I'm up to my eyeballs in Christmas treats right now. It's not that I'm failing to give the treats out to family friends. I've taken more treats to work than I can counp making so much and then keeping too much around the house. Out of all the things I've made this holiday season, though,… Continue reading Festive Butterfinger Balls

Mini Breakfast Pizzas
You're hustling and bustling and trying to get all of your Christmas shopping done before next Friday. There's a ton of work left to do: decorations, wrapping, planning the big feast. Ain't nobody got time to worry about what's for breakfast, right? My family always keeps it simple on Christmas morning. We usually prep a… Continue reading Mini Breakfast Pizzas
BBQ Chicken Tostadas
I swear, if I don't get a new oven sometime soon...I might lose my mind. I was CRAVING tostadas the other day and I've only ever made them in the oven. Sure, you can get the pre-made tostada shells (which is what I did) but how the heck are you going to melt the cheese… Continue reading BBQ Chicken Tostadas
Grilled Portobello Sandwiches with Roasted Red Pepper Mayo
I've been having a hard time keeping fresh produce in my house. Either it gets eaten up in a jiffy, or it goes bad before I can get around to using it. I don't know if it's just a poor produce selection at the store, or if maybe my fridge is too hot or too… Continue reading Grilled Portobello Sandwiches with Roasted Red Pepper Mayo
Peppermint Mocha Cookies
Peppermint is my jam. When I was a smoker (I know, bad habit, but I quit a long time ago!) I only smoked menthols. I've chewed the exact same type of gum for a decade (Five peppermint). Don't ever hand me a stick of spearmint gum, that's not my thing. I love dinner mints and… Continue reading Peppermint Mocha Cookies
BBQ Chicken Spaghetti Squash Boats
I've spent the last two days trying to readjust my sleep schedule. I usually work nights (11pm-7:30am), but for the next few days I'll be working in the land of the living. It's been more than a year since I've been to work when normal people are there. I'm so used to spending mass amounts… Continue reading BBQ Chicken Spaghetti Squash Boats
Spaghetti Squash Au Gratin
Anyone else have the slightest obsession with cheese? I do. And it's not just a slight obsession, either. I'm talking a full-blown, grade-A love affair with cheese. I think that's why I've been able to stick to this Keto diet so well. I didn't have to give up my torrid affair with cheese. Any diet… Continue reading Spaghetti Squash Au Gratin
Asparagus Stuffed Chicken Parmesan
I've got to brag on myself a little bit here. I had been feeling pretty unmotivated lately when it comes to the gym. I haven't been in two weeks! I kept making up excuses to make myself forego driving to the gym and instead go home to veg out. It's raining. I got off 4… Continue reading Asparagus Stuffed Chicken Parmesan
Green Chile Breakfast Casserole
The mission, if you choose to accept, is to make something different for breakfast this week. Breakfast is often the most overlooked meal of the day. I spent years skipping breakfast and starving to death before lunch. I've since changed up my routine and can't make it in the mornings if I don't eat something.… Continue reading Green Chile Breakfast Casserole
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
