Oh boy, this recipe is a doozy. I spotted it in my St. Paul Lutheran Church cookbook from Vernon, Texas and knew I had to make it. "Armadillo eggs" are stuffed jalapenos wrapped in a sausage-cheese mixture. This recipe also called for rolling them in Shake n' Bake mix, which I did. This is a… Continue reading Armadillo Eggs

Chicken Alfredo Tortellini Salad
If you have a pasta salad recipe, chances are I've tried it. I'm one of those people who makes pasta salads like a fiend every summer. It's so refreshing to either eat by itself or to serve it with burgers and barbecue. It's my go-to cookout side dish and my ride-or-die lunch at work. Imagine… Continue reading Chicken Alfredo Tortellini Salad
Hot Honey Chicken Salad
I'm trying to get in this mindset that we're living in a much warmer season than it actually is. I'm dreaming of summer, cicadas chirping, beads of sweat rolling down my forehead, and long sunsets. Instead, what I'm actually living in is barren trees, ice crystals on my windshield, and a churning heater. I'm sick… Continue reading Hot Honey Chicken Salad
Hot & Spicy Creamed Corn
It was just a few years ago that I realized you could eat corn raw. I always thought you had to cook it to make it tasty and tender. Wrong. I now add raw corn, straight off the cob, to salads in the summer. It's really the most refreshing thing when it's a thousand degrees… Continue reading Hot & Spicy Creamed Corn
Air Fryer Nashville Hot Chicken
The air fryer I bought 3 months ago is now probably my most used kitchen appliance. It's just so easy to throw something in the air fryer to heat it up. I prefer cooking my frozen vegetables that way (see: air fried frozen Brussels sprouts, my FAVORITE way to cook them). If you need some… Continue reading Air Fryer Nashville Hot Chicken
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
Collard & Cabbage Slaw
It is one hot mother trucker outside. I just checked the temp...102. With a heat index of 107. Noooo thank you. I took our current, almost-uninhabitable heat wave into account when I went to the grocery store today. Salads, barbecue chicken, and sandwiches ruled on my list. Ain't nobody got time for turning on the… Continue reading Collard & Cabbage Slaw
White Chicken Chili
It's always nice to take a break, and a four-day weekend is exactly what I needed. I have Christmas presents to buy, places to go, people to see...well, not those last two parts, but I am definitely behind on my Christmas shopping. I tend to lean procrastinator, so that's no surprise here. I am also very… Continue reading White Chicken Chili
Tuscan Roasted Cauliflower Soup
We've made it to the end of October! Granted, there are a few days left of this glorious month, but still. November and Thanksgiving---and then Christmas!---are right around the corner. Guess what other milestone we're celebrating today? Our first soup recipe of the season! There's a cool nip in the air, and I've got a few pumpkin… Continue reading Tuscan Roasted Cauliflower Soup
Hungarian Pork Tenderloin & Potatoes
It's another football Sunday in this household! Unfortunately, my beloved Broncos weren't playing (on TV in this market), but I still managed to squeeze a few games in for my viewing pleasure. We had an eventful morning, waking up suuuuper early to get ready for our Save-The-Date pictures (squee!) and then had an AMAZING brunch at… Continue reading Hungarian Pork Tenderloin & Potatoes
