There's a crisp chill in the air. I can hear the leaves bristling in the wind. Pumpkin spice creamer fills my cup of coffee to the brim. It's officially fall in Oklahoma and it sure feels like it, too. A cold front blew through last night and covered Oklahoma in a thick, humidity-lacking cool temperature… Continue reading Chicken Pot Pie Gnocchi

Smoky Chicken & Potato Sheet Pan Dinner
You ever make something and then immediately after it's done, you realize where you went wrong? That's what happened with this dinner recipe I made up the other weekend. I wanted a tray bake so bad for dinner, and used what I had in my kitchen to make it. Everything was going great! I had… Continue reading Smoky Chicken & Potato Sheet Pan Dinner
Hot Chicken Salad
There's something about classic casserole recipes that just puts my mind at ease. Chicken and rice will instantly make my day better. Chicken spaghetti will fill me up with warmth and happiness. Stuffed shells or manicotti will make me dream of better days. One thing I've noticed in a lot of vintage cookbooks is something… Continue reading Hot Chicken Salad
General Tso’s Chickpeas and Vegetables
I like to incorporate a meatless meal at least once a week. Sometimes my meatless meal is simple: oatmeal for breakfast. Other times, I go out on a limb and make a meatless dinner. It's hard breaking out of that mindset that you HAVE to have a protein and it HAS to be meat. It's… Continue reading General Tso’s Chickpeas and Vegetables
Portobello Wraps with White Bean Spread
I've been really breaking out of my shell when it comes to vegetarian/vegan meals. This recipe is not something I would have made a few years ago. I like to incorporate vegan/vegetarian meals into my diet, but this recipe is a little out there. First, you make your own bean spread (almost like a hummus… Continue reading Portobello Wraps with White Bean Spread
Veggie Noodle Stir-Fry
I'm finally, finally getting to the end of a bunch of recipes I made a few weekends ago. I try to post as many times a week as I can, but this week has been hectic. Between getting people out to our house to cut down limbs from October's ice storm, to accidentally sleeping in… Continue reading Veggie Noodle Stir-Fry
Italian Sausage Saute with Garlic Parmesan Polenta
I had forgotten how much I love polenta. It's like this wonderfully homey corn cake that goes so well with any kind of pasta sauce you can put on top of it. I couldn't find the tube stuff at the grocery store the other day (it's a guilty pleasure of mine, I'm sorry for all… Continue reading Italian Sausage Saute with Garlic Parmesan Polenta
Mushroom Bourguignon
Hello y'all! It's a beautiful day here in Oklahoma. The temperature will reach 60 degrees before the sun goes down, it's bright and sunny, and the birds are chirping. I understand most of the Eastern United States is looking at a completely different scenario right now. A lot of people are buried under feet of… Continue reading Mushroom Bourguignon
Chicken & Wonton Soup
You ever see a recipe in a video and think, "I can make that, and I can make it better?" Welcome to my world. I scroll aimlessly through TikTok sometimes and see all of these good recipes and think that I can make them better. Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn't. This is one… Continue reading Chicken & Wonton Soup
Turkey & Wild Rice Salad
I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas! Our small, pandemic-fied Christmas meant it was just me and my husband over the holidays. I don't really know how to just cook for two, so I have a TON of leftover right now. I've been repurposing them when I can. My husband will be eating Shepherd's… Continue reading Turkey & Wild Rice Salad
