You've heard of Chili Mac before, but what about TACO MAC??? Honestly, it's pretty much the same thing but with a slightly different flavor profile. You use taco seasoning (which usually DOES include chili powder) and that's what makes this Mac different from Chili Mac. If you really want to make things more taco-fied, before… Continue reading Taco Mac

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
Turkey & Black Bean Tamale Pie
You ever have these grandiose ideas for dinner, sit down to cook it up, and then it turns out nothing like you had envisioned? That was me cooking this tamale pie recipe. The first problem: I didn't make enough of the "tamale" mixture to cover the top. My second problem: I didn't season my "tamale"… Continue reading Turkey & Black Bean Tamale Pie
Chile Garlic Shrimp
I've been dying to find new shrimp recipes. I love shrimp. I adore it. Shrimp was my favorite food growing up. When my mom would ask me what I wanted for my birthday dinner, half the time it was some form of shrimp or seafood. Shrimp was always a fancy, but not too fancy form… Continue reading Chile Garlic Shrimp
End of Summer Salad
This is it. Summer's last hoorah. Oklahoma is taking the deep dive with the arctic front coming in from Canada tonight. We're not going to get too cold, but we'll finally feel those fall-like temperatures. That means no more sandwiches, wraps and salads. Instead, all of my summer produce will quickly be replaced by fall… Continue reading End of Summer Salad
Sweet Chili Chicken Bowl
It's fall, y'all. Well, I may be a few weeks early. Or in Oklahoma's case, a few months early. But hear me out. I usually set up my fall decorations on August 1st. Why? So I can maximize the amount of time I have with them. I love fall, I love fall colors, and I… Continue reading Sweet Chili Chicken Bowl
Buffalo Chicken Chili
1.4 billion. That's how many chicken wings Americans will consumer today before, during, and after the Super Bowl. It's the single biggest wing occasion in the U.S. If you didn't place an order with a wing place weeks ago, you're S.O.L. today if you want wings. If you're making them yourself, I salute you. Wings… Continue reading Buffalo Chicken Chili
Easy Skillet Chili Mac
I'm wiped, and it's only Tuesday. I pumped up the incline on my treadmill this morning and sweat BUCKETS. Literally buckets were pouring off of me. I don't know why I really wanted to push it to the max this morning---maybe because I'm working all week? Literally. I work 7 days this week! It's okay… Continue reading Easy Skillet Chili Mac
Cajun Chili
It's the rainy, lazy, napfest days of March. Weather like this makes me not want to do a darn thing. I guess I still need to get ready for work, though... This will probably end up being my last soup/stew/chili recipe of the season. I doubt we make it close to freezing again, and there's… Continue reading Cajun Chili
Brisket Chili
The quest for the best chili continues in my household. I've made chili only a handful of times in my life, each time something different. The last time I posted a chili recipe (a few years ago!) I made it with lentils and chicken. A time before, with pumpkin and turkey. I've made regular chilis… Continue reading Brisket Chili
