I've been really breaking out of my shell when it comes to vegetarian/vegan meals. This recipe is not something I would have made a few years ago. I like to incorporate vegan/vegetarian meals into my diet, but this recipe is a little out there. First, you make your own bean spread (almost like a hummus… Continue reading Portobello Wraps with White Bean Spread

Hummus Ranch Veggie Wrap
The air is brisk. The salt trucks are driving up and down my street. The heater is working overdrive right now. I half-considered not unraveling myself out of my bedroom blankets this morning. Winter is here and it sucks. I haven't been outside in days. I haven't seen the sun in days. The temperature hasn't… Continue reading Hummus Ranch Veggie Wrap
7-Layer Veggie Dip
The hardest thing to curb when you're on a diet is the afternoon snack cravings. You might be at work and those vending machines start calling your name. If you're work from home, that lingering back of potato chips on top of your fridge might start beckoning you with its silent whisper. Heck, sometimes you… Continue reading 7-Layer Veggie Dip
Pesto Grilled Cheese
I'm writing this through itchy, watery eyes right now. My fall allergies are out of control. The ragweed and grass pollen in the air in Oklahoma is extremely high, irritating my eyes and nostrils. It probably doesn't help that we've had the windows open for days. I refuse to turn the A/C back on at… Continue reading Pesto Grilled Cheese
Poblano Corn Chowder
I'm all in when it comes to soup making weather. Right now, my third soup of the season is sitting in my fridge. I've stocked up on canned tomatoes and beans, fresh potatoes and onions. There's a zillion different soup combinations out there just waiting for me to try. I didn't think I could find… Continue reading Poblano Corn Chowder
Black Bean Omelette
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but it's one that I usually take for granted. I've never really been a big breakfast person. 'Give me lunch or give me death!' was my motto as a kid. Now, I'm really starting to embrace breakfast culture. I'm diving into the whacky world of overnight… Continue reading Black Bean Omelette
Classic Fried Green Tomatoes
I'm so happy the woman who lived in this house before me knew what she was doing in the garden. We moved into a fully functional, mature garden with tons of tomato plants and a producing apple tree. There's no way I could've grown those from scratch. I've got a black thumb when it comes… Continue reading Classic Fried Green Tomatoes
Extra Mushroom Alfredo
Well howdy, y'all. I've officially traded in an apartment in the city for a homestead in the country on 1.5 acres of land. Nearly a month ago, Rob and I bought our first home outside of Guthrie, Oklahoma. It's everything I could've dreamed. We've got land, gardens, peace, and quiet...not to mention an apple tree… Continue reading Extra Mushroom Alfredo
Grilled Portobello Sandwiches with Roasted Red Pepper Mayo
I've been having a hard time keeping fresh produce in my house. Either it gets eaten up in a jiffy, or it goes bad before I can get around to using it. I don't know if it's just a poor produce selection at the store, or if maybe my fridge is too hot or too… Continue reading Grilled Portobello Sandwiches with Roasted Red Pepper Mayo
Wine Drunk Pasta
We've been imbibing a bit too much since the pandemic began. I'm not usually one to drink very much, if at all, but lately the White Claw and wine has been calling to me. I guess it's okay since the world is ending or whatever, right? I still keep it to the weekends and I… Continue reading Wine Drunk Pasta
