
Texas Fudge
Have you ever heard of fudge made with Velveeta? I'm not talking about a savory, cheesy fudge. I'm talking about a chocolate fudge that gets its creaminess from Velveeta cheese. That's a weird recipe I stumbled upon in an old church cookbook a few years ago. I googled it and apparently making fudge with Velveeta… Continue reading Texas Fudge
Cocktail Sunflower Seeds
I've never been a huge fan of sunflower seeds. The problem I have with them isn't taste; it's how exactly to eat them. I'm not a master at getting the shells off and enjoying what's inside. I don't like to work for my food. I'd rather pop a handful of almonds or cashews instead of… Continue reading Cocktail Sunflower Seeds
Spicy Pimiento Cheese
I must confess. I may be married, but I've been in love since far before I met him...I'm talking since I was in grade school. My second love? Cheese. All things cheese. My profound love for cheese probably comes from my mom, or my grandma. My mom would always have special cheeses out for holiday… Continue reading Spicy Pimiento Cheese
Turkey & Cranberry Sliders
Whoever invented the Hawaiian roll slider, bless them. I've made these things a dozen different times in a dozen different ways. They always turn out marvelous. There's just something about Hawaiian rolls that makes them so good. You could probably slap a piece of tree bark and gravel between two sides of a Hawaiian roll… Continue reading Turkey & Cranberry Sliders
Mini Everything Cheese Balls
I've spent the whole weekend baking and meal prepping. Two different types of cookies, a fritatta, salad, soup, and two meals later---and I think I'm finally done. I usually cook everything on the weekends, but I was in full force cook mode this weekend. The kitchen is my calming, serene place and I needed a… Continue reading Mini Everything Cheese Balls
Pumpkin Spice Chex Mix
Halloween is still three days away, but the city Rob & I live in had their citywide Trick or Treating yesterday. Ghosts and goblins and princesses came to our door while we were carving pumpkins and celebrating this spooky time of year. We also went to go see the new Halloween movie yesterday. I was… Continue reading Pumpkin Spice Chex Mix
