I meal prep lunches for my husband for the week every Sunday. Sometimes he'll get two meals to choose from, other times I just make one for the whole week. It's getting harder and harder to come up with new things to make him, though. I've done burrito bowls and chicken and rice a thousand… Continue reading Baked Taco Pinwheels

Farmer’s Breakfast Casserole
This is a classic breakfast recipe. Farm fresh ingredients. Crispy, smoky bacon. Hashbrowns cooked with cheese. Those are all the things people enjoy in a good breakfast-time meal. When I first spotted this recipe, it was simple enough that I'd usually turn the page in my cookbooks. But something about it called out to me;… Continue reading Farmer’s Breakfast Casserole
Buffalo Chicken Pasta Salad
We are drawing near the end of summer. Cookouts and grilling are becoming more sporadic. It's getting harder to find outdoor parties. People are covering up the grill and packing it up for winter. It's a sad time if you truly enjoy summer. It's a bit more bittersweet for me. I love fall and the… Continue reading Buffalo Chicken Pasta Salad
Classic Squash Casserole
Summer produce is at its peak right now. Mid-August is the best time to buy tomatoes, watermelon, peppers, peaches and squash. The farmer's market was packed full of produce when we went this weekend. I love perusing the booths for the best of summer's harvest. Soon, the booths will close up shop and the produce… Continue reading Classic Squash Casserole
BBQ Chicken Salad
There's a great TikTok account that I follow called "Salad Lab". The woman makes famous salads everyday. The Kardashians favorite salads, the original Waldorf salad, Panera salads, etc. She'll include celebrity favorite salads--I think a few days ago it was Jennifer Lopez's favorite kale and queso salad. I get tons of inspiration from her account.… Continue reading BBQ Chicken Salad
Honey-Jalapeno Corn Muffins
There are millions of different cornbread recipes out there. I've made quite a few of them. But there are none quite like this cornbread recipe. I was on the hunt for a new recipe a few weeks ago. If you've ever had cornbread cravings before, they are real. I had everything I needed at home… Continue reading Honey-Jalapeno Corn Muffins
Chopped Chicken Taco Salad
I've made at least a dozen different versions of taco salad in my life. My all-time favorite version is a classic: meat, ranch-style beans, lettuce, cheese, tortilla chips and Catalina dressing. It's not really the most healthy salad on the planet, but it sure is good. I've made a nice turkey version before with mini… Continue reading Chopped Chicken Taco Salad
Sweet & Spicy Collard Greens
Do you thoroughly wash your produce when you get home from the grocery store? I know I don't do it as often as I'd like. Anything that says "triple cleaned" on it I usually just throw right into the crisper drawer without a second thought. Is that bad? Probably. Have I ever gotten sick off… Continue reading Sweet & Spicy Collard Greens
Francine’s Salad
There are plenty of meals and recipes that my family has been making for decades. I've got "super secret" family recipes for banana pudding, sweet potato casserole, chocolate pecan pie, and chicken fried steak. If you ever go to a family potluck or cookout and think to yourself, "oh, I hope so-and-so is coming, because… Continue reading Francine’s Salad
Mexican Shepherd’s Pie
While I was on the hunt for a new comfort food recipe the other day, I stumbled across this Shepherd's Pie recipe. Shepherd's Pie is the ultimate comfort meal. Potatoes, ground meat, and veggies all combine to make this insanely craveworthy dish. This recipe, though, is just a tad different. It combines a lot of… Continue reading Mexican Shepherd’s Pie
