I'm not going to lie. I haven't been eating the most healthy things while on lockdown. I'm not sure any of us have. When it seems like the world is ending, all you want to do is reach for the comfort food. That box of macaroni cheese, the tightly wrapped ice cream sandwich, the container… Continue reading Fruit Salsa with Cinnamon Pie Chips

Key Lime Powerbars
Woo. It has been one heck of a week. If you haven't been keeping up in the news (both national and local), Oklahoma teachers walked out of the classroom on Monday and have not been back since.

These browned cheesy… Continue reading Barley & Chicken Casserole
Italian Potato Nachos
One of the best feelings in the world is cleaning out your kitchen when making a meal. That can of diced tomatoes you've had lingering in the back of the cabinet? Throw it in. Half-used bags of shredded cheese? Let's get rid of them! The greatest meals I've ever whipped together were ones where I… Continue reading Italian Potato Nachos
Cherry Pie Cookies
Good news, guys. I didn't get botulism! It's now been over 24 hours, so I think I'm good. I'm breathing a sigh of relief. If you want to read why I thought I would get botulism, click here. Since I'm botulism free (I think), I'm celebrating by eating all the good stuff. My coworker brought… Continue reading Cherry Pie Cookies
