Pot Pie Baked Potatoes

January 22, 2023January 22, 2023 Colleen1 Comment

I wish potatoes weren't so demonized. Are they the best carb in the world? No. But are they cheap, filling, and still full of essential vitamins and minerals? Absolutely. Potatoes deserve to be in your carb rotation, even if you do so sparingly. They don't deserve to be demonized and left out of the kitchen… Continue reading Pot Pie Baked Potatoes

Chicken and Quinoa Minestrone

It's 3 whole degrees outside. 3. That's it. The wind is howling from the north at a clip of 40 miles per hour, making it feel more like -20 degrees. That is just too dang cold, if you ask me. One thing you need to survive an Oklahoma arctic blast is blankets. LOTS of blankets.… Continue reading Chicken and Quinoa Minestrone

Shepherd’s Pie Soup

September 29, 2022 Colleen1 Comment

I'm still anxiously awaiting soup season. Sure, I'm making soups right now. But it just doesn't taste as good unless the temperatures outside hover around the low 50's. It looks like Oklahoma is on its way to another 2-3 weeks of above-average temperatures and no rain. What the heck is going on? Where is fall??… Continue reading Shepherd’s Pie Soup

Maple Pork Sheet Pan Dinner

Of all the squashes in the world, delicata squash has to be my favorite. It's slightly sweet, slightly nutty, and the perfect ingredient for a fall dinner. It's so great you don't even have to peel it. I always eat the squash skin and all. If you can find delicata at your grocery store, I… Continue reading Maple Pork Sheet Pan Dinner

Basic Hummus

December 14, 2021December 15, 2021 ColleenLeave a comment

Sometimes people need to know the absolute basics of a recipe. How to bake a chicken. How to boil an egg. How to crisp up bacon. I get lost in making unique and extravagant recipes sometimes. I'm not an amateur home cook anymore, but there are plenty of people out there who need those basic… Continue reading Basic Hummus

Chicken Pot Pie Gnocchi

September 21, 2021September 21, 2021 ColleenLeave a comment

There's a crisp chill in the air. I can hear the leaves bristling in the wind. Pumpkin spice creamer fills my cup of coffee to the brim. It's officially fall in Oklahoma and it sure feels like it, too. A cold front blew through last night and covered Oklahoma in a thick, humidity-lacking cool temperature… Continue reading Chicken Pot Pie Gnocchi

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

You ever open up your pantry and stand there for what seems like an eternity trying to decide what to make for dinner? I do. It happens to me more often than not. I've constantly got those gears churning in my head in the kitchen, trying to decide what to make with the haphazard ingredients… Continue reading Italian Chicken & Orzo Soup

After more than a week of not leaving the house, the walls start to feel like they're closing in on you. Don't get me wrong, I love social distancing. Our apartment is cozy and we've got everything we need right here. I'm a homebody and someone who secretly rejoices when plans get canceled. However, I… Continue reading Hawaiian Sheet Pan Meal

Fried Cabbage Slaw

It's one of my favorite vegetables: cabbage.I like it in just about everything. Raw in coleslaw or on top of tacos, cooked down with corned beef or fried with bacon---cabbage is a star in my world.Not to mention the fact that it's cheap. I bought a head of cabbage for 52 cents at the grocery… Continue reading Fried Cabbage Slaw
