I hope everyone had a magical Thanksgiving! Up next, the main event: Christmas. It truly is the most wonderful time of year. I FINALLY got a working oven after waiting upwards of 3 months, so now I'm in full holiday baking mode. I've made a batch of M&M cookies already, but other than that, I've… Continue reading Crustless Cranberry Pie

Slow Cooker Blueberry Cobbler
Life without an oven sucks. Our oven has been broken for going more than 2 months now. We've been battling our home warranty company for that time to try and either get it fixed or get a new one. We FINALLY had a warranty-approved repair man come out and look at it and he said… Continue reading Slow Cooker Blueberry Cobbler
Almond Blueberry Overnight Oats
I'm running out of overnight oat ideas! They've been such a hit in my house since I made the first batch of apple pie overnight oats. My husband eats a jar full before he goes to work. So far, this blueberry version might be his favorite. Overnight oats are the answer to just about everything.… Continue reading Almond Blueberry Overnight Oats
Christmas Neapolitan Cookies
When it comes to baking, I tend to stick to the basics. I'm not going to bake a 3-tier cake from scratch. Give me some butter, sugar, and flour and I'll make drop cookies all day long. The easier, the better. These cookies are about as intense as I'll go. I kept seeing people posting… Continue reading Christmas Neapolitan Cookies
Roasted Cauliflower Salad
We're starting to get into the season where salads just don't hold up very well. The colder it gets, the heartier a meal people want. I'm down for a big bowl of soup when it's 50 degrees outside, but a big bowl of salad? That's not really my jam. This salad is a little bit… Continue reading Roasted Cauliflower Salad
Lemon Almond Chicken Salad
There's a long, extended weekend in store for me. I decided to take a few days off this week while my stepdad is in town. I'm headed back to my hometown for a few days to relax and see old friends. As for today, I don't plan on leaving this couch at ALL. I've needed… Continue reading Lemon Almond Chicken Salad
Italian Roasted Broccoli
It's been a while. Well, less than a week, but still. I spent the majority of last week laid up on a couch. I had some kind of respiratory infection and it knocked me out for a while. I finally went to the doctor on Wednesday and got some antibiotics and steroids. Thank god for… Continue reading Italian Roasted Broccoli
Thai Almond Zoodle Bowl
I think I've gotten a contact high from some paint job Rob was working on. Wooh. Not nearly enough ventilation in this apartment, that's for sure. I also made matters worse by busting out the grill pan and grilling up some bratwurst for lunch. The grill pan and brats produced a lot of smoke; I… Continue reading Thai Almond Zoodle Bowl
Moroccan Chicken Stew with Golden Cauliflower Rice
It's tax free weekend here in Oklahoma! It's actually kind of a joke, really. You can only get clothes and shoes tax free, and they have to be less than $100. School supplies are not included, which is 100% weird. School supplies were always included on tax free weekend in Texas. Of course, Texas also… Continue reading Moroccan Chicken Stew with Golden Cauliflower Rice
Buffalo Chicken Meatballs
I've been craving buffalo wings lately. Thankfully, with the diet I'm on, I can eat them with ease. Buffalo flavored anything is my kryptonite. I wanted to make something in the buffalo-style as a snack to satiate my appetite while at work. I found these chicken meatballs and knew they would fit the bill. Also,… Continue reading Buffalo Chicken Meatballs
