I've been having a ball on TikTok lately making recipe videos. If you have TikTok, and want a more visual representation of my recipes, follow me at "modfarmgirl". It's reinvigorated my creativity in the kitchen. Don't get me wrong, I've always had a creative streak when it comes to cooking, but now I'm finding all… Continue reading Spaghetti with Chicken and Bacon Ragout

Black Bean and Turkey Soup
It's going to be a hot one here today. We're almost going to reach 100 degrees. That's unheard of for this time of year. We should be watching the leaves change colors while cozied up under a chunky-knit sweater. I should be able to sip hot cocoa outside on my porch wrapped up in a… Continue reading Black Bean and Turkey Soup
BBQ Chicken Tostadas
I swear, if I don't get a new oven sometime soon...I might lose my mind. I was CRAVING tostadas the other day and I've only ever made them in the oven. Sure, you can get the pre-made tostada shells (which is what I did) but how the heck are you going to melt the cheese… Continue reading BBQ Chicken Tostadas
Sweet Potato Chowder
Anyone else noticing the meteoric rise of the sweet potato? What was once relegated to holiday meals only, has now become a cult favorite online. People are using sweet potatoes in ways never seen before. They are substituting their more starchy cousin for everything from potato salad to fries. Sweet potatoes have also been speaking… Continue reading Sweet Potato Chowder
Summer Sausage Skillet Dinner
The changing of the seasons makes me long for the previous one. I love fall, don't get me wrong, but when it really turns into fall I start to miss summer. Just like when it turns into winter I miss fall. In the spring, I find myself yearning for snow. Summer, I miss those springtime… Continue reading Summer Sausage Skillet Dinner
Pesto Grilled Cheese
I'm writing this through itchy, watery eyes right now. My fall allergies are out of control. The ragweed and grass pollen in the air in Oklahoma is extremely high, irritating my eyes and nostrils. It probably doesn't help that we've had the windows open for days. I refuse to turn the A/C back on at… Continue reading Pesto Grilled Cheese
Hoisin Pork Lettuce Wraps
I've been in the mood for lettuce wraps lately. I mean, I've been really craving them. I love using crunchy butter/Boston lettuce and wrapping up stuff like ground chicken, Thai-style vegetables and even just lunch meat. Lettuce wraps are always a super refreshing meal and great for a lunch when working at home. You could… Continue reading Hoisin Pork Lettuce Wraps
Greek Chicken and White Bean Salad
Anyone else hoarding cans of beans right now? It's the perfect time of year to do that. You need beans for just about any soup you want to make, so why not have a stash in your pantry during the cooler months? I'm finally starting to thin my stash out a bit, but I plan… Continue reading Greek Chicken and White Bean Salad
Catfish Po’Boy Tacos
When my parents were down here to help us move into our new home, my mom bought two big bags of catfish nuggets. We had planned to do a fish fry one night, but all of the work we had to do on the house bogged us down so we never got around to it.… Continue reading Catfish Po’Boy Tacos
Meatball & Tortellini Soup
Happy first day of fall, y'all! It's officially, unequivocally soup weather! It's also pumpkin spice, hot apple cider, pie & squash weather. Fall is my all-time favorite season not only because of the food, but because of the crisp coolness in the air and the beautiful yellow and orange colors. I love everything about fall… Continue reading Meatball & Tortellini Soup
