One thing I love about the summer months is all the wonderful side dishes. They usually steal the show at any cookout you're at. We've all had burgers and hot dogs before, but have you ever seen a super pink ambrosia? How about elote pasta salad? Maybe tried a broccoli-ramen slaw? I love making different… Continue reading Broccoli Apple Salad

Broccoli Noodle Soup
People swear by certain soups in their life. I've heard rave reviews over Panera's broccoli-cheese soup. Family members are big fans of Campbell's Bean and Bacon soup. A lot of people can't get enough of Wendy's chili. I prefer to make all of my soups homemade. Who doesn't love a big pot boiling on the… Continue reading Broccoli Noodle Soup
Mother Earth Bowl
Sometimes you really just want something nourishing to eat for dinner. Not just nourishing for the body, but for the soul. That's how I felt last weekend when I went to meal prep for the week. I needed something delicious, filling, and healthy. Something like what I had gotten at the opening of Flower Child… Continue reading Mother Earth Bowl
Teriyaki Turkey Stir-Fry
It's beginning to look a lot like fall... I've got two trees that are already starting to change colors on their leaves. We're expecting a cold front today and we'll have super cool, fall-like weather this entire week. I'm armed with my Bath & Body Works fall candles and pumpkin-spice coffee. I'm ready for this!… Continue reading Teriyaki Turkey Stir-Fry
Chicken Alfredo & Biscuits
If you start to poke around my kitchen, you'll notice an abundance of canned and jarred sauces. I love to keep tomato, alfredo, and curry sauces on hand. There's so much you can do with them. If you need to whip up a dinner real quick, just grab a jar, some protein, and either rice… Continue reading Chicken Alfredo & Biscuits
Skillet Chicken Ramen
During the Dust Bowl/Great Depression, families in Oklahoma got creative with their meals to make them last a long time. Onion burgers were born to stretch ground beef, which was high priced and hard to find. Potatoes and hot dogs were inexpensive so they made their way into most meals. We're not quite there yet,… Continue reading Skillet Chicken Ramen
Chicken Bacon Ranch & Broccoli Casserole
It gets harder and harder to think of new keto meals when you're on this diet and write for a food blog. You don't want to do the same thing everyone else does. Those same recipes that pop up time and time again on Pinterest. The same cheese & meat mixture for dinner. The heavy… Continue reading Chicken Bacon Ranch & Broccoli Casserole
Thai Salmon Stir Fry
I've been hoarding all of these keto ideas and recipes and I'm finally getting around to posting them. Anytime inspiration strikes, I jot it down in my notes on my phone. I'll be laying in bed, about to fall asleep, when I'll think of something like, oh what if I make sloppy joe's but with… Continue reading Thai Salmon Stir Fry
Ham & Bow Tie Bake
I'm still up to my eyeballs in ham. I made that crockpot beer ham a few weeks ago and have turned it into three different dishes---but I still have ham leftover. And that was a small, 3 pound ham, too! If you made a ham for Thanksgiving, you're probably swimming in ham slices as well.… Continue reading Ham & Bow Tie Bake
Beef & Broccoli Salad
I can't believe I'm actually writing this blog post. The idea behind this recipe has been rattling around in my brain for months and I never acted on it. I finally got to work cooking and testing it when I got back from vacation two weeks ago. Then, I forgot about it again. I got… Continue reading Beef & Broccoli Salad
