I feel like Brussels Sprouts get a bad rap. People either love them or hate them, and most people HATE them. Maybe it's their stinky smell (it's rather unpleasant when you microwave them especially) or their thick, crunchy texture. I believe most people have just had them served all wrong. Boiled or steamed Brussels sprouts… Continue reading Sweet Chili Turkey & Brussels Sprouts

Sausage & Pepper Wontons
I was gifted a few cookbooks the other day and I immediately set out to cook something from inside of them. A few things in an air-fryer centric cookbook caught my eye and almost all of them were wontons/potstickers. I have long been cooking wontons in my air fryer (my favorite are the Bibigo chicken… Continue reading Sausage & Pepper Wontons
General Tso’s Chickpeas and Vegetables
I like to incorporate a meatless meal at least once a week. Sometimes my meatless meal is simple: oatmeal for breakfast. Other times, I go out on a limb and make a meatless dinner. It's hard breaking out of that mindset that you HAVE to have a protein and it HAS to be meat. It's… Continue reading General Tso’s Chickpeas and Vegetables
Sweet Chili Turkey Meatballs
I'm here today to admit a problem. I am a sauce hoarder. I can't help myself. I buy sauces that look or sound good, use them once or twice, then they're left to languish in my fridge. You should see the door of my fridge. It's packed to the brim with dozens of different sauces.… Continue reading Sweet Chili Turkey Meatballs
Chicken Fried Quinoa
Quick! Tell me your go-to Chinese takeout order! If you're thrown on the spot, I bet a lot of you say chicken fried rice. My favorite takeout order? Lo mein and hot and sour soup. But my husband will order chicken fried rice almost every single time. It's a classic and it hits the spot… Continue reading Chicken Fried Quinoa
Veggie Noodle Stir-Fry
I'm finally, finally getting to the end of a bunch of recipes I made a few weekends ago. I try to post as many times a week as I can, but this week has been hectic. Between getting people out to our house to cut down limbs from October's ice storm, to accidentally sleeping in… Continue reading Veggie Noodle Stir-Fry
Sweet Thai Chili Stir-Fry
Every Sunday I meal prep for the week ahead. I make two meals for my husband to take to work for lunch, then a few meals for dinners throughout the week (plus snacks and salads when I decide to make them). I've been experimenting with what my husband will eat for lunch because I want… Continue reading Sweet Thai Chili Stir-Fry
General Tso’s-Style Ground Chicken
If you love making your own Chinese food at home, stick around until the end. It's -2 degrees here in Oklahoma and it's now been more than a week since I left the house. The Mobile Meals program I volunteer with has been closed. I'm working from home so I don't need to drive into… Continue reading General Tso’s-Style Ground Chicken
Chile Garlic Shrimp
I've been dying to find new shrimp recipes. I love shrimp. I adore it. Shrimp was my favorite food growing up. When my mom would ask me what I wanted for my birthday dinner, half the time it was some form of shrimp or seafood. Shrimp was always a fancy, but not too fancy form… Continue reading Chile Garlic Shrimp
Honey Sriracha Chicken
Since we've gotten a Costco membership, I've been shopping there once a month for meat. We buy meat is BULK. I get a big thing of chicken that will last me all month, ground turkey, shrimp, sausage, bacon--you name it. I've been trying to cut down on my grocery shopping trips and Costco is the… Continue reading Honey Sriracha Chicken
