You've heard of Chili Mac before, but what about TACO MAC??? Honestly, it's pretty much the same thing but with a slightly different flavor profile. You use taco seasoning (which usually DOES include chili powder) and that's what makes this Mac different from Chili Mac. If you really want to make things more taco-fied, before… Continue reading Taco Mac

Fully Loaded Tomato Soup
I'm souped out for the forseeable future. I've probably made more soups this winter than ever before. It's been a rough one. We've had the lowest temperatures Oklahoma has ever had before, tons of snow, and an insane ice storm to kick off the season. I'm ready for warmer temps, blooming flowers, and cold beers… Continue reading Fully Loaded Tomato Soup
Taco Lentil Soup
We had a great deal of snow fall this past weekend. Oklahoma is starting to look like most northern states this winter instead of what it usually looks like: a dry an barren wasteland. I froze my tush off and sat under my bird feeder to try an snag a shot of our resident cardinal… Continue reading Taco Lentil Soup
Dallas Cowboys Soup
This football season has been bizarre, to say the least. It's usually a big fanfare around here when August turns to September and football teams start to kick off. This year we weren't sure if that was even going to happen, much less if it should happen. We've covered game cancellations, COVID-19 test results of… Continue reading Dallas Cowboys Soup
Italian Beef Stew
Hello, all! It's been a hot minute since my last post. There's good reason for that...or, actually, a bad reason for that: I had coronavirus. I've been bed-ridden for more than a week and only just now started to feel better. I'm one of the lucky ones, though. I had a relatively mild case and… Continue reading Italian Beef Stew
French Onion Chicken Pasta
When I cook and shoot pictures of my meals, I use 2 different SD cards. One is in my camera at all times, the other is usually in my computer. I switch them out when I need to get pictures off the other.That means I have pictures of meals on some of these cards that… Continue reading French Onion Chicken Pasta
Italian Chicken & Orzo Soup
You ever open up your pantry and stand there for what seems like an eternity trying to decide what to make for dinner? I do. It happens to me more often than not. I've constantly got those gears churning in my head in the kitchen, trying to decide what to make with the haphazard ingredients… Continue reading Italian Chicken & Orzo Soup
Parmesan Chicken Couscous
If you go to the store right now, chances are you won't find a lot of staples.No spaghetti. No white bread. No name-brand cereal.After experiencing the lack of what you need, you'll turn to replacements. Maybe you grab that weird, green spinach spaghetti instead of the normal kind. You might reach for an overpriced loaf… Continue reading Parmesan Chicken Couscous
Creamy Meatball Soup
I can count on one hand the "winter-like" days we've had so far this year. It's been relatively mild compared to past winters. We've lucked out and had many weekends of 60 degree weather. The grass has even started to turn green here; mistakenly thinking it's spring already. Once the Bradford pear trees that line… Continue reading Creamy Meatball Soup
Portuguese Caldo Verde
One of my favorite things to eat for breakfast when I was a kid was Eggo waffles with peanut butter and syrup. I would slather the peanut butter on the golden, crispy waffles so it filled almost every hole. You'd get a mouthful or peanut butter in every bite that way. Drizzle a bunch of… Continue reading Portuguese Caldo Verde
