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

Fully Loaded Pigs in a Blanket
I had no idea what to call this recipe. This is the best I could come up with. I used crescent rolls and breakfast link sausage to make a pigs in a blanket more breakfast-y. To make it even MORE breakfast-y, I added fluffy scrambled eggs and melted cheddar cheese. These little bites are delicious.… Continue reading Fully Loaded Pigs in a Blanket
Bacon Cheeseburger Mac Skillet
I'd love to meet someone who has never made Hamburger Helper. When I was in college, Hamburger Helper was my dinner savior. I made so much of it that I think I made myself sick. My favorite, of course, was the stroganoff (both pasta AND potatoes) and cheeseburger mac. That last one is also my… Continue reading Bacon Cheeseburger Mac Skillet
Chicken Maque Choux
Even though I've never lived in Louisiana, I like to think of myself as an honorary Cajun. I have family in Alexandria and my aunt used to live in Monroe and any chance I get to go to Louisiana I go. I love that state more than my home state and it's mainly because of… Continue reading Chicken Maque Choux
Pepperoni Pizza Pinwheels
My fall decor is officially up and my pumpkin & apple candles are lit. Too bad it's 94 degrees outside. I'm more ready for fall than I am for anything else right now. I'm ready for the temperatures to dip and the hay rides to begin. Every retail store in the nation has had fall/Halloween… Continue reading Pepperoni Pizza Pinwheels
Zucchini Crescent Pie
This recipe comes from a decades-old church cookbook aptly titled 'Look n Cook'. A ladies group at a Methodist church compiled the recipes in the 1960's, but I didn't find the book until this summer. There are no pictures, no special introductions and no information about the history of the church. It simply contains basic… Continue reading Zucchini Crescent Pie
White Wine Chicken Stew
It's soup season and I couldn't be more excited. I've been waiting for this day for months. MONTHS! The 100-degree days have been long and excruciating here in Oklahoma. Our first "major" cold front of the season blew in yesterday and dropped our lows into the brisk 50's. It's been a joy leaving the windows… Continue reading White Wine Chicken Stew
Brownie Pie
September means the start of pie season. I guess you could have pie anytime you want, but don't you normally eat a bunch of pie in the fall/holiday months? I love a good pumpkin pie (the marshmallow pumpkin pie I made last year is AMAZING) and pecan pie also has a special place in my… Continue reading Brownie Pie
Slow Cooker Italian Beef Sandwiches
There are a lot of regional sandwiches I've never had before. I've never tried beef on weck, a classic hoagie, and I hate to admit it---I've never tried an Italian beef sandwich. Pretty much any sandwich hailing from the upper midwest or northeast I've never tried. I'd like to change that, though. My husband and… Continue reading Slow Cooker Italian Beef Sandwiches
Turkey Club Pizza
I should really keep a pen and notebook on my bedside table. Sometimes when I wake up in the morning I remember dreams of recipes. Yes, I dream of recipes. Those dreams include ideas I would have never thought of during my waking hours. The recipes are outlandish, intriguing, and outright weird most of the… Continue reading Turkey Club Pizza
