Living in the country is both a blessing and a curse. It's nice being able to do whatever you want with your land when you want. The bad part is, everyone else does that, too. My neighbors (not direct neighbors, but someone along our road) have been popping off fireworks since June 13th. JUNE 13TH.… Continue reading BBQ Turkey Subs with Banana Pepper Slaw

Dill Pickle Soup
People who obsess over pickles are a certain breed. You know the ones: they buy the giant pickles at gas stations and ball games; they'll gladly order pickle juice snow cones; the drink-the-pickle-juice-once-the-jar-is-empty people. I've found that people who are the most in love with pickles are some of the most outgoing, uninhibited types of… Continue reading Dill Pickle Soup
Macaroni Tuna Salad
If there's one thing I love about working normal human hours, it's sitting down to have a nice lunch. When I worked from 2-10:30pm everyday, I would run home after volunteering with my local Meals on Wheels chapter and scarf down lunch really quick before changing for work. Now, I get to pack my lunch… Continue reading Macaroni Tuna Salad
Greek Tortellini Salad
Is there a pasta shortage I don't know about? I know there are supply chain issues on just about everything right now, but pasta?! When I live in the farm belt of the Midwest??? Seriously, my pasta aisle has been wiped clean for about a month now. The only thing that remains is the boxed… Continue reading Greek Tortellini Salad
Greek Turkey Bowls
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
Persian Chicken Salad
We're starting to get into my favorite time of year: early summer. It's not too hot, not too cold, and thunderstorms are forecast for just about everyday of the week. It's the perfect weather to eat fresh fruit, sip on watermelon coolers, and eat a big bowl of salad for dinner. I've got a thousand… Continue reading Persian Chicken Salad
Herb & Cream Cheese Scramble
I woke up this morning in a tizzy. Where am I? What day is it? And most importantly... Why is it so cold in here?? I must've been dreaming real good to not know I was asleep in my bed like usual. As for what day it is, does anybody truly know anymore? And the… Continue reading Herb & Cream Cheese Scramble
Spicy Dill Veggie Dip
Today feels like it should be any other day of the week but Wednesday. Monday? That's what it feels like. This week keeps dragging on so slow. I'm ready for the weekend to get here in a big bad way. Do you ever feel like time is moving slow? I feel that way a lot.… Continue reading Spicy Dill Veggie Dip
Pork Chops with Herby Mustard
For Christmas, my dad bought me this countertop hydroponic garden that can grow herbs and small vegetables. Knowing me, I thought nothing would grow. I've been known to kill just about every plant I've ever owned. Even a fern. A FERN. Something that's virtually unkillable. So, I followed the instructions and took it with a… Continue reading Pork Chops with Herby Mustard
Dill Pickle Chicken Wings
Chicken wing fever is here. With the rise of keto, more people are eating wings. They're the perfect little keto snack. Crispy, fried chicken wings with ranch or chunky blue cheese dressing can be the ultimate snack when you're starving. I'm quite partial to Wing Stop wings. I love their garlic-parmesan and lemon pepper variety,… Continue reading Dill Pickle Chicken Wings
