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. Rob and I will be moving to the outskirts of a small town I fell in love with many years… Continue reading Chicken Bruschetta Pasta

Ravioli Lasagna
Another day, another stay-at-home-and-work routine. I've got this new way of life down pat. I do the same things almost everyday so I can keep some sort of normalcy during this pandemic. I'll be staying home through at least the end of May, though that could change. I like working from home, but I'm ready… Continue reading Ravioli Lasagna
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
Parmesan Chicken Couscous
If you go to the store right now, chances are you won't find a lot of staples.No spaghetti. No white bread. No name-brand cereal.After experiencing the lack of what you need, you'll turn to replacements. Maybe you grab that weird, green spinach spaghetti instead of the normal kind. You might reach for an overpriced loaf… Continue reading Parmesan Chicken Couscous
Pork Chops with Herby Mustard
For Christmas, my dad bought me this countertop hydroponic garden that can grow herbs and small vegetables. Knowing me, I thought nothing would grow. I've been known to kill just about every plant I've ever owned. Even a fern. A FERN. Something that's virtually unkillable. So, I followed the instructions and took it with a… Continue reading Pork Chops with Herby Mustard
Five Cheese Chicken Spaghetti Squash
Since I work in TV news, I'm constantly busy. I barely have time to take a dinner break at nights. Most nights I have to force myself away from my computer. I'm constantly afraid someone is going to need me or major breaking news will happen in the 3 minutes it takes to walk to… Continue reading Five Cheese Chicken Spaghetti Squash
Shrimp Scampi Spaghetti Squash
That's a lot of alliteration right there in the title. Shrimp. Scampi. Spaghetti. Squash. I swear it was unintentional. It just happened. I just had a spaghetti squash ready to go the other day and shrimp scampi sounded like the perfect meal to make with it. I love that buttery, garlicky dish. It's so rich… Continue reading Shrimp Scampi Spaghetti Squash
Caprese Stuffed Spaghetti Squash
I thought I was done experimenting with spaghetti squash. I thought I had done all that I could with that gourd. I've made spaghetti (obviously), chicken parm, alfredo, lo mein, primavera, BBQ chicken, cajun chicken, chicken piccata, chicken marsala...all with that bright yellow squash. What's left to do?! Well, make it Caprese-style, that's what's left.… Continue reading Caprese Stuffed Spaghetti Squash
Unstuffed Italian Chicken
It's a major pain stuffing chicken. First off, you've got to handle raw chicken. I hate the feel of raw chicken. It's like you're trying to wrangle a slippery, salmonella-laced fish with no scales. I make sure and wash my hands 27 times after cutting or touching chicken. Then you have the "stuffing" part to… Continue reading Unstuffed Italian Chicken
Mediterranean Orzo Salad
I feel like I've been on a weeklong food binger. The holidays are rough, really rough. There's cookies and candies and pies and turkey and stuffing galore. Now is the time to start getting through the end of the leftovers and then rebooting the system. I've got to get some more greens and roughage in… Continue reading Mediterranean Orzo Salad
