I've spent the last few weeks outside cleaning up flower gardens and planting. It's one of my most favorite times of year: spring. My veggie garden is already starting to sprout (carrots and rainbow chard, here we come!) and I still have plenty of pots and soil I need to use up with some summer,… Continue reading Spring Pea & Feta Dip

Greek Vegetable Flatbread
Since I started working a normal human shift (7am-4pm), I've been leaning heavily on cold lunches to get me through the day. I've never really taken a lunch break before. When I worked nightside (2pm-11pm) I would run to the break room, heat up my dinner, then go back to my desk to eat. Now… Continue reading Greek Vegetable Flatbread
Simple Three-Bean Salad
It's a classic side dish and Southern staple, but it has been disappearing from potlucks for decades. Bring back the retro bean salad with this simple recipe! #recipe #foodie #foodblog #blogger #tasty
Fully Loaded Cucumber Sandwich
I should dedicate this week to one of my oldest and best friends, Bethany, I suppose. Yesterday I shared our affinity for crab rangoon. Today, I'm sharing our mutual love and adoration for the Italian BMT. When we were in high school, there were very few options for off-campus lunch in our small town of… Continue reading Fully Loaded Cucumber Sandwich
Vegetarian Shepherd’s Pie
There's nothing like a good shepherd's pie for dinner. I've made a dozen different versions and they are all better than the last. Shepherd's pie dates back for centuries, but it didn't get its name until the mid 1850's. Most shepherd's pies use ground beef or lamb which simmer in a thick, dark gravy with… Continue reading Vegetarian Shepherd’s Pie
Sweet Potato Minestrone
I've gotten used to having a meatless meal ready to go every week. It's a nice change of pace from the normal meat-and-potatoes entree. Instead, potatoes are sometimes the MAIN dish at dinner. Such is the case with this recipe: sweet potato minestrone. This is a typical minestrone (with pasts and veggies) with sweet potatoes… Continue reading Sweet Potato Minestrone
Roasted Mushroom Tacos with Corn Salsa
I've been trying to eat more vegetarian/vegan meals since meat prices are so high right now. So far, I've stuck to one meatless meal a week. This week I made tacos with all veggies and it was phenomenal. Mushrooms have always been my favorite and they're the perfect meat replacement, especially if cooked correctly. Portobello… Continue reading Roasted Mushroom Tacos with Corn Salsa
Honey Roasted Chickpea Salad
Chilly mornings have replaced the steaming heat here in Oklahoma. It's the best time of year when it comes to the weather, and yet it won't last long. You'll need to turn your heater on when you go to work and by the time you get out you'll have to turn the A/C on. Chilly… Continue reading Honey Roasted Chickpea Salad
Falafel & Quinoa Bowls
I've got an extremely short week at work this week (I'm just working Monday - Wednesday) because I'm headed off for an anniversary weekend adventure with my husband. Every year we try to go somewhere new (last year was canceled, obviously, due to COVID) and this year we'll be going to Canton, TX for the… Continue reading Falafel & Quinoa Bowls
Curry Hummus Veggie Sandwiches
There's a gigantic tub of hummus at Costco that reels me in every time I go there. I think it's about 3 pounds of hummus inside the typical plastic container. I've found two different flavors over the last several months that I like, but the red pepper hummus is probably my favorite. I put that… Continue reading Curry Hummus Veggie Sandwiches
