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

Chicken & Broccoli Noodle Casserole
I've been feverishly combing through ancient cookbooks looking for the perfect dinner recipe. It's what I do when I don't have any inspiration for weeknight meals. I'll grab a few cookbooks off my bookcase and then flip through the pages until something catches my eye. There's a "Butter 'N Love" cookbook from the 1970's that's… Continue reading Chicken & Broccoli Noodle Casserole
Classic Broccoli Salad
It's mid-June. Your family is over for a cookout. You've been tasked with providing the sides. What do you make? A lot of people will throw chips and dips out there and be done with it. Hey, there's nothing wrong with that. It's simple, doesn't need a lot of effort, and is typically cost-effective. If… Continue reading Classic Broccoli Salad
Broccoli Apple Salad
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
