It's been awhile since I've made a casserole. Though they're one of my favorite ways to make meals, casseroles don't really scream keto. All the recipes in old-timey cookbooks call for tons of carbs--like potatoes---or oodles of noodles. Finding a good keto casserole can truly become a chore. I have been able to make up… Continue reading Pesto Caprese Chicken Casserole
Woo! This recipe is a mouthful. I mean, the title is a mouthful. It's the best way to describe these burgers, but also the longest! I'm not usually one to make homemade burgers or burger patties (thanks, frozen pre-made versions), but I decided it was time to start. Red meat was out, so I went… Continue reading Turkey Burgers with Sun-Dried Tomato Aioli
I'm a Trader Joe's fanatic. Oklahoma City got its first TJ's a few years ago and I've been making a weekly or bi-weekly trip ever since. Now, Trader Joe's is not my normal grocery store of choice. I usually go there to try out new things, peruse, or buy olive oil. Trust me when I… Continue reading Pork Belly Stir Fry

I'm trying to make a snack for our work Super Bowl party on Friday but messed up the first version, baked… Continue reading Buffalo Chicken Salad
Today, I snapped. I ate three cookies. One of my coworkers brought in some homemade sugar cookies with icing and I went in for the usual "smell but don't touch" trick and failed. After eating one--I was in heaven. Two more cookies later and I felt bad about my poor choices in life. I won't… Continue reading Chicken with Creamy Mustard Sauce
Skewering things and cooking them is one of my favorite ways to make dinner. It's easy to put together and takes no time to cook. The best kebabs always have a protein (I've made fish, turkey, pork and chicken before) and plenty of veggies that go together. I like to skewer zucchini and onions; those… Continue reading Chicken, Bacon & Mushroom Kebabs
