I'm getting slightly burned out on chicken. Beef is reserved for special occasions in my house. I rarely cook pork. Seafood is too pricey. Chicken is king when it comes to my meal prepping. But you can only dress up chicken so much before getting real tired of it. That's why I've been doing different… Continue reading Summer Chicken Skillet

Lady Bird Johnson’s Barbecue Chicken
I've been bed-and-couch bound for the last 36 hours. A cold has hit me like a ton of bricks and I've been doing everything in my power to feel like a normal human being again. You know those jokes about how men are babies when they're sick? That's not just men. It's me. I turn… Continue reading Lady Bird Johnson’s Barbecue Chicken
Asparagus Stuffed Chicken Parmesan
I've got to brag on myself a little bit here. I had been feeling pretty unmotivated lately when it comes to the gym. I haven't been in two weeks! I kept making up excuses to make myself forego driving to the gym and instead go home to veg out. It's raining. I got off 4… Continue reading Asparagus Stuffed Chicken Parmesan
Stuffed Poblano Breakfast Bake
When you're limiting your diet to lean proteins like chicken, turkey, and seafood---trying to think of new meals centered around those three things can get tough.

Call it what you will. One of the greatest inventions of all time. The best thing since sliced bread. A food everyone can agree on. A food with thousands of different versions to choose from.

Teriyaki Salmon Bowls
Is there anything better than a bowl full of food? Or anything better than a bowl? I'm talking a complete meal that fits snugly inside a bowl. A meal rounded out with a protein, some grains, and some delicious veg. Seriously, I need an answer to this question. I'm struggling to find a dinner more… Continue reading Teriyaki Salmon Bowls
Wild Rice Pilaf with Sweet Potato & Mushrooms
My pantry is inundated with half-filled containers of random grains, flours, and meals. I've got pearl couscous I need to use, about a cup of quinoa left, and some semolina flour I have no idea what to do with. Such is the life of a random foodie. I get inspired by a recipe and I… Continue reading Wild Rice Pilaf with Sweet Potato & Mushrooms
Spanakopita Baked Potatoes
Greek food has taken over my life. I'm consumed with thoughts of gyros, moussaka, and falafels. Give me feta or give me death! That's what I always say. The thing about Greek food is, well, it's just plain delicious. My favorite is moussaka, and a Greek restaurant (one of many) here in Oklahoma City, Zorba's,… Continue reading Spanakopita Baked Potatoes
Bavarian Meatball Sandwiches
It's been a pleasant weekend of hanging out with friends, getting few things accomplished, and enjoying cookouts. A lot of napping was had yesterday, too. Needless to say, although my weekend was productive in the capacity that I didn't lounge around at home for two days---it was also completely unproductive. I'm just now getting around to my… Continue reading Bavarian Meatball Sandwiches
