If you were to meet me for this first time, and you weren't quite sure where I was from, there would be one dead giveaway: my affinity for Ranch dressing. I feel like the ranch obsession kind of originated in the South. I'm not sure the yankees up north have the stomach for it like… Continue reading Creamy Ranch Cauliflower

Spicy Asiago Zucchini Fries
Okay. I know you've probably seen a billion different recipes for baked zucchini fries on the internet. But hear me out, okay? Mine are different. Mine are zesty. Mine are...well, mine. I made up the recipe after receiving the world's LARGEST zucchini from a friend at work. Seriously, this green gourd had to have been… Continue reading Spicy Asiago Zucchini Fries
Southern Corn Pudding
There's something in the air. I don't know if it is just Oklahoma, or if my allergies are just really that bad. My eyes are all puffy and I can't stop sneezing. Great.

Half the time, the only salads in… Continue reading Southern Broccoli & Cauliflower Salad
Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Peppers
It's 5:44 in the morning and I'm writing this blog post (insert teeth-gritting emoji here). The sadder part? I've been up since 3:45. Why? Because of my weirdo sleep schedule, of course. Since I work overnights on the weekdays, when it comes to the weekends, no matter how hard I try, I can't help but get… Continue reading Buffalo Chicken Stuffed Peppers
Garden Zucchini & Sweet Corn Casserole
We got it! We got our first wedding gift! It may not be much, but...I love it! A while back, I found out that the milling company Shawnee Milling will send newlyweds a sampler box for free. So, I filled out the application, inserted a link to our wedding website, and a few weeks later---this… Continue reading Garden Zucchini & Sweet Corn Casserole
