Oh boy. You really underestimate how much your oven heats up your home until you are baking all day. I had to cook a bunch of recipes this weekend in the oven and got hot. I mean, really hot. I had to fan myself down a few times while wiping away little beads of sweat… Continue reading Buffalo Chicken Twice Baked Potatoes

Garlic Parmesan Chicken and Biscuits
Over the last several weeks, I've been revisiting some classic cookbooks in my collection. I've got a massive collection so it's nearly impossible to go through them all, but I like to peruse a few at a time to spark some inspriation for my weekly menus. I've found quite a few good recipes from a… Continue reading Garlic Parmesan Chicken and Biscuits
Chicken Caesar Salad Pitas
I'm ready to make salads upon salads this spring and summer. The spring produce is out and ready for the taking. There's nothing more refreshing during the hotter months of the year than a big ol' bowl of salad. It's especially helpful when you want to avoid overheating your house with the stove and the… Continue reading Chicken Caesar Salad Pitas
Spicy Chicken Tacos with Southwestern Succotash
It was this time of year two years ago that my husband and I went on a road trip to New Mexico. I had been to New Mexico several different times before then, but I really fell in love with it on that 2019 trip. It's such an enchanting place, with its desert & mountain… Continue reading Spicy Chicken Tacos with Southwestern Succotash
Sweet Thai Chili Stir-Fry
Every Sunday I meal prep for the week ahead. I make two meals for my husband to take to work for lunch, then a few meals for dinners throughout the week (plus snacks and salads when I decide to make them). I've been experimenting with what my husband will eat for lunch because I want… Continue reading Sweet Thai Chili Stir-Fry
Colossal Chicken Salad
By now you probably know that I'm an avid cookbook collector. I've got cookbooks stashed in every nook and cranny of my house. There's two huge bins plus one gigantic bookshelf packed full of cookbooks. I keep buying new ones even though I have no idea what to do with them. I may have a… Continue reading Colossal Chicken Salad
Copycat Kardashian Deluxe Salad
I've always been a huge fan of reality TV. It may seem mindless, stupid, or not worth most people's time. But there's something very relaxing about watching reality TV. It soothes the soul after a long day. Its purpose is what television was intended for: an escape. I've been watching Keeping Up with the Kardashians… Continue reading Copycat Kardashian Deluxe Salad
Caprese Chicken & Rice
I did it! I scheduled a vaccine appointment! Oklahoma opened up our state to phase 3 (which is most Oklahomans, like essential workers) yesterday and as luck would have it, I was signing up on the vaccine portal *right* when they announced phase 3. I managed to snag a highly coveted appointment for tomorrow. I'm… Continue reading Caprese Chicken & Rice
King Ranch Chicken Soup
Ok y'all, I think this is it. I think this is my last soup recipe of the year. I've made a TON of soup recipes this year because of how cold it's been. It's officially the first meteorological day of Spring (spring equinox is in 20 days) and it's March 1st, so I think that… Continue reading King Ranch Chicken Soup
Crispy Lemon Pepper Chicken
Have you ever had Wing Stop? Have you ever tried their garlic-parmesan or lemon pepper wings? Those are my two favorite flavors of wings and nobody seems to do them as well as Wing Stop. They're so crispy and flavorful and absolutely crave-worthy. I dream of those chicken wings in my sleep... I tried to… Continue reading Crispy Lemon Pepper Chicken
