If you're one of those people who like to have a plan for everything, then you're my kind of person. I like structure. I like planning for the worst-case scenario. I like routine. If anything unexpected comes up, I can lose my cool really quick. I meal prep lunches for the work week. If I… Continue reading Grab-and-Go Breakfast Burritos

Sweet and Sour Wonton Bowls
Gyms around the New Year are crazy busy. They're bustling hubs of people looking for a fresh start, people kick-starting their New Year's resolutions, and the people who have already been there all year long. You know who you shouldn't find at a gym? Me. I'm the person who legitimately does not know what they… Continue reading Sweet and Sour Wonton Bowls
Easy Make-Ahead Breakfast Sandwiches
Meal prepping will never go out of style. Mark my words. I've been meal-prepping for more than 5 years now. I cook all of my lunches and dinners for the week on Sundays and then eat them throughout the workweek. Sometimes I'll prep a breakfast to eat throughout the week, like overnight oats or freezer… Continue reading Easy Make-Ahead Breakfast Sandwiches
Fully Loaded Cucumber Sandwich
I should dedicate this week to one of my oldest and best friends, Bethany, I suppose. Yesterday I shared our affinity for crab rangoon. Today, I'm sharing our mutual love and adoration for the Italian BMT. When we were in high school, there were very few options for off-campus lunch in our small town of… Continue reading Fully Loaded Cucumber Sandwich
Macaroni Tuna Salad
If there's one thing I love about working normal human hours, it's sitting down to have a nice lunch. When I worked from 2-10:30pm everyday, I would run home after volunteering with my local Meals on Wheels chapter and scarf down lunch really quick before changing for work. Now, I get to pack my lunch… Continue reading Macaroni Tuna Salad
Pork Chops with Corn Stuffing
Oh boy, oh boy. Here we are again preparing for another winter storm. Last February's winter storm was DEVASTATING. Our pipes froze up in the kitchen and bathroom (no damage, thankfully), we lost some more limbs, and the snow came up to my knees. Oklahomans are NOT built for this. We aren't Michigan or Ohio… Continue reading Pork Chops with Corn Stuffing
Rustic Chickpea Stew
Let's face it: beef prices are exorbitantly high. I'm being priced out of beef at an alarming rate. And the more I read about it, the more the "Big 4" are to blame: 4 processing plants that control, basically, the whole beef supply. Because of that, I've stopped buying it. Until something is changed, I… Continue reading Rustic Chickpea Stew
Southwestern Chicken Salad
I like making big batches of food whenever I get the chance. Since I mealprep on Sundays, that's easy to do. Meal prepping is all about cooking in big batches and divvying it up throughout the week. Casseroles, sheetpan meals, and skillet dinners are perfect for it. Then, there's meal prepping salads. You can't really… Continue reading Southwestern Chicken Salad
Sausage and Cauliflower Sheetpan Dinner
Has there ever been a greater glow-up than cauliflower over the last 5 years? Talk about a transformation. From broccoli's pale brother to star of most meals: cauliflower is the true Ugly Duckling in society today. I can't go one meal without incorporating it somehow. Riced cauliflower has been a huge part of my diet… Continue reading Sausage and Cauliflower Sheetpan Dinner
Ham and Cheese Rollups
Breakfast hasn't really been on my radar lately. I've been just drinking bulletproof coffee and fasting until well after my lunch. When I do get down with the first meal of the day, I experiment. Egg cups, omelettes, and other weird low-carb breakfasts. I'm too scared to eat things like breakfast sandwiches made out of… Continue reading Ham and Cheese Rollups
