It never hurts to be adventurous. When you go to your favorite restaurant, do you stick with your normal order? If you do, I dare you to branch out and order something new the next time you go. Look, I know what it's like to be a creature of habit. I adhere to a strict… Continue reading Pesto Chicken with Corn & White Bean Salsa

Spring Pea & Feta Dip
I've spent the last few weeks outside cleaning up flower gardens and planting. It's one of my most favorite times of year: spring. My veggie garden is already starting to sprout (carrots and rainbow chard, here we come!) and I still have plenty of pots and soil I need to use up with some summer,… Continue reading Spring Pea & Feta Dip
Greek Vegetable Flatbread
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
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
Roasted Garlic Feta Dip
"I'm the dip." It's a classic line in the second episode of season 3 of Buffy, my favorite show. The characters are trying to decide what kind of party Buffy's mom is throwing for her return. One of the characters, Cordelia Chase, says "I'm the dip". She brings dip to parties--that's her thing. Opening jars… Continue reading Roasted Garlic Feta Dip
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
Kale & Quinoa Salad
Salad is often overlooked at the Thanksgiving table. Who wants a leafy green salad when they can load up on all the carbs? Stuffing, mashed potatoes and turkey rule the Thanksgiving table, there's no doubt about that. But most Thanksgivings I try to serve a salad as a starter to get everyone's palette ready. A… Continue reading Kale & Quinoa Salad
Honey Roasted Chickpea Salad
Chilly mornings have replaced the steaming heat here in Oklahoma. It's the best time of year when it comes to the weather, and yet it won't last long. You'll need to turn your heater on when you go to work and by the time you get out you'll have to turn the A/C on. Chilly… Continue reading Honey Roasted Chickpea Salad
Falafel & Quinoa Bowls
I've got an extremely short week at work this week (I'm just working Monday - Wednesday) because I'm headed off for an anniversary weekend adventure with my husband. Every year we try to go somewhere new (last year was canceled, obviously, due to COVID) and this year we'll be going to Canton, TX for the… Continue reading Falafel & Quinoa Bowls
Greek Turkey Burgers
It's been a rough week. It may be y'alls Thursday, but technically it feels like Friday for me. While everybody was off barbecuing on the Labor Day weekend, I was at work. I hate when I add an extra day to my work week because I feel thrown off the entire week. I keep thinking… Continue reading Greek Turkey Burgers
