I tried something new today. I turned my morning routine upside down. I'm the poster child of routine-following. I do the same thing everyday at the same times: 9-10 a.m.: wake up. Immediately grab phone and peruse social media 10:30 a.m.: actually get out of bed. Try to write a blog post/watch TV. 11 a.m.:… Continue reading Margherita Chicken & Zucchini

Summer Chicken Skillet
I'm getting slightly burned out on chicken. Beef is reserved for special occasions in my house. I rarely cook pork. Seafood is too pricey. Chicken is king when it comes to my meal prepping.

The problem with blogging about meatloaf is taking the pictures. Meatloaf just doesn't...look good. At all. Sometimes it will look like… Continue reading Sausage and Peppers Stuffed Meatloaf
Pesto Caprese Chicken Casserole
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
Italian Sausage Stuffed Portobellos
Making pizza has never been easier. No dough here--just big portobello mushroom caps stuffed with sweet Italian sausage, peppers, sauce and mozzarella cheese.
