My first experience with Thai food wasn't that long ago. I'm a relative newbie when it comes to Thai cuisine. There was a Thai restaurant in my hometown, but it was vastly different than the Thai food I've had since then. I'm thinking that place just called itself Thai, but was more like a dumbed-down… Continue reading Thai Peanut Chicken Flatbread

Turkey & Sweet Potato Shepherd’s Pie
I've been on this kick lately of eating comfort foods. Filling casseroles, meat and potatoes, and barbecue. Maybe it's because I know those meals won't be appetizing once summer rolls around, or maybe it's just a random craving I've been experiencing. Who knows. I've really started to enjoy shepherd's pie for dinner, though. I made… Continue reading Turkey & Sweet Potato Shepherd’s Pie
Turkey Tortellini Tetrazzini
Merry Christmas, y'all! I hope you're having a great Christmas day. Rob and I both had to work, but we've made the most of it.

Working in television on a holidy is both mind-numbingly boring and crazed at the same time.… Continue reading Turkey Tortellini Tetrazzini
Cinnamon-Sugar Glazed Carrots

I'm mainly trying to convince you all that corned beef isn't just a once-a-year-dish...so you can try out this phenomenal recipe. I did, in… Continue reading Corned Beef & Cabbage Pasta
Chicken Satay Lettuce Wraps
I have a soft spot in my heart for lettuce wraps. I know, they sound gross. Nothing can compete with a regular 'ol sandwich, right? Wrong! Lettuce wraps are insanely delicious when they're prepared correctly. My favorite are these Thai Chicken Lettuce Wraps which I make for lunch a lot around here: I made this new… Continue reading Chicken Satay Lettuce Wraps
“Never Going Back Again” Stuffed Bell Peppers
It's happening. The greatest band on the planet (Fleetwood Mac, if you weren't aware) is coming to OKC. In March. The month after sweeps. And I'm going. The greatest boyfriend in the world bought us two tickets. He doesn't really know anything about Fleetwood Mac. But, being the amazing boyfriend that he is, he bought… Continue reading “Never Going Back Again” Stuffed Bell Peppers
