Green Goddess Chicken Salad

March 15, 2023March 15, 2023 Colleen1 Comment

If you buy herbs in the grocery store, you probably know all to well the problem of biting off more than you can chew. There's nothing worse than wasting food, in my opinion. And yet fresh herbs always seem to go to waste in my kitchen. I always need fresh basil, parsley or dill for… Continue reading Green Goddess Chicken Salad

Green Goddess Chickpea Salad

There's little buds on the redbud trees and the Bradford Pear trees are blossoming. Spring is in the air here in Oklahoma! In just a few weeks, everything will green up and the daffodils will start blooming. Spring is my favorite time of year in Oklahoma, not just because of the return of beauty to… Continue reading Green Goddess Chickpea Salad

Kani Salad

January 15, 2023 ColleenLeave a comment

This time of year is always so bleak and gloomy. The holidays have come and gone. Long, hard winter months are ahead. The landscape is gray and dry, the wind cold and stinging. Winter comes along after the New Year and encompasses every part of our daily life. The next three to four months will… Continue reading Kani Salad

Chopped Tuna Salad

Your timeline is probably filled with decadent cakes and starchy sides right now. In the days leading up to Thanksgiving, you're bombarded with all sorts of delicious, filling foods. You need a break, though. You've got to prepare your stomach, and your mind, for a feast on Thursday. Why not save some room in the… Continue reading Chopped Tuna Salad

Barbecue Shrimp Salad

October 2, 2022October 2, 2022 Colleen2 Comments

When I peruse through old cookbooks from the 50's, 60's and 70's, I find a lot of "barbecue" recipes that don't actually use a grill or smoker. A lot of people used to barbecue things in the oven. It's fallen out of favor over the years (or people just call it something else) but I… Continue reading Barbecue Shrimp Salad

Cowboy Salad

May 29, 2022May 29, 2022 Colleen2 Comments

I was tasked recently with coming up with a salad that was hearty enough to satisfy big appetites. The word "salad" and "hearty" aren't typically used together in the same sentence. Salads are meant to be light and refreshing, not heavy and hearty. Regardless, I needed to make something that appealed more to those last… Continue reading Cowboy Salad

Spring Roll Salad

Thank God Oklahoma had a cold front move through last week. We were busy melting away up until last Thursday. Instead of low 80's during the day and 50-60s at night, which is the typical case for May, Oklahoma was having a heatwave of upper 90's during the day and high 70s at night. It… Continue reading Spring Roll Salad

Greek Vegetable Flatbread

April 18, 2022April 18, 2022 Colleen2 Comments

Since I started working a normal human shift (7am-4pm), I've been leaning heavily on cold lunches to get me through the day. I've never really taken a lunch break before. When I worked nightside (2pm-11pm) I would run to the break room, heat up my dinner, then go back to my desk to eat. Now… Continue reading Greek Vegetable Flatbread

Fully Loaded Cucumber Sandwich

I should dedicate this week to one of my oldest and best friends, Bethany, I suppose. Yesterday I shared our affinity for crab rangoon. Today, I'm sharing our mutual love and adoration for the Italian BMT. When we were in high school, there were very few options for off-campus lunch in our small town of… Continue reading Fully Loaded Cucumber Sandwich

Greek Turkey Bowls

January 12, 2022January 12, 2022 Colleen1 Comment

I'm a seasoning hoarder. I love to pick up new spice blends whenever I can. That means my spice cabinet is overstuffed and overflowing with seasoning. Slap Ya Mama is one of my favorites. I also love Trader Joe's Green Goddess seasoning. A regular Italian seasoning is fine, too. But one of my absolute FAVORITES… Continue reading Greek Turkey Bowls
