We're getting closer and closer to moving into our first house. This whole closing period has been the most stressful event ever, and I'm ready to get it done and move out into the country.

Caprese Turkey & Biscuits
It's Monday, you guys. I know some of you are in a daze, not knowing what day it is. It's hard to keep track when you never leave the house. I am currently working-from-home so I kind of have to keep track of what days I need to go to work. I've been enjoying the… Continue reading Caprese Turkey & Biscuits
Bacon Balsamic Brussels Sprouts
I've spent the entire day cooking. Breakfast, lunch and dinner has been meal-prepped for the week. I even made time to make a snack for the week ahead: some of the best chicken wings I've ever had.

Sheet Pan Balsamic Chicken & Vegetables
What is it with sheet pans? All of mine look like someone threw them into an incinerator, pulled them out, and threw them in again for good measure.

BLT & Balsamic Chicken Salad
You guys. It has been unbearably hot here. It got up to 108 degrees on Friday. Thursday night, at 10 p.m., one hour after the sun went down---it was still 100 degrees outside. Add to the disgusting heat this: my car's air conditioning doesn't work. My car is a raggedy beast, but it's lasted my… Continue reading BLT & Balsamic Chicken Salad

Fresh, crispy vegetables. Sweet, ripe tomatoes. Grilled chicken. Summer is finally here, y'all, and I'm loving it. I'm sure in about 2 weeks I'll be completely over the wicked Oklahoma heat, but for now---I'm soaking up the sunshine, what little of it I actually see. I love summer produce. Everything from squash to cucumbers, tomatoes… Continue reading Chicken Bruschetta Zoodles

One of the best feelings in the world is cleaning out your kitchen when making a meal. That can of diced tomatoes you've had lingering in the back of the cabinet? Throw it in. Half-used bags of shredded cheese? Let's get rid of them! The greatest meals I've ever whipped together were ones where I… Continue reading Italian Potato Nachos
