One of my absolute favorite fast food meals in the world is a bowl from Chipotle. When you're on the go, or in a pinch, nothing can quite satisfy that hunger like a bowl of delicious Mexican food. I use the same toppings everytime, too: grilled peppers and onions, pico, cheese, sour cream and guacamole.… Continue reading Copycat Chipotle Carnitas Bowl

Southwestern Turkey Salad
It's finally here. The day that I can debut pictures taken with my new camera! I'm still figuring out all the kinks. I'm not a still photographer. I was a videographer for years, using big & bulky Panasonic and DVC cameras...not small, beautiful DSLR's. I've also discovered I might be blinder than I realized---several pictures… Continue reading Southwestern Turkey Salad
Al Pastor Pork Chops
I've been in a tizzy trying to clean out my freezer. My freezer was in such bad shape: things thrown in willy-nilly, half packages of pie crusts and frozen vegetables, freezer-burned items. A much needed deep-clean was in store for me. I had six pork chops in there of various varieties. A couple of bone-in… Continue reading Al Pastor Pork Chops

Shrimp Fajita Pasta

I've tried just about everything: zoodles, spaghetti squash---but this is the first time I've tried pasta made out of something other than sticky, glutenous carbs. While perusing the aisles at Trader Joe's last week, I found a red lentil pasta. Intriguing. I've had whole wheat pasta… Continue reading Shrimp Fajita Pasta
Tex-Mex Turkey Sloppy Joe’s
We've pretty much gotten rid of beef from our diet. Except for the occasional steak (you can't completely give up beef from your diet if your a Texan) beef is rarely made in my kitchen. A good substitute for any ground beef dish is ground turkey. Season it up well and it's pretty much and… Continue reading Tex-Mex Turkey Sloppy Joe’s
Chili Lime Catfish & Corn Tacos
Oklahoma City is blessed to have such a diverse cuisine range in its restaurants. We have a little bit of everything here; Southern homecooking, Korean, Thai, Indian, even African food. But one of the shining stars in the food establishment engrained in our city hails from the southwest side. Once you drive south of I-40,… Continue reading Chili Lime Catfish & Corn Tacos
